After seeing Santa so many times, Jesse needed a "santa beard" all his own so my mom made him one out of yarn. He thinks it's pretty cool.

Hanging out with the Warners

On Sunday, November 1st, Ben and Shea blessed their new baby - Emery Dawn Wade. She's such a good baby and it was a lot of fun to hang out with the Warner family for the day!

Boston loves his little sister but he loves to have his picture taken even more
Kristen, Ashley, and Josh

Jamie, Jack, Grandma King, Shea, Emery, and me (in my defense, I was feeding the baby when everyone else was eating. That's why I'm the only one in the room with food)

Halloween 2009

Baby Jade as a Ladybug. We didn't actually see her on Halloween, but she is dang cute in her costume!

Chandler's "incident"

So a couple of weeks ago, my cousin Chandler was getting ready to ride his horse up Logan canyon when he was bucked off. The horse was freaking out and Chandler landed on his face. He got up and the horse calmed down. He felt fine, but his co-worker told him to get in the truck. They loaded the horses and went to the Emergency Room. In the ER, they checked out all his wounds and discovered that he had broken his neck. It was a crack in the bones that keep the vertebrae separated and if left untreated, he could develop severe nerve damage. His surgeon scheduled his surgery for the following Sunday (3 days later). Here are the pictures from the trip to the ER (WARNING: there are some pretty graphic pictures below):

Surgery went really well and they were able to place a plate and some screws in between the vertebrae to stabilize them. He has to wear a neck brace for 3 months, won't be able to work for a while, and doesn't have a lot of energy. He is doing remarkably well for what he's been through. He shouldn't have any long-term effects other than the scars. He is a VERY lucky guy!

His face healed pretty well and the cut on his head is working on getting better

Such a happy patient - he wanted to escape the hospital the day of surgery - no such luck

These are the screws in his neck

And this is the view from behind

Jesse turned 5 on October and Halle turns 4 on October 13th so we had a joint family party for them on the 1st. They got lots of presents and were really excited about everything they got. I love these two so much and am so glad they had a good birthday!
