Life's little Lessons

I have been following a couple blogs lately. Janae Whites Blog as she fights for her Life with Brain cancer touches me everyday I read. She has been my young womens' leader, seminary teacher, and friend. My thoughts often go to her daughter Bergan. Bergan was the only Laurel to graduate with me in High School. Sometimes I felt like we were the only "Mormons" in Eastmont. I remember the love her family had and what it taught me. I think I often looked for good loving couples to hope for. To see a couple still in love after 25 years. That was and is hard to find these days. The white family has always been an example to me! It has been nice to have bergan in Boise and see her once in awhile and have someone from my childhood home to have lunch with. I was inspired by the Blog and if anyone wants to read about and amazing woman it is calvinandjanae.blogspot.com

Reed's grandma is doing well!!! We went to Utah to visit her and family! I got to see Bonnie's perfect little boy and it was nice to see Reed's family! All is well with us, just busy with med school stuff, work, and church! Reed got back from his week San Francisco trip today, it is nice to have him home again!!!!!!!!! Reed starts back up with Grad school on Monday, and I am trying to get as much done before we head to Trish and the boys in Va over Labor day weekend!

Love,
Reed & Brooke

Birthday update

Reed is a sweet husband. Today is my 26th birthday. Last night Reed made dinner (Spaghetti & garlic Bread) for Gena, Melanie, the Thomas's and us. It was amazing, when Reed cooks it is awesome. If only I could get him to do it more than a couple times a year:) Anyway, thank to all my amazing family and friends for the Birthday Wishes.

We found out Saturday that Grandma (Reed's Grandma) has a massive blood clot and has a 50 50 change of making it. We are still waiting to here if she will be ok. We were planning on going down to Salt Lake anyway this weekend for her 80th birthday, hopefully she will be coming home from the hospital then!!!!! My mom is recovering from her surgery, they got all the masses and she is home "bored" she says. Gena is still recovering from her car accident and looking for a new car as she battles the insurance companies. Reed and I are really busy with work and med school applications. Tomarrow Reed gets his scopre back from the MCAT! Anyway, we are well, just trying to keep up with our busy lives!!!!

Thank you for your love and support!!!

A Busy Week

This week has been busy for Reed as he struggles to work on MD/PHD applications and keep up with work. My work has been busy this week with Bosie Distribution in full swing. Mom (Debbie) is doing well we are anxiously awaiting her surgery results today.
Last night Gena got into a car accident (my mother in-law) and we spent most the evening in the emergency room. She is ok just pretty banged up with a totaled car. We will be staying the weekend with her and helping out. Other that that life is pretty much up to usual!

The Gang at Red Robin

Melanie and I play peek a boo

The zoo V-day 2009

When Reed, Melanie, and I went to the zoo last valentine's day we saw this sad little animal pressed up against the glass. The zoo keeper overheard us and came up and told us her story. Apparently she was about 15 and her new mate the male was less than 2 years old. The keeper said she desperately wanted kids but that her mate was still to young to father them, and she was reaching old age and next year would probably be too late. So I took this sad little picture.

Sa mama

Well, that has caught you all up to us as of the end of May 2009:) KJ has been urging us to start a blog, and after Steph Started hers for Jerulsulam I figured we better get on in. We got back from our 12 day vacation to Mexico this week. We had a blast in Cancun, and then down in the Riviera Maya with Marcia and Kim. We will post pictures from the trip soon!

Love,

Reed & Brooke
