Photowhat??

Another whirlwind of a week here at the Horton household, but hey, that's life with a big family, right?? It started off pretty slow. Daddy is doing much better. He is feeling good and getting around the house pretty well. You would never know he fell about a week ago!! Yea!!

Unfortunately, Hanni sprained her ankle on the trampoline Tuesday evening. Poor thing, was pretty sore Tuesday night and Wednesday early morning. I took her to the doctor on Wednesday morning and he confirmed that it was sprained and sent us out to a medical specialty place with a prescription for a pediatric air cast. Unfortunately the first place I went didn't carry them for her size and sent us to another place that had to special order one for her size. We finally got her one by Thursday so she couldn't walk until then. She can walk with her air cast though and is healing great and very happy to be able to move around more. That will be on for about a week to help stabilize her ankle while it heals completely! I am so glad her doctor takes extra care for things like sprains because I sprained my ankle as a teen and still feel it sometimes so I am so glad she will get the chance to let it heal properly! Here is a pic of the lil diva in her cool new accessory!!

She is definitely milking it and loving every minute of being waited on!! Everyone has pitched in, including big brother who gets her ice cream every afternoon while I go get the big girls from school. lol
Here is a pic of her at her favorite restaurant, Denny's, while she was out of school on Wednesday to go to the doctors office. She loved mommy carrying her everywhere but mommy was WORN OUT!!!

She did love going back to school today for her first full day back since her sprain! What a trooper! Daddy and mommy are so proud of our Hanni!!

Eli had a great afternoon today too! He went to the door and found a package. Usually that is no big deal since they are usually for the adults but this one was to Kate Horton/Homeschool! It was from Scholastic? I opened it with Eli and it was our 20 books from the Sunny D Challenge we participated in!! Thank you so much Sunny D and Scholastic!! Eli was so excited and to be honest so was I! I love when the kids get books, especially ones we will use at school! I immediately began looking for what we can use for our book of the week next week, but guess what? Next week is St. Patty's Day and I already have a book for that! So I will just have to look for one for the week after. How awesome though for Eli! He worked so hard saving his labels and making everyone drink Sunny D! Great Job, Buddy!!


I had a big day today! I got a new camera!!!!! I am so excited! We ended up getting a Nikon but don't ask me which on because I have no clue since this is all new to me. I probably can only tell you it has a lot of buttons and a big price tag. I am so excited to learn to use it though! I get to go pick it up on Thursday since they didn't have any at the store and had to order it for me. We also got Photoshop which I have been wanting to get for years but now that I have it, I have no clue where to begin! lol I am sure I will figure it out though soon enough.

I am also starting a new blog. I will be keeping this one and our Horton Family Happenings blog but this one will be about our journey through finding health as a family. I am looking forward to this journey and looking forward to sharing and documenting this journey to be able to see how far we come as we go through the process. I don't know when I will start the blog up but it will be very soon so be on the look out if you are interested.
