A place to "gather" and "talk" when we just can't make it home
37.5 and counting...
"The family. We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together." ~Erma Bombeck
"All of us, single or married, are eternally part of some family--someway, somewhere, somehow--and much of our joy in life comes as we correctly recognize and properly develop those family relationships. We come to this earth charged with a mission: to learn to love and serve one another. To best help us accomplish this, God has placed us in families, for he knows that is where we can best learn to overcome selfishness and pride and to sacrifice for others and to make happiness and helpfulness and humility and love the very essence of our character. " ~John H. Groberg

That is a pretty sweet battle wound! I showed Tyler and it made him want to throw up! :) hope it heals fast...wish I could have seen that game!!
Holy Cow!! How stitches did you have to get? I am wondering what kind of awesome moves on the field scored you that trophy? Maybe I should think twice about you teaching Kaden everything you know?! :) I hope you heal quick and you seriously need to let us all in on the details of how it happened, or maybe nat could! We love you!
Love Karissa
Woah! What was that? A shoe??
Very nice! Let me guess, it was your turn to sit out and some kids were playing on the bleachers, throwing stuff at each other, and you got clocked with a stray missile....
Women are funny that way...they won't let you just tough it out. I remember returning home from a ski trip with a gash in my head and being immediately sent back out the door to the ER. Like yours, it was merely a flesh wound...
Okay---I guess I should look at my email more often. Actually, we were at the temple until 10pm last night, so I missed out on the excitement! I was wondering why you were wearing that hat when I came over today, Chris----I can't believe you didn't say anything! (Well, actually I can believe it....). You always did give soccer your all!
