ITS FOOTBALL SEASON........ GOOOO VIIIIKINGS!!!

I always love football season, especially now that I have a little player who loves it too. He played last year, but just did not seem to get into it like he has this year. He is one of the older ones now, so that makes a huge difference. He is getting so good, and even scored a touch down last game! We were so proud of him. His little buddy Jaiden Tuckett plays with him, along with almost every other sport that we do. They have become the best little buddies, and even seem to think that they dominate the team. SHHH, we wont tell them, we will just let them continue to think that. It is such a huge commitment to play tackle football at such a young age. With the 3 day a week practices for 2 hours, and then a game every saturday, I'm proud that he is still loving it and not to burned out yet. We love ya Noni~

Elizabeth Smart



I thought this was kinda cool, so I thought I better post it. Andy's Dad just got put into the bishopric in a BYU ward, and once a month a member of the bishopric has family home evening at their house for some of the students. Well it was their turn, and they had them over, and Andy's mom thought this one girl looked really familiar but did not put it together. They all got up to introduce themselves, and the girl stands up and says, " Hi, I'm Elizabeth Smart, and I'm a music major!!" Andy's mom said she about died. She knew that she looked like her, but they had no idea that she was even in the ward. They said it was just crazy to see her now 6 years down the road, and it so happened that that was Monday night, and two days later she ended up being on the Oprah show. What a sad situation, but how good she seems to be doing now!

My Poor Hubby....Again



Andy's shoulder has been bothering him a little lately, so he decided to have it looked at. He broke his collar bone 2 years ago for the third time, out at the Sand dunes( Death Traps),but the bone never healed right. This of course came after he had already broke it once at the Sand dunes, had surgery on it because it was sticking out of his neck, they put a plate with 8 screws in it back then. Then it healed, but the plate and screws were sticking out of his skin and bothering him, so he decided to go back in and have the plate and screws taken out. Well, since he went back out a few months later and rebroke it, he did not let it heal right. So it was a nasty broken bone that he could wiggle around, and I mean totally move. It was so nasty. So he thought he would just have it looked at, saying that he is only 31 and he has a long life of playing ball with the boys with a bad arm. So he went to a specialist and they said, "lets fix it next week"! So he went in last Monday and had it operated on. They had to rebrake the bone, then put a piece of cadaver bone in the center and put a protein wrap around it so it will grow back together. Then again they had to put another plate with 8 screws back on it to hold it back in place! Let's just say this surgery kicked his butt. He has been in bed, and cannot move or has not done anything all week! We are quite the couple right now,me being almost 8 months pregnant trying to take care of him, and him being pretty laid up. We are both hoping that it will be totally worth all the pain he went through, to have a good arm again. Let's just say we are getting real good at putting those slings on! We'll keep our fingers crossed, Love ya babe!!

FINALLY

I know it was about time, but I finally got a camera that I have been needing for so long. Still trying to figure out how to use the thing, but at least now I can put some new posts on, so get ready.......

COUSINS...DONT' WE LOVE THEM

YOU CAN'T TELL SHE IS A DICKINSON, CAN YOU?


It was so fun to get to have my neices over to babysit the other night. My sis lives so far away, and we never get to see them, so when we do, it is so much fun for the kids. She came into town for a wedding and needed help with the kids, so of course I offered. It was so much fun to be with them, but by the end of the night, being on east coast time, they were ready to get back to their mommy!! Love you Kate and Hannah
