Cereal disaster

Mason is in to everything now!!

I couldn't resist not taking this picture. Mason
decided to dump out the box of Froot Loops. I guess he
was hungry.

Jared's Ear Scare

I wanted to share the good time Jared had first before
we get to the not so good. This is Jared on Halloween night.
He won 2nd in the potato sack race.

So here is the bad.
I came home from work on a Wed night around dinner time. Troy tells me
that Jared had stuck something in his ear. It was a little plastic ball. We tried looking
in his ear but every time we got even a little close Jared would flip out. So we decided
to take him to the urgent care. Ears are so sensitive I didn't want to mess with it. Of course
when I got there we had a lot of laughs. Everyone had there attention on our room. Anyways they started one at time trying to use different instruments to get it out. After 2 hours of Jared screaming and his ear swelling the doctor decided that I needed to go somewhere else. So we found a pediactric ER connected to John C. Lincoln Hospital. After going through all the explanations AGAIN and telling them what was not going to work we felt that putting him under would be the only way to remove the ball. There are no words to describe what he went through to get in his IV . Even Mason was crying because he was so scared from Jared. They used three different meds in the injection. One was a pain reliever and the other two were to put him to sleep and an amnesia to help him forget all the trauma he had already been through. Thankfully everything went really well and the doctor was able to pop it out. It was in there pretty good. She had to dig for it. What an experience and I don't recommend it to anyone. I think Jared would agree with me. He said "I am never doing anything like that again". We would greatly appreciate that.

Trunk or Treat

Halloween Night!!

Our trunk or treat was held at a family's house
in our ward that has 10 acres. Mason and Tatum
found a huge dirt hill to play on. Mason was Sparky
the ASU sun devil. Tatum was a unicorn, Maegan &
Kaden were witches and Jared was darth vader.


The kids had so much fun playing games. Eating
hot dogs and chips. Yes of course they ate plenty
of candy.


They also had a hay ride to go on. That was the
big hit.

Mason loved it. He cried every time we took him
off the hay. We had a great time.

walk, which she did win some cupcakes.
