Memorial Day Barbecue

We had our annual memorial day barbecue today with friends from church, and it turned out really nice.  We had about fifty people there at one point.  The weather was perfect.  Not too hot and not too cold.  The bishop brought some water guns, and the kids(and adults) had a great time with them.  I can't wait until next year!

Vance finally got a haircut!

Vance REALLY needed a haircut, but the only person he wanted to do it was Dad.  But the last two times Jordan got a hold of him, he just shaved it all off(along with all the cute curls that didn't grow back!), so I didn't want Jordan anywhere near Vance's hair.  I finally decided just to get it over with and take him somewhere to get it done, fearing for a major tantrum.  But he did great!  He was such a good boy and I'm so proud of him.  And I think he looks completely adorable with him new haircut!

Update on Jordan's finger

This is what Jordan's finger looks like two weeks after his accident at work.  (If you have not had the misfortune of seeing what the finger looked the day after the accident, scroll down.  Caution: it's gross.)  I can't believe how fast it's healing.  And he said it really doesn't hurt anymore, which is great.  

9th ward blog

I found a great website called the 9th ward.  Here is a link.  It features hilarious LDS humor.  Here a  few examples:

Poor Jordan!

PLEASE NOTE: I did not post this picture!    Jordan did.  And he's insistent that I don't remove it.  I hope it doesn't gross anyone out.  My sincere apologies!

Jordan sustained  this nasty little injury at work yesterday.  He had the end of his finger crushed.  (Don't ask me what it was that crushed it.  He told me once, but I don't speak elevator.)  He lost all of his fingernail(Which he kept as a souvenir.  Gross!) and it chipped a bit off of the bone.  The doctor in the ER said it will be fine, and should be "almost" back to normal in six to nine months.  He was in a lot of pain yesterday, but thankfully he said it didn't really bother him today.  I sure hope it stays that way!  His job makes me nervous!

Another one bites the dust

Mason lost another tooth tonight.  That brings his total of lost teeth to four.  And another two are on their way out.  What a cute, toothless boy.

Laundry Mystery: Part Two

Some of you may remember a post I made about five months ago, when I found a mysterious pair of women's undergarments in my boys laundry.  Well, it appears that our laundry gremlin has struck again.  This time I found this lovely set of teeth.  None of us in the house are claiming these less then perfect  chompers, and so we have NO idea where they came from, and how they got into our laundry!   Is anyone missing a part of their Halloween costume?
