Traditions

 Today I put the football flag tradition to bed. 😥 it's been 7 years since we started delivering flags to our neighbors on game day. 🏈 Today I delivered all the flags but texted that I wouldn't be picking them up. The flag is theirs to keep. 

I will miss those cold Fall mornings blasting Halloween music in your truck with the kids in the back. I won't miss the freezing, late night flag pick ups though. 🥶

It was a fun tradition that started out as fundraising for Humanitarian trips but when those stopped it funded Disneyland memories. Fall has always meant football flags and Disneyland. I didn't go cold turkey...I kept our Disneyland plans this year. 😆 We leave next week. It won't be the same without you. ☹️



Jarom and Jace are at the BYU vs UTAH game. They camped over night in line to make it to the pregame recording. They are hard core. I love that they have this passion in common. I’m wearing a BYU shirt today, put out our flags and checked the score at halftime. That’s my level of commitment. 😂





For Jaces sake, I really hope BYU wins because I think he’s bet everything he owns on this game. 🤨 I am pretty confident he’s even muttered some bargain prayers in your direction. 😇

Cause of Death

  Babe!   What the heck?!   I picked up your Autopsy and Toxicology  report yesterday.    Cardiovascular disease?? Myocardial fibrosis?? Pulmonary edema???   How is that real? How does that equal this: How does this make sense? We get this report 👆saying your  biological age is 11.7 years younger than your calendar age and then 10 days later you are gone?! The only time I ever heard you mention something about your heart was a week before you died !  We talked about the surprising blood results concerning your heart and I asked you if you felt any of it.   You said: "No" with a mouthful of spinach. You admitted your heart hurt recently because we were fighting.  "Being distant from you has been really hard on me." You said.  "My heart hurt a lot." I thought you were being dramatic! 🙄🤯🥰. You said you were sure the next round of blood results in July would be better because we were better.   The only red flag w...

Hobi Notes

                                                                  Hey Teach! Nice Pic! 🤓😍 Caroline dropped off the remainder of your personal belongings and your school photos at home today.  These new piles of you were kind of rude to show up here full of your personality.  Especially your Ironman bag.   Ugh!  Sent me to tears.  I've seen you carry that bag in and out of this house so many times I almost expected to see you walk in the door. I haven't touched it.  It's still sitting in the entry.    Inside the box is a depiction of your brain:  calculator, chargers, books, timers and ...a ball of yarn...??🙄. sounds about right! 😆  (Joshua loves your timers -removed before the pic- he is trying to race around the backyard before they go off, and Jadon loves the ...
