CRAZY September 2010

Well, September was not my favorite month this year :)
My mom decided a little while ago to try and sell her house and move to St. George (A long time dream of hers!). Well good news for her, she sold it and moved on the 11th! I'm so happy for her, but man I miss her!!

Also, I had been having some random things going on with my eyes for a few weeks so I went in for a check up. The doctor I went to did the exam and told me that my retina was detached in my left eye and sent me to a specialist for surgery! Wow... so I went to the specialist who actually said that both my left AND right eye had detached retina's and I would need surgery on both eyes. So on the 10th of September I went in for surgery. I must say, I didn't like it!!

My right eye was pretty minor, only needing some laser repair. So that eye was good to go after a day or so. My left eye not so much. They went in and made my eye look like "hamburger" (That's what the dr. actually said! Haha, right?!). Not too pretty... swollen, red (not pink) and blurry. They put a buckle around the eye, and also put a gas bubble in the eye to help hold the retina in place. Good news for that is that it will go away in about a month or so and I'll start to see again. Bad news is no flying (or really any traveling) while that's still there. Oh wait, our trip to Florida is on Oct. 9th! Doesn't look too good for me :)
Whoosh! Onto something fun!! My sister, Amber won tickets to the Brad Paisley concert and took me along. This ended up being one of my favorite concerts too! We had FANTASTIC seats! 2nd row, center stage... no complaints! We had an unfortunate drunk guy bug us for awhile, but once he was gone, the concert only got better and better! Thanks sis!

AUGUST FUN

Where are the days going?! August FLEW by this year for me. It started with a lot of fun when my nephew turned one year old!! YAY! He had a great birthday party too. They rented a huge blowup movie screen and had an outside movie night. Lots of fun there!



Then on the 12th my mom had her birthday. She turned 29 yet again, but man she looks good for her age, right?! Needless to say, she's not big on birthday's, so we kept it pretty low key for her sake!


On the 19th Bitty Sue turned 19! What a fun time that was too. My mom and I were able to sneak away for a weekend and visit the girls down south (we missed Ams though). As per Becky's request, we spent her birthday in Vegas. Man, that was a lot of fun to just go around and shop and not have to worry about having the stroller with us :)




Then on the 23rd, we took Zack out for a little family night to the Bee's game. He LOVED watching baseball... in fact, ever since that game, his favorite song is "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" and gladly will sing it at the top of his lungs in the middle of ANY store! Good times there...

Zack showing us his teeth.. and being a little creepy!
