events that have happened the past few weeks
Sorry its taking me a while to post again. First of all I went down to Mesa to see a Rheumatologist. The doctor was really nice and didn't want to duplicate things that were done previously since I was cash pay. She had me do some more blood work and now I found out that I do have Rheumatiod Arthritis. Also we spent 24th of July celebration with Todd's family, I was alot of fun to be together. On July 25th Todd's youngest sister got married to her sweetheart in the Snowflake Temple. That was an awesome experience more so for his parents to have all 4 of their kids with their spouses in the temple. Monday the 28th was my birthday, it was an ok birthday I've had better ones. I found out on my birthday that my job fell through so now I'm trying to stretch the pennies even more since I have some more doctors bills to pay. The night of my birthday my inlaws came up and took us out to dinner to Licanos and then we went to my moms house for cake and ice cream Then on Tuesday I opened the cuppard door and saw ants crawling in on the walls I was kindof busy that day so I ignored them. Yesterday I started clearing out the cuppard and I grabbed a box and there were a million of them in the box so I threw the box where I got it from and ants started coming out by the hundreds it seemed (exaggerating of course) so I grabbed my bathroom cleaner and started spraying cause thats all I had and it killed them on contact I was amazed but then I had a huge mess to clean up and it wasn't very fun. So thats what my last few weeks have been. Sorry no pictures still working on getting some good ones to post

more news
Hi Everyone
Sorry its been awhile, I've been wanting to post some pictures of our trip and thats why I haven't posted anything yet but I decided I needed to give some updates and then Todd can put some pictures on later. We left on our trip to Utah May 23rd and got up there around 6 or 7 their time. We went straight to the town house that we rented. There was 27 of us and the town house was a 4 bedroom 3.5 bath and it was 5 levels a bedroom on 4 of the levels and the kitchen, laundry rm and the 1/2 bath on the other level. The house also had a pool table and a spa and thanks to my fun sister and her husband we had the wii to play also. That night we just got ourselves situated and hung out at the house and made dinner there.
Saturday
Those of us that wanted to got up and went to the Salt Lake Temple to do a session. I didn't wear the boot that I was wearing and I wasn't thinking of having to park blocks away from the temple, I started walking and the more I walked the more my foot hurt and the more it swelled but I kept walking cause there was nothing else I could do. Anyways the session was a live session and that is one experience I will never forget it was so awesome and the temple was really pretty inside. After the session we let Todd go over to the conference center and walk around since he hadn't seen it yet, then we went and ate lunch. When we got back from that, for my nephews birthday we went goofy golfing and then out to dinner.
Sunday
We went to church and then came home and relaxed we had a good dinner and Kevin opened his birthday presents. My sister gave massages all afternoon too.
Monday
We had tickets to go to the Lagoon, when we woke up it was raining, on our way over to the lagoon it seemed that the closer we got to the lagoon the harder it was raining but we went anyways. After all of us entered the park my parents decided to buy some rain ponchos for us so that helped alot . The rides were alot of fun except the mouse ride that jerked us around and my body hurt the rest of the day from it There was one ride that todd and I rode alot and that was the ski lift ride that went from one side of the park to the other. I was thankful for that so I didn't have to walk back and forth as much and that saved my foot from hurting to bad. We had alot of fun there and didn't want to leave. After that we went out to eat at sizzler and then we went back to the where we were staying.
Tuesday
we got up and left to come home. On the way home we stopped in provo and got some yummy Krispy Kremes and then we stopped in beaver to get some squeaky cheese.
Now as for me and my foot its still about the same. I've been wearing a ankle brace everyday and that helps alot. I can't stand to go barefooted cause my feet hurt some bad but when I have my shoes and that brace on I feel like I can walk mostly normal and that is when my knee doesn't hurt. I'm kind of stubborn and I only take meds when I can't stand the pain anymore so I deal with most of the pain. I have an appointment to see a Rhuematologist July 14th so I will see what they say. Other than that Todd and I are plugging along day by day the best we can. The most important thing is we are happy to be with each other

Update
3 weeks has passed and I finally was able to get my cast off, Yah anyways but I still have to use the crutches for 3 more weeks and gradually put pressure on my foot since it is really weak. I was hoping that I could loose the crutches and actually be able to carry things and get stuff done around the house wrong thats not the case, its definately going to take a while to heal I'm a afraid. Other than my foot Todd and I are doing great. We are leaving May 23 with my family to go to Utah for a few days and hang out, we will be going to the Lagoon and hopefully I can get some enjoyment out of it since i have to lug around these crutches. One of the days we will probably hang around temple square and do some other things. Sorry theres not much pics to look at we are working at getting some others posted sometime
