After a run in with a Q-tip a month ago we were worried that Zak burst his ear drum. We took him in to see his E.N.T. right after it happened but there was too much blood for the Dr. to see in. He's been on ear drops for the past month and today he got his exam and his ear his fine. YAY!!!!
If only going to see the Dr. was this much fun all the time!!

Making Valentine Cookie's


Conner's a Pro!

Zak looks a little tipsy from eating too much sugary frosting!

I went Duck Hunting for the first time with Jace and so of course instead of hunting we got stuck in the snow. It took us about 4 hrs to get out.

This is definitely one of those memories that will stay with you forever. It was so beautiful and peaceful out this night.

Our kids can't wait until Jace gets home because they get to shovel snow on the four wheeler. As soon as they hear their Dad's truck they instantly grab their snow gear and get ready. It's so cute!

AHH The Dentist!!

So today I had a lovely experience at the Dentist. Let me start out by saying that I absolutely love my Dentist. He is my in-laws Bishop and is a wonderful man so nothing against you Dr. Hoover! Anyway, I have a root canal that has been giving me issues for about 6 months now. Since we own our own Company it's not worth it fo us to pay for expensive Dental Insurance. Dr. Hoover has tried everything to avoid having to do a root canal on my tooth but since I've been living on Loratabs for the past two weeks we've decided it's time. So usually Dr. Hoover gives me the Lidocain shot that numbs your mouth but today he was busy so his hygienest did it. (No, Nicole and Steven it wasn't Kristen but I wish it was.) She goes to give me the shot in my cheek and I feel the sharpest pain clear to my ear. I seriously had tears rolling down my face. Dr. Hoover comes in after about 5 minutes to work on my mouth and I can't open up wider than about an 1/2 inch. My jaw was locked and I couldn't get it open! He had to sit there and rub my jaw because the Hygienest put the shot directly into my muscle causing it to lock on me. It was so freaky! I kept asking him "Are you sure it will go away?" Finally he forced one of those bite things on the other side of my mouth and my jaw litterally popped into place. My jaw is sore now but I can open it again! YAY!! I'm so glad I'm done for a while.
