Surgery

So yesterday Gage had surgery, he had to have his tonsils taken out... The nurse said he screamed which I warned them... Out of our 2 boys Gage is the screamer.... LOL all has gone ok... Rough night the first night but hopefully it will get better as the day goes on! Here is a picture of him after surgery. He would be laying there talking to us and the next thing his head hit the pillow and he was out of it... The only thing that we could do to keep him calm was to tell him to watch the heart monitor and the oxygen rates and to try and keep them down to a certain level. It was pretty funny.

Family Pictures

I am finally getting around to getting some pictures on here. Holy cow it has taken me forever.... Here are a few of the pictures that we had taken by April Davis around christmas time... She did an amazing job, it was about 5 degrees outside a week before christmas and foggy... For the conditions that she had to work with I think that they turned out pretty darn good.

WOW

WOW!! I can not beleive that it has taken me this long to make another post... The last 6 months have been so crazy in our lives. I will try to give a little run down on what has been going on in our lives. Lets start with August...
Gage and Oalkey started 1st grade this year. They have Mrs. Painter as their teacher and they absolutly adore her, she has been a wonderful teacher and grate examble for the boys. September was a very hard month for us. I was working on a monday night when I got on of the worst phone calls that I could have gotten. My little sisters little man passed away of SIDS that night. Casheton Cole Erickson was 7 weeks old and was an angel sent from Heaven. There isnt a day that goes by that I dont think of him or my little sister Shianne and her family. By the end of the month things started to look up a little bit. Around the same time Jeremy heard wind of a big lay off that would be happening at this job. In the meantime we were trying to sign on our first home. That brings us to October... We did it, we finally bought our first home.... It was the one... I cant beleive how much work it is to pack everything and move it all. wow we had alot of stuff... thanks to Holly, Robert, Pete, and Austin we got all moved in over one weekend. which i didnt think was to bad. Halloween was next... I couldnt beleive 15 bags of candy... We have never had trick or treaters at the other house.....We also decided to start our own buisness. DESERET Computer Solutions. This has been jers dream to start it and we finally made the step... November, Jeremy turned 30.... It was fun. I got to throw him a party, all of our friends and family came out it was so nice to see them all..... Thanksgiving in our own house...

New Years this year was really calm but a blast... Being in a new house I didnt want a ton of kids over there running threw the house so I decided to have jers mom and sister and her kids come over. It was fun, I made alot of food and snacks and we played alot of games. January... Gage and Oakley tuen 7!!! I can not beleive that my baby boys are 7! They had a fun little party this year.
