Week in review

Morgan is in the childrens production of Alice in the Looking Glass at Rodger Memorial Theater. She is the ditzi drinkmaster at the tea party. She was great! She performed last Saturday in the matinee and will be in three more Saturday matinee shows. She loves to perform and to be on stage and she always does such a wonderful job! Way to go babe!
This is Elder Aggie who has been teaching, with a translater, the kids the missionary disscussions. They needed some service hours and since Troy has been gone forever and they can't come in without Troy, they decided to come help the kids with their Monday weeding! What a party. We had a quick lunch and got to work and this was the cooling off part that turned into a small water fight. Fun times all around. We are hoping he doesn't get transfered before the kids are baptized. They really like him.
And, yeah! Troy finally made it home this week and we were finally able to celebrate his birthday and fathers day. The kids have been anxiously awaiting this moment. Happy Birthday Troy!




Health notes for those who ask : )

Tanya, Victor and Ana saw the dentist this week and Victor and Ana have a lot of work needing to be done. They both have some teeth that are rotted to nothing... so sad and scary, Victors are permanent teeth. Tanya only has two small cavities to be filled. Troy thinks it's all the sugary tea the kids drank at the orphanage.

Hopefully Victor won't read this. They do have to do exploratory surgery, probably after school starts, to see if he has a second testicle. It's never come down and they say if it's up in muscle it can turn into a tumor.

Ana's heart surgery is now set for August 4th. She will be in the hospital about a week and it will be about 6 weeks for a full recovery. What stinks is she'll be feeling better around three weeks and no swimming, scooters, bikes, trampolies for 6-8 weeks. I don't know what else she does : ) She will probably miss the first two weeks of school. She can't be around groups of people the first four weeks.

All three kids will start their TB medication the first week of July, finally now that we have Tanya's results.

Happy week. Morgan looks great in her outfit. I can't wait to go today and see her perform. Happy b-day to Troy! Let us know if there is anything we can do for you guys in Aug. We fly back in Aug. I would love to help, being so far away I do miss that.

Hi Carlin! It was good to see you today.
Funny thing about the ss office. When I went in WITH Alex's certificate of citizenship, they WANTED a Utah Birth certificate. It sounds like you had the opposite situation? They submitted his info but told me they may not approve it with out a Utah birth certificate.
How weird!
I'm sorry about your grandma but how awesome to be able to pay her such a tribute.
Good luck with your upcoming dental work and surgery's. We go to the dentist this week and I'm not looking forward to it. I'm hoping it's just baby teeth that look bad.
Hope you can make it to lunch on the 7th!
