It has taken me longer to get back on here than I thought.</span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">So much has happened since Monday.</span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">Yesterday, after picking up lunch with my Mom, she received a phone call from my sisters husband. My mom immediately started freaking out! She kept asking what happened? What happened?</span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">Sparing the details; apparently she had a stroke. A small one. She was slurring her speech and unable to communicate. She was rushed all the way from Delta, Utah (her home) up to Utah Valley Hospital in Provo, Utah to have a cat scan.</span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">Within moments my mother, grandma, myself and 4 of my kids knelt in prayer to Heavenly Father, asking him to please bless her and comfort her. </span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">She was experiencing slurred speech, severe fatigue and numbness on the left side of her body.</span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">She had a cat scan yesterday; they found nothing.</span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">She had an MRI this morning; they found nothing.</span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">They will be letting her go home either today or tomorrow.</span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">I cannot believe that a 30 year old woman could have a stroke. It has felt so surreal.</span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">I cannot IMAGINE what I would do if this were to happen to me. </span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">I love my sister. We weren't the best of friends like sisters should be when we were kids but that doesn't keep me from loving and caring about her. We have a great relationship now. We each have 3 kids that were born in the same years. We have lots in common.</span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">I continue to pray for her recovery. I know that she was blessed and comforted by Heavenly Father. I know He heard our prayers and felt our dismay and sorrow.</span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">She has no slurred speech and no more numbness to her body.</span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">I am so grateful her husband was there to care and comfort her too.</span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">My parents left this morning to help take care of her kids until things are figured out.</span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">Family is the most important thing. </span><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;">Hug your babes and your Honey.</span>Krishellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02513266820894427130noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1103646369816632121.post-68459146802731500302008-12-08T14:15:00.001-08:002008-12-08T14:18:53.839-08:00So LAME!<span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 255, 255);font-size:100%;" >So I can't believe that I haven't posted in over 2 weeks!<br />My camera flash stopped working; therefore I seem to think I can't blog!<br />Duh!<br />Although I have been SUPER busy, I'll get you all updated tonight when the kids are in bed!

Since it's on the other side of the world for me I took the freeway.</span><br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">Suddenly I felt my tire pull and NANO seconds later I hear AND feel it shred!</span><br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">Keep in mind I am driving about 70mph in the center lane during lunchtime traffic.</span><br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">All I know is I was guided at that moment because it took everything I had to keep my Excursion in the center lane and pump my brakes. It took me a few moments to move to the right emergency lane; all the time trying to keep from slamming into other vehicles.</span><br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">I go to call Jason when a man and his son pull off in front of me! They helped my change that tire! Can you believe it! Why are there not more good people out there? I couldn't thank them enough! I truly would not have been able to change that tire because the lugs on my Excursion are after market and the wrench I had didn't fit them. I believe it was truly meant for that man to stop.</span><br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">So people, let's get busy serving others! What do we have to loose?</span><br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">Let's first start by moving over a lane when we see someone pulled off! What is wrong with people? All those cars flying past is crazy! Here you are trying to fix your tire and then you have to worry if some maniac driver is going to run you over!</span><br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">I say thank you nice man ( he didn't even share his name!) and his son! I promise that I will pay it forward.</span><a style="font-family: lucida grande;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHnKyd2Koa2N4TWsgMYDIgufwjLSYm8r1368xbDwVBN_l6P1gnV98B8_o7wwNSl2tnMJEYRTbpht3G8qAeQcoMFXU3zIsOjFskpGIOkB5-Q5c-t4P6jO8-zLqRG_yZIjlpsK_t8swsp7w/s1600-h/IMG00159.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 263px; height: 208px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHnKyd2Koa2N4TWsgMYDIgufwjLSYm8r1368xbDwVBN_l6P1gnV98B8_o7wwNSl2tnMJEYRTbpht3G8qAeQcoMFXU3zIsOjFskpGIOkB5-Q5c-t4P6jO8-zLqRG_yZIjlpsK_t8swsp7w/s200/IMG00159.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5257153786318790818" border="0" /></a>Krishellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02513266820894427130noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1103646369816632121.post-53894893665970539212008-10-11T15:35:00.000-07:002008-10-11T16:17:53.995-07:00Busy, Busy Week!!<div><div><div><div><div>This has been such an insane week!</div><div>We have had so much going on and so much to share; so here goes!</div><div>Tuesday:</div><div>Avery finally turned 5! She has been waiting forever! She has been counting down the days since July! We aren't having her party until this coming Saturday but I still wanted to celebrate it and acknowledge it! So I took her to the mall ( her fave place to shop!) to get her ears pierced and to do a little shopping. I was so worried that she would freak out but she did so well! The only thing she said was, "Ouch!". She whimpered a little and then she was ready to go shopping! I guess she is truly a girlie girl; shopping fixes anything! We had fun shopping and I as so proud when she decided to use the money she got as a gift from her Grandma Great Gale on books! A girl after my own heart! She loves to read! She isn't even in kindergarten yet and is reading @ a 1st grade level! Hey, I'm the Mom, I get to brag! Afterwards, we met my cousins and let the kids run around @ Mickey D's. We had Pack mtg for Cub Scouts; so she got to play @ Grandma Dianne's. That night we were supposed to have my famous lasagna bake but I forgot to get the meat out of the freezer so we had KFC! Oh well! She didn't care! For dessert I made mini cheesecakes for everyone! Yum-o! She is very excited about her party and can't wait to "be in charge"! Gotta love her!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgj_KnMmpjrgOxL4Y6XwRHisbyzRAebvIQA6YxXscs-VHUBKj6ztSEnmEjm2eJ3JRZrWbyNZqknHbhKZTJ19MxPFU30qZIF0Vh4hqYLJs2XWHggvzSyDnl_RVhhPfcplb9zDaU-MdaTwZU/s1600-h/DSC01017.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5256032765218713858" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgj_KnMmpjrgOxL4Y6XwRHisbyzRAebvIQA6YxXscs-VHUBKj6ztSEnmEjm2eJ3JRZrWbyNZqknHbhKZTJ19MxPFU30qZIF0Vh4hqYLJs2XWHggvzSyDnl_RVhhPfcplb9zDaU-MdaTwZU/s320/DSC01017.JPG" border="0" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZ096Dr1Y32vOoGRBNE5sFkaHRM5qFQLgbsJMD1TITy3YaOESdPUxlV5E63S2iBzQvX7T2zkzhlxv_htexRfrY1GrN_7dCRn7y7WPFL6pnXltgc2DcyTqb6vgEdPZvYK33QIbgT9TVYAY/s1600-h/DSC01024.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5256034059156609314" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZ096Dr1Y32vOoGRBNE5sFkaHRM5qFQLgbsJMD1TITy3YaOESdPUxlV5E63S2iBzQvX7T2zkzhlxv_htexRfrY1GrN_7dCRn7y7WPFL6pnXltgc2DcyTqb6vgEdPZvYK33QIbgT9TVYAY/s320/DSC01024.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><div>Wednesday-Friday</div><div>For 3 days straight my Mom, Grandma Clark & I were bottling maniacs!</div><div>We bottled:</div><div>26 pints of salsa</div><div>18 quarts of pears</div><div>6 pints of strawberry raspberry pear jam</div><div>9 pints of strawberry blueberry pear jam</div><div>3 quarts of applesauce</div><div>12 pints of applesauce</div><div>6 pints of apple butter</div><div>I was impressed w/ the work we got done working together!</div><div>I am SO very excited to add these to the quarts of peaches and peach freezer jam we made in August!

They love to ride scooters, skateboards and bikes. They're always doing tricks and jumping off ramps. Once in a while someone falls and gets banged up.<br />Well, while I was putting away laundry, Autumn comes screaming into the house like a crazy person.</span> <span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 204);">She was screaming that she fell of the pegs of Tyler's (neighbor boy) bike. She was freaking out so bad; I couldn't even see if and where she was hurt. She makes me go in the bathroom to see. I couldn't see anything on her hands or arms or her face. Then she turns around. Her shorts had slipped as she fell and the only thing between her and the tire and ground were her undies. Her ENTIRE left bum cheek and part of her thigh had lost a few layers of skin! If you've ever seen road rash then you'll know the wound is black from the road. I had to get her into the shower and scrub the wound with a rag and some surgical soap I had left over after Harrison's surgery. </span><span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 204);">Meanwhile, Autumn is SCREAMING like her leg was falling off! (I wonder what the neighbors think!)<br /></span><span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 204);">I wish this was the end of the story but sadly it's not.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 204);">Autumn can't handle pain... ever.

And boy did it arrive with a fiery vengance!<br />Wow! It is such a scorcher already!<br />I haven't had too much time to share w/ you all the fab fun we've been having!<br />We are leaving tomorrow for our annual Gale Reunion Camping Trip!<br />I am so excited! I love the mountains! Especially Beaver Mountain in Utah. I have spent every summer there w/ the exception of 3.<br />I love that I can share this Wonder of God's Creations w/ my kids!<br />They too love Beaver Mountain. They are awesome fishermen/women!<br />Taylor out fishes everyone all the time. He's the 1st to catch a fish and the 1st to catch his limit. He can tie, bait, cast, catch and gut is fish all by himself!<br />Autumn can bait and almost cast her pole herself. She gets so excited about reeling in a catch that she practically screams!<br />Avery and Harrison are learning now and I know soon they will be little fisherkids along with the other 2!<br />My kids love learning the names of the plants and flowers and trees that grow there.<br />Their favorite part besides fishing is riding the Bikes (4 wheelers). Harrison always wants a ride and Taylor is already asking for his own.<br />I am so excited to get out of this heat! I am looking forward to seeing my family and cooking w/ them, laughing w/ them and being w/ them. Unfortunatly, my lil sis won't be there. She just had her 3rd baby on the 21 of June. Yeah for her family though!<br />I'm an aunt again x 5, soon the be the 6x!<br /><br />I hope you all have a fab 2 weeks w/out me! lol!<br />I will have tons of tales to share upon my return!</span>Krishellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02513266820894427130noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1103646369816632121.post-38727532022650373102008-07-01T06:05:00.000-07:002008-07-01T06:25:37.107-07:00Grandpa has Criminals at his house!<span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="color:#ff9900;"><span style="color:#ffffcc;"><span style="font-family:arial;">This weekend Harrison, Owen & I spent Saturday evening at my parents house. Since My mom has my girls in Delta and Jason had Tay on Beaver Mountain, we decided to hang out.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">We took over some oatmeal raisin cookies to share w/ my dad ( they're his fave ). Harrison was sitting on the couch eating his umpteenth cookie while my dad's 2 shelties ( dogs ) sat and waited for a crumb or two. Skampi, the little one, kept putting her paws on the couch near Harrison. He looks at the dogs and says "You guys are a bunch of criminals! Get away from my cookie!" </span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">My dad and I laughed so hard! I have no idea where he heard that word or even knew how to use it! </span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">What's even funnier is that night when he was half a sleep in bed he says to me "Grandpa has a bunch of criminals at his house."</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Needless to say, I had a smile on my face that night as I went to sleep.</span><br /></span><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="color:#ffffcc;">Guess Grandpa needs to reform some dogs</span>.</span></span></span>Krishellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02513266820894427130noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1103646369816632121.post-86180862718763176612008-06-29T20:27:00.001-07:002008-06-29T21:02:59.851-07:00The Leavitt Laundro-Mat<span style="font-family:arial;color:#33ccff;">For the past few weeks I have been running around here trying to get our travel trailer packed and ready for our big summertime camping vacation. Which means I have to make sure that 7 people have 12-15 days worth of clothes each! Plus, I had to pack 2 weeks worth of clothes for my 2 girls who went w/ my mom to Delta, Utah to visit my sister. So this entailed many extra loads of laundry!! Welcome to the Leavitt Laundro-Mat! Which is shear torture for me because I HATE doing laundry! It never ends! I am so happy on the days when all the hampers are empty and all the clothes are put away only to be saddened at the end of the day when my kids get home and some how manage to fill them back up again! I give up! But I would rather die then have my kids wear the same thing 2 days in a row. So I have sentenced myself to a life of laundry duty. sigh. </span>Krishellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02513266820894427130noreply@blogger.com0
