Shaffen's HOME!!!

So it was a long week and Shaffen is finally home! He missed Covin's first football game he was able to play. I tried to get a little video for him. We cracked up at this one, he is blocking this kid and neither one would give up. They were in the middle of the field when everyone else had ran to score a touchdown. After a while Covin noticed that everyone else was gone and then took off running! It was funny. He was crying at the end of the game, I started to get mad because I couldn't understand why he would be crying. He finally told me that he didn't want to lose the game. I felt bad for him, but I was sorta relieved that he was crying because of that! After the game Nikki and the boys were headed to RV for Richie's race and Keenan's birthday. Nikki took Covin with her. I had mentioned going to RV to Covin earlier in the week and changed my mind towards the end. He had been so excited to go that I didn't want to disappoint him, so Nikki and Mandy took care of him for me. Thank you guys he had a blast!

But in the meantime Conner was very, very upset. He wanted to go with Nikki also. That little boy threw a fit for over an hour. When I put him in his car seat he kicked his shoes off, threw his socks at me and tried to throw his soda at me. He continued to pull at the straps and scream Ikki's house the whole way home. He usually gives up after a while, but this day didn't go that way. I videoed 4 times with my camera because I wanted Shaffen to see what I had been dealing with that week. He first went behind the black recliner and screamed then he started throwing the shoes and Covin's uniform towards me (not sure if it was at me). He kept making that annoying scream the whole time. The 3rd video he was screaming and I ended up turning it off because he was attacking my legs and feet! What a turkey, I couldn't help but laugh the whole time because it was so ridiculous!

Sorry about all of the videos they are short ones!

So while I was talking to Shaffen on the phone while he was in Utah he tells me, "I got the boys a present!" I said, "Oh yeah what did you get them?" He says all excited, "I got them harmonica's!" I said, not so excited, "Seriously??!!!!" He says, "Yes they will love them!" Me, "Yes, I know they will love them BUT I am sure I won't!"

Yes they do LOVE their harmonicas! Not surprised! They are hilarious, but annoying! Covin comes home everyday asking if he can play his instrument! It is quite funny to listen to them. Shaffen put Piano man on the computer so Covin could hear the harmonica in the song. He was actually trying to play the song. They are funny. Conner walks around all day asking for his Birthday present, just the harmonica (present), I am not sure where the Birthday part came from!

So we are very excited to have Shaffen back home. I don't think the boys will allow him to leave again. Conner woke up almost every night crying and asking where his daddy go? I felt bad for them. When he went to work on Monday morning Conner was crying for him again. He does not do good with change. It was definitely a long week, but we all survived! :)

Covin is doing fine, he is back to normal. We are very glad that he is feeling better. There really wasn't an explanation for everything. We just hope it doesn't come back! The only thing he talks about now, is how he had 6 pokes from the hospital and that is not nice!!!

Yesterday Shaffen called me at work and told me that there were 3 instructors from his school that got into a shooting on Saturday in Utah. The school ended Friday evening and they all traveled home on Saturday. Shaffen and the guys that were with him went to IHOP before they endured the drive home. These 3 instructor went to a IHOP in the opposite direction. While they were in the parking lot they saw a man stabbing another man in the neck with scissors. The officer drew his gun told the man to stop. He did not and continued to stab the man, and the officer shot him 2 times. How creepy is that!!!! http://www.ksl.com/?nid=148&sid=4253806

There were a few news stations that did the story. It is very interesting! FREAKY!

I am very glad it wasn't my husband in the situation, but I know that it could happen anywhere! He could definitely get the job done. I just don't want all of the aftermath! Scary thought!
