January Fun

January was a crazy and busy month. It all started with Joseph being out of town when I discovered lice in Kyler’s hair. Immediately we have loads and loads of laundry. I shampooed Kyler’s hair and we stayed up until 1 in the morning combing through it. 3 days later I am still finding lice in her hair. Each day I would spend 2-3 hours 2 times a day picking through it. Finally I found a product that worked, but it wasn’t soon enough as we discovered lice in the boys and Katya. We luckily found it early enough that one treatment was enough for them. 1 or 2 weeks later we found lice in my hair and more in Kyler. Then the wash started all over again. I used enough laundry soap in 2 weeks that usually lasts me 2 months. We finally got all the laundry taken care of when we all started getting sick with fevers. With lice and being sick I had someone home from school for 2 ½ weeks. Not fun.

In the middle of lice and sickness Grandma, Grandpa, Heather and Addison came to attend my Aunt Jean’s funeral. We had a good time while they were here and I think most everyone was well. While they were here Katya learned to ride a bike.

The boys had a good time making their Pinewood Derby Cars. Daniel is very excited to be a Cub Scout. For his birthday he and Brigham went with Joseph to the Boise State-Utah State basketball game. I was supposed to go, but had to stay home with Kyler because of the lice. Instead of a party he chose to do a fun family outing. Last week we went bowling. It was fun except Gammon would throw a fit when it wasn’t his turn.



Daniel got baptized on February 5th. Daniel was very happy to be baptized and even bore his testimony in church the next day.



While my parents were here for the baptism we went to the LDS temple and sealed my great-grandparents and also sealed my grandpa to them. It was fabulous and spiritual experience. If you'd like to know more about families being forever after death visit. www.lds.org

As far as other activites the kids have been in: both boys are in cub scouts as you know. Brigham is in basketball and Katya has started gymnastics.
