Market Day and Music Program






Today the fourth graders had market day.  They learn how to keep track of money in a checking account and if they have any left, after having to pay for not doing what htye are asked, etc., then they can sell and buy stuff.  

Then they put on a music program about the pioneers and the state of Utah.

If you would like to see the field trip, market day, and music program they are in an album on my facebook account.

4th grade field trip to Antelope Island





Dale went on the field trip with Rachel.  We didn't think my knee could handle it.  They had fun.

Science Fair Project



Wow! Three posts in one day.  I must be crazy or something.  Here are pictures of Heather's Science Fair Project - "How Does Temperature Affect CO2 in Soda Pop".

Memorial Day






We have had an uneverntful weekend.  I pretty much have stayed home.  Went to the movie on Saturday and that just wore me out.  But "Night at the Museum 2" was great.

Here are some pictures of our day today.

Surgery #6




Here is what I get to wear on my leg for the next few weeks.  It is called a TED hose.  It helps to keep the swelling down in my knee.  Then here is a picture of the crutches I am on.  They are nicer than regular crutches.  They have springs on them, shock absorbers, and more comfortable under the arms.  

The doctor found out that the cadaver plug he put in my knee at Christmas 2007 worked. We were afraid that it hadn't.  It was bone and cartlige.  He found a lot of scar tissue and that the cartlige had over grown.  So he cut off the scar tissue and smoothed out the cartlige.  

We are so happy that the plugged worked.  I should be up and around in a week.  This surgery was 6 days ago.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Memorial Day.
