What a Week!


Well this past week has been fun. We will start with Carson...He went to his friends birthday party this past friday and did a flip on the trampoline. He went face first into a railroad tie. We ended up at the emergency room and he got 8 stitches. (10 if you ask Carson)
To look at him makes you just feel so bad. He missed school yesterday and went back today. He is still swollen but it is looking better. He gets his stitches out tomorrow.
Reagan did what he loves most this past week. He went with Lawrence to gather cows. He loves to spend any possible time that he can with Lawrence doing just about anything that Lawrence does. Reagan and Lawrence like to do things that a mom would not approve of and then just tell me enough to make me wonder what they have been up to!
Anthony.......Another fishing picture. Go Figure! He went on a fishing trip for 2 days with one of his young men leaders and some friends. He of course caught his share and then brought home all of the ones that no one else wanted to eat. He cooked them up 2 different nights and from what I have heard they are very good. (I am not that brave) He is a good little cook. I think if he could just eat sleep and live on the shore of a lake with a pole in the water he would be happy.

Lawrence Is So Proud!

I have to share this story. Last night Carson had a friends birthday party and Lawrence took care of everything and got him to the party. When I got home I asked Lawrence how it went. He started telling me about how proud of Carson he was. When they were getting the present together for his friend, Carson said he wanted to make a card all by himself so Lawrence let him do it. When Carson got done Lawrence read the card. He could not believe how nice it was. When I got home that is the first thing Lawrence told me about and he said some of the things that were on it and how proud he was of Carson for being so sweet. The only thing was that he wished he would have made a copy of it to show me. We sat and talked about how great our kid is and it was a shame I did not get to see the card. While we were talking I noticed a pile of papers on the table. In the pile was a birthday card Carson got from Grandma and Grandpa in July. I opened it and started reading it. I asked Lawrence if this is what Carson's super sweet card to his friend said. He looked at it and we both started laughing. When we finally were able to talk again after laughing so much the first thing I said was "you should know better than that his last name is Lavery!" When Carson came in I said "I heard you made a nice card for your friend." He then replied "yeah I copied it out of my card because I could never spell all of that right by myself!"
We are still laughing about this!
Lesson to us...1st-never think a Lavery can come up with all of that nice stuff by himself.
2nd even if he did he would not share it with anyone.
3rd if the spelling is correct he cheated!
