Pins and Needles

We went to the hand specialist this morning. Kadin's ring finger has shifted since we saw the Dr last week. The specialist scheduled surgery for in the morning. He will insert pins into Kadin's finger after he sets it again. The wires from the pins will poke out of his skin so they can be removed in about 3 weeks. Doesn't sound fun. Kadin is nervous, but will do great. The pinky finger is fine unless it shifts during surgery. If it does, the Dr will insert pins into it as well. That's our news for today...hope all is well with each of you.

A New Meaning for Spring BREAK

Kadin was boasting the other day that he hadn't broken any bones. JINX!!! We spent 2 1/2 hours in the instacare yesterday evening. Check out his ring finger, it's a little off.


After closer inspection, the Dr. found that the base of his pinky was broken too.

Kadin was at his friend's house and they were riding scooters. The handlebars on the scooter Kadin was riding came off and he took a dive. His ring finger and pinky on his right hand have displaced fractures meaning they were broken and shifted. The doctor numbed his fingers and had to pull and move the bones back into alignment. He had several x-rays to make sure the bones were in line. Now his hand and arm are wrapped in a splint so he can't move his fingers and we have to go see a hand specialist next week to make sure all is well. The doctor is concerned because the breaks are near his growth plates. He just wants to make sure all is where it should be. All this happened about a half hour after Scott had left for a campout with the young men at Zion's so he doesn't even know about it yet.

Back to where it should be!

Happy Easter!

It's spring in our area. We've had days like this for the last week or so.


We woke up to about 5 inches of snow this morning. It's almost all melted away now. What a way to celebrate Easter. Conference has been great. All the sessions have been so good. We wish all of you a very Happy Easter and hope all is well with you.

Kindergarten Fun

Today was Wacky Wednesday for Mason in Kindergarten. He got to wear wacky clothes. He wore his pajama tops inside out over a shirt and rolled up a pants leg. He thought he was pretty wacky.


A couple of weeks ago was 101 days of school. The kids got to wear polka dots. I had fun drawing dots on Mason. He looked pretty good!
