Happy birthday Dylan!

Third Halloween
Jordan, Second Halloween, Dylan
First Halloween




Dylan Charles was born at 8:00 pm on October 8, 1991. He has always loved his food. He loves Tennis, and Basketball, (especially the Magic). He is a very kind, and hardworking person. He is a great brother. He is good at many things.

p.s. This is SOOOO late!

What are the odds of that?

Last weekend/Monday (Sept. 14) I caught a cold, and so I figured I was probably done getting sick for a while. I was WAY off. I caught a different cold this Monday! Seriously??? The doctor said there are literally thousands of viruses, and you could catch a different one every week. So now I am hoping I don't get sick for a while. And Dylan has a cough and stuffy nose so hopefully he's not getting one too. But, I feel fine. I didn’t in the beginning when I could not stop throwing up from the medicine that I had to take after a minor surgery on my leg. So anyway I can't wait till we are all back to normal again!

Monday afternoon (Sept 21) Megan and I got our surgeries done. About a month ago we both had to get moles taken off, and the biopsy results came back precancerous. Basically, if we wait a couple of years it could turn into cancer. They had to do a surgery to take more tissue away, so now we don't have that to worry about. It wasn't bad. They don't put you out or anything like that. They just numb it and you don't feel the rest. Anyway, we both have to get all our moles checked every three months now until there are no more bad ones like that, and we have to wear sunscreen all the time. We basically do anyway, so that’s not too bad. I guess we inherited it; it's just in our family. Oh yeah, Megan's surgery was just under her hair line on her forehead so you don't really see it, and mine is on my left leg, so if I want it to heal right I can't really put pressure on it. And I've been on crutches since then. I have been just hobbling around.

Megan got her stitches out yesterday, Sept 30. She is now playing volleyball again, so yay for her. My stitches come out Monday, Oct. 5, but today will be my first day back at swim team. I know I will be tough since I haven’t been able to do very much lately.

A visit with the Paxtons :)

So after Utah, we came home, but then went to Nauvoo to see the pageant and the Minnesota Berges and the temple and the town and carthage where Joseph Smith was killed and some friends of ours :) we took my cousin Colton with us and we had a lot of fun.

Sports Camps

Ok, so Dylan went to tennis camp at BYU and I went to the volleyball camp with Sarah :)..we all had a blast, but unfortunately long story short-I ended up in the ER because I injured my hip and couldn't walk so my camp ended early except I did go back to see all my friends that I made on the last day and Dylan won the WHOLE camp!! :) He came in first place and beat everyone..but he's so modest he didn't even tell us he did until he said he didn't know where to put the trophies..so my mom said what trophies? and he said 'oh yeah i won'!!! he is so modest..i cannot believe it! but here are some photos
