Four month summary!

Well allow me to apologize for my "slackerness" this last quarter of a year! I have a little bit of an excuse. In January I found out why we haven't been able to have any more kids, I had ovarian cancer! Wow, what a way to turn your life upside down! This specific kind is developed in women before they're 30. I am 30 this year and as it turns out I've had it for at least 3 years. So...most of you were right by my side through it all so I won't go into detail, but ask me in the comments section, if this is news to you, and I will tell ya about it!
Here are some pictures from the hospital. I had surgery and miraculously it was all gone after the surgery. I didn't have to do chemotherapy. There were so many people praying for me. It was very humbling. I want to thank my husband and Madison-of course, my wonderful family, ward, friends, neighbors and most of all my Father in Heaven for this modern day miracle. After I got home from the hospital my parents came for a week and took care of Madison and I. Thank you Mom and Dad. Maddi was ecstatic that Grandma and Grandpa came!














While I was recovering, it was Valentines day and so my sweetheart made me smile!













There is one thing that I was excited to have done and that is, in between surgeries my doctor gave me the go ahead to snowboard one last time! After I recovered, the season would be over, so....









Well that's all the time I have for tonight but more will come about Christmas and California!! I want to keep you all in suspense...
