RIP Steve

Ok so now I know why we don't have pets! Haven's fish Nemo died (I think it got stuck in the water filter), and Joe's bunny Steve died. We have no idea what happened to poor Steve, but Stumper is still alive and kickin! Those of you who don't know Haven don't know what an animal lover she is. She adopted a snail for a weekend and even decided that she wanted to catch grasshoppers the other day. The grasshopper phase lasted about as long as it took to catch the thing. Oh yeah, we filled the hummingbird feeder at my mom's yesterday and much to Haven's dismay there was a dead hummingbird face up underneath it this morning. Needless to say I don't advise any of you asking us to take care of your pets when you go out of town!

Scared of the grasshopper
Haven painted this rock that says "RIP Steve" and placed it on his grave.

You crack me up Melissa! Sad story...but funny! We have managed to kill off 2 beta fish in less than 6 months, so I can relate. (PS if you can't keep a beta fish alive, you don't deserve to have pets) That RIP rock is so funny, and Haven is so stinkin cute in that last pic with the hat on!

PS So how is life back in good old UT???

Hey guys,
How's it going? We appreciate your prayers ,we definitely need them. I know that's why were able to deal with this . I know that Karson is alive only for me,Darren and Hadley. His doctors told me last week they didn't think he would still be here. He's a fighter. Can I just say how beautiful your kids are and I really mean it. By the way I've seen Rory a bunch of times at the hosp. We will get together when things get a little better.
P.S. make sure Joe knows that gorilla had skid marks on his lips. It was disgusting !
