19 Year Anniversary

Caleb and I decided to take a snowboarding trip to Aspen Colorado. I’ve never been and it was on both of our bucket list. We headed out for a nice five day getaway and ended up going to the mountains three days in a row. The first day we went to Highland, the second day we went to Aspen and the third day we went to Snowmass.

We were very sore and tired after three consecutive days, but each mountain offered very unique experiences and it was so much fun. The city offered a lot of easy to get to restaurants and art shows. I love walkable cities. In fact we were able to walk to the gondola it was only about 500 feet from our hotel. We basically snowboarded back home after we were done. we went to some really cool art shows the last day and met with a antique dealer who had some guns from the 1800s. we learned that everybody in Aspen has tassels on all their clothing. We also learned that for is for men and women and preferably worn head to toe. Everybody had a cowboy hat and were most definitely not what we could we would consider cowboys. I guess it’s kind of a chic western look. Anyway, it was hilarious. We also learned that dumb and dumber was not even filmed here and we couldn’t find any places to reenact some of the famous movie scenes.

June was the craziest month I have had in a long time. I am soooo glad it's July! Caleb almost didn't graduate on time and had to pay for summer term. He had one crown that he had to do twice because the lab kept messing it up. The school finally notified us three weeks after graduation that he was OK to graduate and could come checkout. We found out Caleb didn't pass his boards completely and now gets to fly down to California in August to re-do part of it. He has to fly two different patients down too with him, once he finds them. Hopefully he can find one patient that needs both procedures to help save costs. His job in Eugene didn't workout since he didn't pass his boards. They needed someone to start immediately, so they gave it to someone else. The company, Capital Dental, still considers him employed and is keeping his contract. So he still has work, we just have no idea where it will be right now. Hopefully it will be somewhere close to this house we j

Calvin had a bad day

I got a call at work from Krista, the lady who watches my kids. She said Calvin fell and hit his lip and probably needed stitches. I picked up my purse and ran out of work as quick as I could. I was on hold for 15 minutes trying to reach his doctor, which was aggravating. But once they answered I was at Krista's door and could see what was going on. Calvin was playing in a bedroom, tripped, and fell onto the frame of the bunkbed. Which is metal by the way. The sharp edge of it too. Poor kid always falls, but usually it's the forehead that gets the brunt of it. This time it was his lip. The upper part of his gums really. You can see most of the cut here: We finally reached his doctor and took him in. They didn't give him stitches even though it was still bleeding. It's been 8 hours now and it still bleeds when he talks, eats or drinks anything. It has not stopped him from doing his sound effects for cars and trucks so he spits blood everywhere. Of course, I wore
