For fall break we took a trip up to the cabin in Idaho...

It was amazing, the weather turned out to be perfect and we were able to see some wildlife while we were out and about.

Can you spot the moose in this picture??

One morning when we woke up Renn opened the window and there was a little fawn right outside looking at us, he was so cute but I was a little concerned that his mother wasn't around.

(he was a lot closer but by the time I got my camera he had gone over the fence)

We spent one of the days in Jackson Hole and one of the days driving forever to get to Yellowstone. Here are some of those pics...

Isaac thought that the wind was sooo much fun!!

Peek-a-BOO!

This was a cool rainbow that we saw just as we were getting back to the cabin.

Family Pics!!

We went up Spanish Fork Canyon and took family pictures, it was a lot of fun....Here are some of our favorites....

My life in a tunnel...

This week has been really hard. It started over a week ago when I had this ringing in my ears that made it really hard to hear. It was very frustrating and I just kept hoping that it would go away, by Thursday I finally called a ENT specialist to see if I could get in, they said that it would be a week, but what could I do so I made and appointment and hoped that I wouldn't go crazy before then, well, the ringing went away that day and I was hearing just fine. Then later that night my hearing just slowly started to go away. Friday morning I could hardly hear a thing, I emailed my mom in a panic knowing that moms can produce miracles and she got me in to see a doctor that morning, I was soo happy and scared at the same time, I was not sure what was going to happen to me. I ended up having a hearing test and found out that I had sever hearing loss in my left ear(I have been deaf in my right ear since I was a baby). The doctor explained that this is not uncommon and that it is treated with steroids, and that sometimes from two weeks to two months to work. I am not sure I am prepared to handle this for the long hall...I know that we all have trials but when your trial is one of your biggest fears in life it really seems unbearable. The steroids make me cranky and sick, I am depressed, I pray that I can handle this with the faith that I know I need to have. I am so grateful to have a husband that cares so much for me and who will still try and talk to me even though half the time he has to repeat himself. I am so happy to have a baby who doesn't care that I can't hear him and who loves me anyway.
