One Week Post-Op
Becky had her one week post-operative appointment with Dr. Parris today. It felt so good to get the dressing off for a little while! Dr. Parris was pleased with how the X-ray looked. You can see the two pins he used to fuse the joint they reshaped during surgery.

Becky Get's "New" Foot
On April 16th, Becky had surgery on her right foot to correct a painful bunion that she has had most of her life. It had begun to interfere with her ability to walk and drive the car, so we decided it was time to finally do something about it.
The picture to the right doesn't do Becky's green foot justice, but they used some green cleansing agent prior to starting the surgery that left Becky's foot looking pretty sick once we got home from the hospital. Check-in was at 7:00 a.m. and we were on our way home by 1:00 p.m. the same day! Jeff and Jayden came along for the journey, and Jayden was sure ready to go home when the time came. =)
Now Becky has to stay off her foot, no weight bearing what-so-ever, for at least six weeks. She is getting used to crutches (her palms and underarms are bruised) and is excited to have her knee-walker arrive later this week. The knee-walker is like a scooter that will keep Becky's foot off the ground, but will make it easier to get around and do things that a mother of five busy children needs to do. Driving is still out of the question though. It's a good thing Ashley got her driver's license on Monday!

Happy Birthday Mom Anderson!
I have several more video clips, but decided I'd better stop here. =)

I'm A Great-Aunt!
Congratulations to my nephew Brad and his wife Dani on the birth of my first great-nephew. Garrett Theadore was born early this morning and weighed in at 10 pounds 8 ounces! My sister Tracy (who is now a grandma!) reports that mom and baby are doing well. A whole new generation just joined our family. We are so blessed!!!

Weiser Wins!
Megan's basketball team played Payette today. They played a great game and won 24 to 14. It has been fun to watch Megan develop her talents. She even told me that running was getting easier. Pretty good for my little asthmatic! Great job Megan!

Jayden and Bishop Winegar
We had tithing settlement today with Bishop John Winegar. Jayden made sure to point out that his birthday was in 7 days. When the Bishop asked if he could come to our house on Jayden's birthday to give him "some smacks", Jayden, after a moment of thought, replied "if you have money you can". I guess we know what Jayden thinks is important. =)

First Real Snow
We woke up this morning to our first real snow of the season. Cordell had fun taking pictures of it, so I thought I would share them with you.
I am so not ready for winter!

Ashley and I went to see New Moon last night with my book club group. There were 18 of us, and we had a blast! Jennifer Miller and Christy Waite got to the theatre around 5:30 to make sure we'd be first in line for the 8:15 showing. Thanks ladies!
The rest of us showed up piecemeal after that.Posted by Becky A at 3:12 PM 6 comments

Thanksgiving Lunch
Brooke's school had Thanksgiving lunch today, and Jeff, Jayden and I were able to enjoy the afternoon meal with her. The cooks made great homemade rolls and a pumpkin dessert that Jayden really enjoyed. To bad the day is soon coming when Jayden and I won't be able to share a meal any more. Before I know it, Jayden will rivel Cordell in food consumption volume. (Cordell says Jayden will never beat him! He may be right...)

Ashley Performs
Last night Jayden and I got to attend Ashley's Treasure Valley Honor Band performance at Northwest Nazarene University in Nampa, Idaho. The band performed very well. I especially enjoyed their last song - Spitfire. It had so many time signatue changes that it made the kids really work to stay in tempo. When Ashley finally gets her CD of the performance, I'll see if I can figure out how to post Spitfire for your listening pleasure. For now, see if you can find Ashley in this photo. Great job Ashley!

OK, so I think I'm learning how to do this. =)

The Begining
I've been feeling for a while now that it is time for me to do better at recording what is happening with my family and sharing those happenings with our friends and family. So, like so many of my family before me, it is time for me to enter the world of blogging. Now if I could just figure out how to customize my template....
