Family Pictures



We had our family pictures taken this last weekend and we are thrilled with the results. We had a fun time running around Mission North Park. Dallin especially enjoyed posing and coming up with fun places to take pictures! Check out our flickr page to see all the pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kanzler/sets/72157602776673688/



This might be the Christmas picture!



Tickle time!

The Spook Train






A few weeks ago we visited Old Sac and enjoyed the harvest festivities. We even rode the "Spook Train." It was fun to see the boys get so excited because we were riding on a train! Carson kept saying "whoa" and Dallin kept pointing out all the skeletons and other spooky decorations that hung from the ceiling of the train.





On a side note:


I am feeling much better, but still feel pretty drained! I need to exercise (anyone want to be my exercise buddy) and am just waiting for the lingering cough to go away before I try anything! I do have surgery scheduled for the end of January to have my tonsils removed. I am a little nervous (seeing that I have been advised by the doctors that I will need someone to care for the boys for at least 2 weeks). Supposedly the recovery is very painful as an adult and since there is a risk of bleeding I can't lift anything for at least 2 weeks. At this point I will do whatever I have to so that I don't keep getting sick - even if that means surgery!


Well I am getting excited for Trunk or Treat tomorrow and the youth dance. I will post our family halloween pictures soon!

I'm Sick - Again

So - I have strep throat for the 5th time this year! My doctor is referring me to an ENT (ear nose throat) specialist where we will discuss removing these annoying tonsils. A tonsilectomy is not something I am looking forward to, but if it will help me stop getting sick I can endure the 10-20 days of recovery. Aparently the procedure is more painful as an adult and the recovery is twice as long. After having 2 c-sections, a DNC, wisdom teeth pulled, etc... I am sure I can handle the recovery. I just hope my family will be able to endure me being out of commission for a few weeks.

I also have to have the boys tested to see if they are strep throat carriers (meaning they have strep but no symptoms). My doctor thinks that maybe someone in the house is a carrier and keeps infecting me. So far we know it's not Ryan, I have to now go see if the boys have it.

So much fun (she whisper's sarcastically). Oh well - I am just glad Ryan is such a great husband and dad because he is totally picking up the slack. What a great guy!

Dallin's First School Picture



Isn't he cute! I love his picture and just can't believe how big he is!!!! Click on the pictures to make them bigger. The pictures are a little fuzzy due to my scanner being fuzzy, I need to clean the glass! :-)

A great weekend





Dallin is the Shining Star this weekend and this week at school. He got to bring home the class mascot (Ruff the dog and Ruff's baby). Ryan took pictures of Dallin with Ruff and let's just say they had a great time. Dallin enjoyed having Ruff and is excited to share with his friends (in his class) the things he likes to do!

On a side note:

I enjoyed my girls only weekend up at a friend's place in the mountains (Soda Springs). It was a scrapbooking weekend but I wasn't feeling particularly in the mood to scrapbook so I was so excited to bring some books and read!!!! I finished 2 huge books and had a nice time with my girlfriends. I wish my camera was working so I could have (or had someone) take pictures of us having fun, me trying to eat snowflakes falling from the sky, and me sleeping (I got to sleep through a night without being woken up by a little boy)!

So while I was gone, Ryan was being the best daddy ever! He amazes me and I love him so very much! He had mowed the lawns, installed a cable that allows us to use our computer through our tv, installed a new thermostat, cleaned the bathrooms, had dinner ready on Sunday night when I returned, to name but a few! I love him so very much and am grateful that he does so much to help. We have a great partnership, friendship and love!

Okay enough mushy stuff! I have to get started on the laundry....
