Life can get
cRaZy sometimes!
Happy Times and Sad Times
I haven't blogged in almost two months but
wow a lot has happened in that short time.
May 13th
After many many bumps in the road, we finally moved into our new home in Layton.
However, we rented our condo out and had to be out by May 1.
So, we stayed with some good friends for a few weeks.
They have been lifesavers more than once!
June 2nd
My AMAZING Grandparents celebrated their 73rd Wedding Anniversary!
They are the most
Incredible Loving Giving people I have ever met!
They have been Wonderful examples to me my entire life!!!
June 9th
I got a call from my sister telling me that my ex-husband passed away
due to injuries he suffered from a crash racing motocross.
I never thought I would receive that news and I definitely never thought it would
hit me as hard as it did.
Now don't get me wrong, I LOVE MY LIFE NOW!!
I LOVE my husband and son more than
anything!! I wouldn't trade it for the
World!!
But, at one point:
I loved David
He was my entire life
I watched him race almost every weekend
I watched him crash and get right back on his bike and finish the moto
I loved his family and our friends
For days after I heard the news, I couldn't stop thinking about his family and his poor wife and kids!
I kept putting myself in Lindsay's shoes and I still couldn't imagine what she went (and is still) going through.
My heart hurt!
My heart was broken for them.
All I could do was pray every day that they would be able to find
Peace & Comfort
during such a difficult time!
June 10th
My sister called me at 3:30am to inform me that she was having contractions every 2 minutes
and they were on their way to Evanston.
I was so excited that I happened to have Monday off!
I found a sitter for Kyson then headed to Evanston around 9:30.
She delivered Evelyn Jean at about 12:25pm.
6lbs 3oz
I felt like I was watching my own delivery.
Besides the fact that I was induced and was super swollen,
our deliveries were almost identical.
She progressed rather quickly and 4-5 pushes later, she got to hold her precious baby girl!
I was SO happy that I was able to be a part of such a
special event!
Congrats Hamms
Then
Eric has lost all four of his grandparents within the last 13 months
with the last one being a few weeks ago.
We decided since his funeral was in San Diego, we would make it a mini vacation.
I was a little upset that him and David's funerals were on the same day but I knew that being there for Eric was more important.
Because his Grandpa was in the Marines, they did a 21 gun salute.
Such a great service!
We had a GREAT time in San Diego and I can't wait to go back someday!
San Diego Temple - Incredible
Kyson wasn't so sure about the ocean
but he LOVED the sand!
Lastly
About a month ago my mom's husband was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma.
It's quit progressed and his back is broke in four spots.
He started chemo a couple weeks ago which makes him quit sick.
At this point, we don't know what the road ahead looks like but it has definitely changed their lives.
I not only pray for Tommy but I pray my mom will have the strength to make it through this!!
So...I can only hope that things will start to slow down and we can enjoy our summer!!
