Dawna and I are in Wyoming at Wes and Wendys' home. We got here last night to help when Wendy has her baby. Well the baby decided to come a day early before Wendys scheduled C section. She went into labor at 4 o'clock this morning and went to the hospital at 6:45. Cutler was born at 8:51 by an early C section. I would post some pictures but that is Wendys privilege. He is a cute little fellow with Wes's long fingers and toes. Wendy and baby are fine.

Just a note to let you all know about Grandma. She went in for angioplasty to check out Her stints which I hear is what Her doctor likes to do when someone has a heart attack. Her stint was that was placed in Sept was okay but she had some blockage in a different place so they placed another stint. She has to stay overnight but should be home Thursday. The doctor told her that she needs to work now on building up strength.

David was honored last night at halftime of the basketball game with the other jazz band senior members. All the senior band members and their parents were introduced.

I have some pictures that were taken at Christmas and here it is a month later. Maybe next post.

I didn't realise that it had been so long since I last updated. I'll give a short note and update in depth later. For those of you that haven't heard, Grandma Susie Durfee had a heart attack on Jan 3. She has been in the hospital tell today. She is sure thankful to be home. Susie Sheppard has been so great to help out since JoAnn had to leave. Susie picked up Grandma today at about 1:30 and brought Grandma home. Margie is spending the night and Marie is flying up tomorrow to stay for a week. Linda is coming up on the 30th. We sure have appreciated all who came to see Her in the Hospital and who have helped to get Grandpa back and forth.

I haven't blogged for a week or two. We had a great Thanksgiving at Chris and Susie's. We really appreciate their hospitality. Dawna got low censuses and didn't have to work and Lesley and Cameron came over too. After a great meal, We went over to the theater and watched Hancock. I was sitting beside Grandpa Durfee and don't think He was real impressed with the movie. He kept saying that Hancock made superman look like a wimp.

The day after I got up early and went to Walmart to see if I could get a new TV since the one we were using was Cameron's and He sort of wanted it back. This was the first time for black Friday shopping and hopefully will be the last. People get a little crazy, make that a lot of crazy. I couldn't find the TV I really wanted and they were going so fast that I figured if I didn't grab the one I was near that there wouldn't be any at all. So I ended up with a 50" plasma. I just grabbed it and drug it through the store to the check out stand. David thinks it is pretty neat but I was really looking for a 40" lcd like Camerons. The price was the same though. It's big enough that sometimes you almost get motion sickness with some programs. It's great for football though.

Here are some more pictures of the reception and family

Well, yesterday was the big day for Cameron. Everything went well. The wedding was very nice. There was approx. 40 to 45 at the wedding. The luncheon was good, We had a good time visiting and someone even brought a tv and set up in a different room for the die hard BSU fans. Lesley and Cameron even got to watch a little. The Reception was really nice, I wonder by that time if Cameron's face was tired. He had a smile on all day long. I really don't know if he heard anything at all. We all had a good time. Dawna and I took Shalon home and had our first sleepover by a grandchild. Wendy and Wes stayed at the anniversary inn for the evening for a night out. I"ll post some more pictures later when I have some more time.

I thought today that it would be a slow Saturday, but it has been pretty busy. I went to Ontario this morning to pick up smoke chips for smoking the meat for the luncheon at Cameron and Lesley's wedding. Also picked up the barbecue sauce. David and I are being lazy, we normally make it. David tends to make it really hot though. I blew out Mom and Dad's sprinklers, then blew ours out. I worked on the hot tub, Then I tried to get the old lawn tractor that pulls the lawn sweeper started. I finally had to cheat and go buy a can of starting fluid to help get it started. While I was sweeping the lawn I had a parts call so I went back to Ontario to pull some parts. I also smoked a pork tenderloin and was glad I did because we got a call about 3:30 that the missionaries were coming for dinner. We had forgotten. We did the old standby of baked potatoes and the tenderloin that I smoked. I got to watch a little of the BSU game but they were beating the utah aggies pretty bad. I was going to settle down and watch the night game then remembered the Boyer's wedding reception. Dawna wasn't feeling to great, Her contact somehow scratched Her eye and It was all red. She wouldn't come out of the bedroom when the missionaries were here and I went down to the reception by myself. Hopefully it will heal fast. So much for nice easy weekends with nothing to do.

Been a busy couple of weeks. Last Saturday was David's birthday. We thought the card the Lesley and Cameron gave him explained a lot of things, although it must of been Dawna who dropped him, I don't drop anything but food and tools. David got a couple of BSU sweatshirts from Lesley and Cameron, rock band 2, and a tie from Dawna and I, and cards with money from the Grandparents. We capped off the night watching the BSU game with San Jose State.

Monday I stayed home from work to go to Mike Barlows funeral service when about 8:00 ambulance after ambulance went through Nyssa. I knew it had to be a mvc because of amount of ambulances. When Dawna and I got to the funeral we found out that it was Harlen and Kenda Lee Garner family. Tragically their oldest son died in the crash. Our prayers have been for them and Mike Barlow families all week.

David had his senior project this week. He put on a concert with different talents. It was really pretty good. I wished I would of took the camera. David played two trumpet solos and some of his friends did some musical numbers and rap numbers. Then the jazz band played. They sounded really good. David should of advertised a little more, unfortunately there was only about 30 to 40 people there. David didn't mind too much. He was much to worried to care. He is sure glad it is done. Friday started our football week end with all the college games. We didn't get to much done around the house and yard as it rained most of the day on Saturday. Go Broncos
