December Catch Up

We had a busy week! On the 6th me and Mike saw Nate Bargatze, with the best seats in the house!🤪Tuesday Bensen had his first orchestra concert. Me and Mike went to the dress rehearsal because we had tickets to Lindsey Stirling that night. I felt so bad missing his concert. I was pretty impressed with how good they sounded. He had a lot of family support! We are blessed with amazing family!
Lindsey Stirling was pretty good. So loud and so bright. By the end of the night we were blinded and deaf!
Viv had a basketball game on Wednesday. She is starting to get so good! She only has one game left. She has been pretty fun to watch!
Viv had a tumbling performance on Thursday. She did great, then we went and watched Elsie and Brighams choir concert. They both did great!
Saturday we had our ward Christmas breakfast. After breakfast Viv had another tumbling performance. We helped Josh and Jetta get packed up ready to move. Then we took the kids (Wes didn’t want to go, so Elsie got his ticket) to the Perry theater to watch White Christmas. It wasn’t our favorite. But we still had a great time!

Viv's Birthday Party

Viv finally got her party. This was her first friend party, she was pretty bummed when we made her postpone it. I figured Mike would want some help with this. I am finally hobbling around. Funny story. When Aria Gertge showed up at the party she walked in and I was standing up doing Viv's hair in the living room without my boot on. She said "Where's Miss Chelsea?" I said I am right here! Then she said "Oh, I didn't recognize you without your boot." She is so funny. The last couple of weeks at church she had told me how sorry she is that I am hurt. It was pretty cute.

Viv wanted a Wicked party. I think it turned out pretty good. All the girls got to pick out if they wanted a witch hat or  a tiara. Then we had a little photo booth fun. They ate, played games, and jumped on the tramp. That was a little scary. She loved it and had a great time!

 

Tonsillectomy Buddies

 Tonsillectomy buddies! These two got their tonsils and adenoids out on the 5th. Bensen had a turbinate reduction also. They were both champs! No tears for either of them and they did great. 🤞🏻Bensen said getting your tonsils out is way better than going to school! At about day 3 he had changed his mind. He got so sick and threw up for days! Poor kid!  He ended up looking like Goob. 23Viv recovered much faster, after the first day she refused to take medicine. These are some tough kids! They have so many people that love them! Many came to see them and brought them ice cream, popsicles and things to keep them busy. That was much appreciated!

Happy Birthday Viv!

 
Happy Birthday Vivian! We sure love this girl! She is spunky, witty, funny and so smart! She completes us. This year she said she didn't need any toys, because she already has enough. She asked for books, games, puzzles, and a drum set. She was very happy with the little electronic drum pad we got her.

Also, Kailey married Trevor Truscott on April 19th in the Saratoga Springs Temple. Then had their reception in Joys garage. It was a great day!
