Urban Dare

So Stacy and I did a race in Scottsdale on Saturday called the Urban Dare. It's basically a scavenger hunt around the downtown Scottsdale area. So we got clues and then had to go take a picture with something. We also had some dares too like eating gelato or doing a wheel barrel race in the dead and dry Arizona weeds. I think that we had to have walked/ran about 5 miles . It was exhausting.Before the race

Crazy hair! It was hot... this is when we started getting hot and sweaty lol.
Yet another horse.
Little horsie!
Last clue!
All done getting food!

A day with the Vanvalkenburg's

On Monday I got the privilege of watching my beautiful niece Megan and we had all sorts of fun. She has grown and learned so much since the last time I saw her. She now blows kisses and even embellishes it with a "muah". She has all of her sign language down so she can tell you exactly what she needs or wants. While we were having a snack of applesauce and goldfish, she would kiss each goldfish, wave bye-bye to it and then eat it. It was the cutest and most hilarious thing.


Me and the baby.Aunt Tami came to visit too.

Somebody found my tip money in my purse and found it really fun to play with!
Counting the money!

Megan loves to help clean up. I had taken my shoes off by the couch and she picked them up and put them with the rest of the shoes...so cute! So I got the idea to put her into my shoes. They almost went up her whole legs. She thought it was so funny. She held my hand and tried walking in them and she actually got pretty good at it. She must have had fun because she kept going back to my shoes and giving me her "more" sign. So I would put the shoes back on her and we'd walk around for a while.

That night I also got to hang out with Kristie and Josh which was a lot of fun because I don't get to see them often. We had dinner and a few hours of playing wii. It was fun and my arm was definitely sore the next day from bowling and tennis! All and all it was a good day.

Surgery

So I haven't been able to get on the internet since I've been in Arizona so I haven't been able to update. Jon went to see a specialist in Seattle on Wednesday and the break was worse than thought. So he was scheduled for surgery today at 5pm. He actually just got out of surgery and everything went great. He now has a metal plate in his right collar bone to stabilize it and help it heal correctly. He will have to spend the night in the hospital but I believe that his mom is going to stay with him. They think he'll have a one to two inch scar. It was hard to not be able to be there for him. However, his mom called/text me and kept me updated on his status. So hopefully I'll get to talk to him late tonight or tomorrow.

Broken

So most of you know by now that there was a very unfortunate event that happened yesterday. Last night in Colorado, Jon was playing lacrosse and he was hit illegally and sent flying through the air. He spent 3 hours in the hospital and he had broken his right collar bone. The doctor said that he will have to sit out for 4-6 weeks. Jon is hoping for 4 weeks of course because of their biggest game against BYU on April 26th. There's not much the doctors can do for him right now just some pain killers and a sling to keep his arm from moving. He has an appointment tomorrow to see if he is going to need surgery. I kinda hope that he does because then we'll know that it has healed correctly. However, it will be hard to not be able to be with him during that time. I feel like we are always apart during the most important times....but anyways. He plays a big role on the team, he's not only one of the best players but the guys also look up to him, so to say the least the team is pretty upset. Also, since it is his right collar bone he's not going to be able to write, meaning that taking notes in class is going to be difficult. I have a feeling I'm gonna be doing a lot of cooking and cleaning ... but I'm happy to. I love him so much. Well I will keep you posted on what the doctors says tomorrow!

Bored

So I just got my final grades back and I got 3 A's and a pass... which means I get to reinstate my U of O scholarship!! Yay for more money. So now I'm done with school and I'm sitting at home all by myself and it's really boring lol. I'm so excited to go home and then go to Arizona!!

Ok so in my boredom I was sorting through some old photos and I found this...

This was the first day me and Jon ever hung out over 2 years ago. I think we look so much younger, don't you?

Nathan's Visit

This weekend Jessica's boyfriend, Nathan came to visit. The four of us had a lot of fun hanging out together...usually it's just me, Jess and Jon. We went to Jon's game together on Saturday it was a beautiful day as you can see. They played the best team so far, Montana, but they still ended up winning 22-9. Jon got the first goal of the game and two more after that.

We also went on a double date on Saturday we went to dinner and a movie.
