Hell Week

Where do I begin... Freddy's Grandmother passed away last week then found out Freddy's Mission President, from his 2 year mission in Santiago, Chile, passed away the night before. So we prepared the week for traveling and attending funerals. Turned out we could only do Grandma's, so we headed out to Utah for a family weekend. Freddy's friend, Brian Hadley, supplied our family with a cabin for all of us to crash in in Park City. (Thank you Hadley's.) We decided to make the most of it; walk around Temple Square, see sites, visit friends, etc. The first night we were there, Tre was running wild up an down the hallway with his cousin, Thor. Being the graceful kid he is he ran straight into a doorway. Nasty bruise on his eye; looks like we socked him. Come Sunday night, the funeral was on Monday, Tre started vomiting and continued through the night. It was so bad we decided to skip the funeral and just head home. About 1 hour into the drive, Brooklyn started vomiting. We decided to make a stop at Target to buy a bowl so I could sit in the back to capture their vomit when needed. Like a ticking time bomb. It got so bad, we made it about halfway and just decided to get a room, so we stayed in St. George for the night. It was a long trip home, but we made it. Our house is draped in blankets in case a child decides to "explode."

On a good note, we were able to see extended family, go to temple square and Freddy got to snowboard one day. We played Rock Band a lot and the kids got to all play together. So we actually had a pretty good time. But if you haven't gotten your kids their flu shots yet, I'd highly recommend it...



Salt Lake Temple. It was a beautiful day at Temple Square.
Cute picture of the boys.
Me and Kati being re-tawwded.
Looking down at the temple. There were brides everywhere!
It was cold and the only jacket Brooklyn had was a little bunny jacket. Cute girl...
In the Legacy theater, they are now showing an amazing movie on the life of Joseph Smith. The kids were running around like crazy, so Freddy was kind enough to take them out for me so I could enjoy it. Toward the end, Amy Kay brought over a box of tissues since she saw that I was basket case. Her, Kati and I really enjoyed it. Can you tell by our red eyes in the picture?
Tre's shiner!! It actually got worse than this! We Kuhn's play hard!!

The cousins...
Brooklyn with baby Soda.
They had a family potluck with all of Freddy's extended cousins, aunts and uncles so it was nice to see everyone then since we had to miss the funeral. (This picture doesn't even show how many people were there. Crazy.)
Poor Tre, slumped on the couch. He was so week, poor little guy. But Woody was there to keep him company.
