I apologize for the delay, but life...<br />
Here they are!<br />

The words on the tanks read: "This tank was donated to Readingland Academy by friends of the school based in the USA on 3rd June 2019." That's you!<br />

How cool is that?! With donations from family and friends through GoFundMe and outside of it, we were able to pay for the cement bases, attached gutters, and two 10,000 liter tanks, and whatever other necessary work, to collect and harvest rainwater for the school. Jane presented me with the receipts of it all, knowing that our trust in her and your trust in us was of utmost value as funds were shared.<br />

It's common across all of Kenya, and many other countries. Water, because of the infrastructure we have in the USA, is easy for us to take for granted.<br />
Bondo sits a 30 minute drive from the largest fresh water lake in all of Africa, but there is no government infrastructure to bring water to the people. So, the people are left to fend for themselves, and many suffer.<br />

As explained during our fundraising, these water tanks are the most cost effective way to store clean water in rural Africa. Thank you for your generosity and for sharing in our experience. We brought a lot of love with us from you all.<br />

These tanks gifted to Readingland are treasured. Jane and her husband give glory to God for their answered prayers.<br />
The students at Readingland Academy are hardworking and dedicated students. The drama team recently became the regional drama champions and they are currently on their way to compete in the national championship! They are the Readingland Pacesetters, and they are certainly setting an impressive pace.<br />
<br />
It's an honor to have been part of giving this rural school a little more of what it needs to flourish.<br />
So, again we say THANK YOU, "Friends of the school, based in the USA".<br />

I held a surprise open house for him the weekend of Halloween, and I didn't. get. any. pictures. WHAT?!?! It took so much work to plan the shindig and to carry it out without Jake knowing, and I didn't document it with any images. Sad. It turned out really well, though. We had upwards of 70 people here at the house to celebrate Jake. We had our friends, the Nuttalls, come up from Austin to stay the night with us so they could be here. I had food hidden all over the house. I thought for sure Jake knew what was happening when, a few nights earlier, an RSVP from the evite came through on my email as he was sitting at the computer. I flipped, and he was so confused as I rambled an excuse, leaned over, and deleted it. Aye carumba. But it WAS a surprise. People just started showing up to the house, and once Jake got over his confusion, he was really touched and happy as he chatted the night away. We both felt very loved.<br />

Part of Jake's birthday present was a night away. We haven't done that since we've had kids! Hospital visits where another kid joins the family don't count. My mom stayed with the kids so we could go have dinner and stay at the Warwick. We had a lovely and very relaxing time together.</div>

Family flu shot time! They didn't have sniffers, so the drama of everyone getting the needle was a little ridiculous, but the lollies worked their magic, and happy were we. Sprouts is right across the street, so we went there afterward and picked out our Sprouts dinner which we sometimes do. The kids all pick out a vegetable and a fruit, and I get rolls, cheese, and meat to make sandwiches at home. It's a fun group effort.<br />

We hosted Thanksgiving at our house. We had my mom and Duke, the Boomhowers, the Hirsts, and Justin and his son over. This is another event where I wish I would have remembered to pull out a camera. When I'm hosting, I get a little overwhelmed with details, and pictures are low on my totem pole of needs. It was an awesome meal with a huge variety of options. Our own Golden Corral. :) Overall it was an enjoyable Thanksgiving. The next night the Fitzgeralds came over with Angie's parents to have Thanksgiving part 2: the leftovers. We felt like we celebrated Thanksgiving as fully as one can by the time the weekend was over!<br />

Halloween. That's the long and short of it. It was difficult still not being able to drive and pulling costumes together, but you do what you gotta do.<br />
This first picture, though, has nothing to do with Halloween. Jake dropped Tessa and me off at Salvation Army to look for, you guessed it, Halloween costume pieces, but we had to check the frames too. I had a couple pieces of art that needed framing, but I wasn't about to pay full price for big, not so common sized frames. Second hand was at least worth looking at. I, happily, did find what I was looking for -half price day!-, spent a bit of time refurbishing/spray painting/ etc. and finally got those pictures up on the wall. BUT THIS GEM BELOW. I had to take a picture of this particular picture because it was a picture that hung in our family room growing up. We had deer mural wall paper on one wall, a big stone hearth for our standing fireplace in the corner with the wooden louver door next to it, a deer sculpture on a shelf, and this guy on the wall. He is burned into my memories. We would put a red pom pom on his nose for Christmas as we transformed him into Rudolph. His image is as nostalgic as it gets. I didn't buy it since I'm not that sentimental, but a picture was needed.<br />

What a cool crew. They are still game for themes, and I'll happily take it.<br />
Most of the costumes were online finds (hooray for random little girl costume sales! And Amazon!), but I did have to make Jake's hat and...dum, dum, dummmmm.... Tessa's dress.<br />

You wouldn't think it would be difficult in this online day and age to find an affordable Wendy dress. It is. I ended up ordering one from China off Ebay that was to be custom made for a great price. Because of the medical stress, I justified that this year, I was leaving it to online retailers instead of myself. The dress took almost a month to get to us, a week before Halloween, and it was awful. So awful. As in, how in the world could a person actually believe it looks like the picture advertised? The bow and sash were decent, but that was the end. The boat neck was so large that it disappeared into poorly made sort-of sleeves. It was gaping up top and strangely fitting through the center. It went a little past her knees and flared significantly. There was no saving it. There wasn't enough material there to work with. I was able to get a partial return and vowed "Never Again" and went to work finding a suitable pattern. I had all the other costumes complete. It was Wendy or bust. And I did it! I was very proud of myself, even if one of the sleeves is sewn on completely inside out. (No one can tell.)<br />
She looked lovely.<br />

My blonde Tiger Lily. We couldn't talk Sadie into being Tiger Lily, even though Paige's blonde hair was meant for Tink, so we're glad Paige is a trooper.<br />
Paige also wore this costume for her preschool party and Trunk or Treat. It's now in our dress up box. I love when costumes get the love they deserve.<br />

The crew! With me in my stupid boot still non weight bearing. But, it could have been way worse. It was SO NICE to have something like this to look forward to when I had been feeling trapped at home. With Dianna and Alan's medical background, I didn't feel like such a reject while wheeling around the house and crawling up the stairs.<br />
I love these people. I love this tradition.<br />

A few more things: Jake and Alan took the oldest four on a hike through the woods at some point, and Cole had a breakdown about the burrs on his shoelaces --Poor kid thought they were alive. We celebrated Peter's and Sadie's birthday with a cake. We attended a local Primary Program for sacrament meeting. There was a big swing out front that even I had a good swing on. We had a great time cooking with each other, and really loved everything about this trip. It was so needed.</div>

Unsurprisingly, she was a total ham --which was awesome.<br />

Tessa was also part of the jury at the end of the (long) show that didn't have speaking parts. The night that I was able to go, she got a little preoccupied with a show/game backstage and didn't notice the entire cast had gone onstage without her. Oh, my Tessa. She had a good friend there to watch her as well, and Tessa was in tears at the end. Lesson learned, m'love. Regardless, she did a great job with her speaking/singing part, and it was fun to see what she'd been working so hard on.</div>

First day of school! (End of Aug.) This year was a little odd considering how much in lock down I was with my foot. I couldn't come get them after school, so practice with Dad on how to walk home from school happened in the days leading up when it was up to them to get home. They have done splendidly since and really take care of each other. I wanted to get them to that point, but the foot forced us into it a tad early. I was also very grateful that my dad was able to come and stay the first week of school to get us into a groove and so that I could survive without my helper Tessa!<br />

When my dad was here, he wanted to take us all out to dinner. We, of course, at least lunched at Rudy's, which Dad LOVES, but we also took him to a place we knew he'd like. Babe's Chicken. As ridiculous as I always felt rolling around on the knee scooter and attracting attention, it was really nice to get out and feel a little bit normal when sitting around dining with the family at a fun place.</div>

She was busting out of her skin to get there. She loves preschool and has grown up so quickly in the last little while. This summer she worked really hard (with the help of a thumb guard) to stop sucking her thumb so it wouldn't be a preschool issue, and she did it. Phew! She's so happy to have her best buddy Emmeline in her class. Go, Panthers!<br />

Good grief, he's a handsome boy! Cole was chosen through the dance studio (mad hip hop skills, yo) to go be in a commercial for Goliath Games. This is the same company Tessa has worked with for game pictures. We haven't been able to find or see the finished commercial, but he had fun regardless and got to have Grandma Lori take him and hang out with him since Mom was still laid up with her busted foot at home. Cole got paid in games later as well, and between Tessa and him, we've got a pretty great game stash.Marenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16693764526225337833noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-790309553372370375.post-59133409938232226952017-02-06T14:04:00.001-08:002017-02-06T14:04:59.611-08:00Topple: Featuring Tessa<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It's January now as I'm looking back on it, and it's been a long road. I'm grateful for what I've learned, but, good grief, sometimes learning is no fun.<br />
Remember that awesome tap dance class Jake and I were taking over the summer? Well, on my birthday, while excelling in that awesomeness, my right foot got caught on some folded cloth gaffer's tape on the flooring, and my foot stopped cold on its air travel forward. My foot folded with full weight on it. I went down. And I couldn't get up. I knew it was bad but also knew that it should have started swelling, but it didn't. We went to an urgent care center and it was decidedly broken.<br />
The next day we went in to see an orthopedic surgeon -Dr. Rodgers. The x-ray showed that I sustained a Lisfranc injury. Since, I've had no shortage of them telling me that it's named for the man who perfected the amputation before surgery was an available option. The tarsals and metatarsals break away from each other, and it takes no small amount of effort and hardware to put it back together again. In short, my foot will never be the same. The healing process is a long one. And this is now one of my "things." And that's okay. But it doesn't mean I haven't had pockets of grieving and frustration along the way! Ahhhh, trials and growth.<br />
So, I had to wait a few days before surgery. When I went in for surgery, it was the first time I'd stayed in the hospital where a baby didn't come home with me afterward. But I did come home with plenty of hardware in my foot and meds. We, over the entire critical healing/down and out period, had so much help from our ward family, that the gratitude and love I have for them reached a new level.<br />
I had to keep my foot above my heart as much as possible for two weeks straight. Between the loopy meds and visiting with people who came to help take care of me and my children, I worked on Personal Progress, read, watched shows, did crossword puzzles, colors, talked on the phone to concerned family members, etc., etc.<br />

The kids struggled a bit with Mom in such a strange predicament and different people coming in and out for an extended period of time. But they are such good kids that they handled as well as one could expect, and Tessa stepped up in a way beyond her years. I had my trusty knee scooter for a full three months. I couldn't bear weight on my foot for that long. Which means no driving. Aye, aye, aye. THAT was a toughie. I couldn't have made it without my friends and visiting teachers.<br />
So I had the boot. I also had crutches for times when I just needed to go a short distance, but the knee scooter saved me, as ridiculous as I felt using it. Jake ended up putting handlebar tassels and a bell on it. May as well. I was drawing attention anyway.<br />
Jake's mom was so good to come and spend a week with us during my two week spot on the couch, and then my dad came to stay for the first week of school so we could get adjusted to that change.<br />
Here is Jake amused by my methods of keeping the foot up while getting ready for the day in the cast phase:<br />

I took this picture while I was at physical therapy because of the message on the board. Physical therapy was a bright spot in a difficult situation. It was a reminder of improvement and that I wasn't alone in crappy accidents and working to move past them. </div>

Life moves on, so that became the goal --to keep moving forward with my limits. We did it. We even did a few fun things somewhere in there. Six months later it's still healing as I'm constantly wearing athletic shoes and rigid orthotics. I won't know what the foot can and can't do until a year from now and it's highly likely I will have the hardware taken out this year.

We are fortunate to be surrounded by a wonderful religious community that, by and large, is very respectful of each other. Vacation Bible school has been something that my older kids enjoy, and my younger kids look forward to. This year a couple of friend joined in the fun (and the carpool). I snagged a picture of Tessa, Brooklyn, and Cole, but Beckham had been whisked away to sports camp as soon as he was done with VBS.Marenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16693764526225337833noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-790309553372370375.post-23495923454246468022016-12-13T13:28:00.002-08:002017-02-06T14:12:24.700-08:00Happy 7th Birthday, Cole! -July 2016<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Grandma and Grandpa Rich took us swimming at a fun indoor pool the next day with Mason. We had a great time and lunched together before parting ways. Naps for the two littles with me, and the Hill Air Force Base Air Museum for Jake and the rest of the kids.<br />

My mother was in town because her father, my Grandpa Jack, was as well. We got together with my siblings and their families and a guy named Jay at a park for a picnic. It was a lovely summer evening. The kids get too excited to eat much and wanted to get to the spray ground to play for a while. This is when Gavin swooped in for the blanket buffet.</div>

We went back to Mandy's house to play with water balloons. At this point, Paige tripped and fell on the front porch stairs and scraped her face up. Just in time for family pictures a few days later. Poor kid.<br />
Gavin probably popped more water balloons than anyone. He was having a ball, and I didn't have the heart to stop him. Plus, it was funny.<br />

The next day we met at a place called Toad's to play. Sadly, Mandy was MIA, Dallen had to work, and Grandpa headed to a more grandpa-friendly environment, but the rest of us had a great time with each other playing laser tag, go carts, and amassing as many tickets as we could from the arcade for lame/awesome prizes.<br />

The next day Jon, Chelsy, Mandy, Jay, and the kids came to Dad and Sandy's for dinner and to hang out one more time, for which I was very grateful. I get one time a year to be with these yayhoots, so I soak it in the best I can and hope they will be accommodating. Because, come on, THESE GIRLS:<br />

Grandpa McBride was in the show Big River this summer at Hale Centre Theatre playing Mark Twain and the doctor at the end. Tessa and Cole were old enough to go and watch it with us and had a wonderful time doing so with Grace and Simone too.<br />

That was another memorable Utah trip in the books. We are always so grateful for the hospitality, fun, and time sacrificed to come and be with us.<br />
I was also able to meet up with Krista, Katie, and Adena for lunch, Jake had lunch with friends, we went and saw Grandma and Grandpa D. for a day and had lunch and a little shopping in Logan. We got our family pictures taken. We really try to fit as much into our schedule as possible to make the most out of our trip. It's exhausting, but well worth it.Marenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16693764526225337833noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-790309553372370375.post-52943076914646642382016-08-29T06:36:00.001-07:002016-08-29T11:36:22.227-07:00June 2016<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

We aren't perfect, and we don't see eye to eye on everything (who does?), but we work on seeing eye to eye. And we find so much happiness together and in working together. I love doing projects with Jake. We undertook a big one in February when we were looking for a decently priced entertainment center.<br />
We found this one on Craigslist but knew we wanted it in a darker wood. No problem! Except that daylight and time to do it with the kids busy or asleep isn't easy in this phase of life, and this baby had a LOT of surfaces to cover. One thing at a time, right?<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">And then</span>, this makes me so happy... I asked Jake about taking a tap class over the summer at Tessa's dance studio so I could count it toward teaching recertification, and he responded with, "Can I take it with you?" We asked my mom if she'd be willing to watch the kids once a week so we could go to tap class together, and ta da! It worked out! I'm so grateful. It has been a blast and a challenge. We have a wonderful tap teacher who knows when to push and when to help us feel successful so we don't feel like floppy foot toddlers. It's so fun and fills a part of my heart that forgot how much I love to take dance class. And to take it with my best friend is double the fun. Did I mention I was grateful? :)</div>

I was asked to take part in our ward's youth Zombie Run 5k. I asked my favorite zombie sidekick to join me. We had a great time smearing red craft paint on us and showed up come out of the trees on the 5k route to scare the young men and women into running just a little bit faster. </div>

April Fools! My April Fools joke was on the family this year as I went around and put googly eyes on a bunch of stuff all over the house for the family to find, including in the kids' school lunches. We all had some good laughs over it. The little girls loved finding object with "googy eyes".</div>

Cole received the R-time Award at school "For demonstrating good manners and being respectful." Woot! April is around the time where school starts to wear me out --well, making lunches and HOMEWORK time wear me out, but then I remember the awesome teachers and people they are surrounded by at school, and I'm good until June.</div>

April 2016I thought that this year's crazy storm came and went in late December when a tornado ripped through a nearby town and completely destroyed some homes and ripped roofs off of others. But we had a crazy April too. We had a storm one evening where it sounded like sheets of ice were falling onto our house. And that's basically what was happening. I've never heard anything like it. Jake and I ran upstairs screaming at each other (because we couldn't hear otherwise) to get the children. We scooped them out of bed and ran downstairs to get into our storm closet. Poor kids. But I wasn't going to chance it with what we'd seen and heard about from December's storms. They were so good. And it was scary outside. By the time it all passed, we were able to easily put everyone back to bed and witness the huge pile of hail that had poured off our roof onto our back porch. It was crazy. By the time it all melted, there was quite the pile of roof composite that had come with it. A floodlight had been shattered, our drain pipes were all dented, and one side of our fenced had been beaten up pretty badly. Jake's car was outside at the time, (and his face was not happy when I reminded that it was sitting at just the right angle behind the low hill next to us, or something. Regardless, I was thankful not to have more hail damage. As it is, we've got to get a portion of our roof replaced once the storm season is over.<br />
A very short time later, we were hit with another hail storm and very glad that we hadn't yet fixed our roof from the first one. These hail stones were much bigger. Oddly enough, they didn't do as much damage. Although the stones were huge (at least golf ball size), they had air pockets in them so the density didn't hit like it could have. The story was very different in other areas around us, however. We had friends with chunks of their roof on the ground or in their pool. In the nearby city of Wylie, they had baseball sized, solid ice hail stones. These stones were not only crashing through windows, they went straight through roofs. Our friends who moved there recently had twenty holes in their roof where hail slammed straight through. The community moved to see what they could do to help people get situated until things could get straightened out. The rain wasn't finished over the next couple of weeks, so some of these homes had tarps on the roof and windows boarded up to keep their homes from further damage. The cars outside at the time there were done for.<br />
These stones were from the second storm. We have a video of our children jumping on the trampoline with the hail.<br />

We took Gramma Lori to the Arboretum Easter weekend and enjoyed the beautiful flowers and picnicking on the lawn once again.</div>

We met up with the Fitzgeralds at our small neighborhood park for an egg hunt before church. It was windy. And devoid of many hiding places, but our backyard was still so soggy from the spring rains, that it would have been a gross mess to do it there.<br />
Here is the best we could do:<br />

Poor Sadie had fallen through the picnic table at the park onto the cement with the side of her face the Friday before. It was awful. I'm so grateful kids heal quickly because she looked like she'd been through the ringer.<br />

Gavin was angry in the prior pictures, and Sadie is angry in this one.<br />
