This is what we have been up to

So we have had a lot of fun the last couple of weeks. After the Piute County Fair was over it was then time for the Garfield County Fair. We ended up going to Panguitch and had a BBQ at Anne and Chiz's house with Chiz's sisters. It was fun Dustin even cooked the hamburgers. While we were there Dalley fell in love with Anne's niece. I tell you that kid finds women wherever he goes. He is quite the little Casanova. After the BBQ we went to the rodeo and Dalley rode his first sheep. He wasn't very happy with the crash helmet they made him wear but other than that he did pretty good. I am a little bummed though because the arena was indoors and it was so dark I didn't get a very good picture.
Last week we took Dalley to Primary Children's for tests. We met with the pulmonary specialist and he determined that Dalley probably has Immobile Cilia Syndrome. he also found that Dalley has a distended diaphragm. He said that it was really obvious on every x-ray Dalley has had and he was amazed that nobody has caught it yet. Anyway what that means is that on Dalley's left side his diaphragm is distended up onto his lung. This reduces his lung capacity and makes it harder for him to breathe. He said that as Dalley gets older we will watch him and if his breathing ends up being too limited they will have to operate to fix it. He also put Dalley on a twice daily medication that is supposed to make it easier for him to breathe. The next day we went to the kidney specialist and they said he is doing really well. His left kidney is dilated more than she would like to see but she thinks that we can wait until February to do more testing to find out why.
Then on Saturday we went to Panguitch and went to the Demolition Derby with Anne and Chiz. It was my and Dalley's first time at a derby. Dalley did ok until the first big hit then he didn't think it was so cool anymore. We then went to Dustin's grandma's house because they were having a party for her 84th birthday Dustin really enjoyed seeing a lot of his relatives he hasn't seen in awhile. After that we went with Anne and Chiz to play cards. It was a lot of fun.
Last night Anne and I went to Cedar to watch a play at the Shakespearean Festival. It was called Private Lives and it was roll on the floor funny. I laughed a lot and the actors did a really good job. It was fun to have a girls night, I haven't had one of those in years.

Here is a picture of Dalley eating a carrot right out of my garden. He picked it himself and didn't even bother washing the dirt off first. I wasn't too happy about that.


Here is Dalley playing with Desiree his newest love interest.

This is my attempt at taking a picture of Anne and me, I guess it didn't work so well, but Anne looks cute.
Dalley has an obsession with putting on other peoples shoes. He decided to steal Anne's boots

All I can say is good times and more to come! I thought that play was the best ever, those boys really would have liked it, but I doubt that they would have admited it! haha!
