Spencer got his braces off yesterday and Golfed -6 on the Thanksgiving Point Course with grown men --for a Builder's Real Estate Tournament (Trophy Homes) and took 2nd place overall and 1st place in closet to the pin...he won a $60 gift certificate...gave him the opportunity to really flash those braceless pearlie!!! Today he golfed in a tournament off the SLC airport and tommorrow wraps it up on a downtown SL course.


Sam just finished up his City League Tournament where GrandDad Broadhurst was able to witness a Homerun from him and some amazing pitching.


Megan is wrestling with real life and needing to find a new job. She would prefer one that has her travel to great places and pays her ALOT of money...anyone able to help? We know it is ALL about networking. :) She would also gladly turn in her working uniform for an independently wealthy hunk who adores the ground she walks on and start having my Grandchildren immediately( OK, so maybe that's MY PLAN...just thought I'd throw it in there and see how long it takes her to call me:)


Josh just got back from St. George (much fun with his friend Chad) and had his final interview with the Stake President tonight for his mission...the call could be here as early as 10 days.


Michael comes home in 14 days!!!!!!! Need I say more?


Don is in Ottawa again. GrandDad is in Toronto.


Me and the girlies are getting mighty masterful at mud pies and running cousins all over the county. Oh and snugging kitty cats on Natalie's favorite swing. And "Cracking" their egg while on the tramp. And eating about every 15 minutes...I really LIKE this plan. Elle puts it so directly...."Aunt Natalie, I need delicious food"...my new mantra.


Now Graham...will post Kori's own words.."Hi Everyone,attached are some picts of Graham. He is very swollen in these picts so his head looks lumpy and puffy but he is thinning down and losing much of that fluid. They tried closing his chest yesterday but after about 30 minutes his blood pressure fell and they had to open him back up. Hopefully with all the recent fluid loss the second attempt will be successful. They expect to do his closing some time tomorrow afternoon. Keep him in your prayers."

I heard Spencer had a date too! Things look like they are on the up-and-up with Spencer and Sam.

We'll keep your nephew in our prayers.

Can you share this message with Graham's parents:

Hi, I found your blog and wanted to post a note about congenital heart defects.

My son Jacob is 15 months old now and was born with a heart defect: Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA). We did not know before he was born and he had to be emergency transfered to PCMC. He had open heart surgery at Primary Children's when he was 5 days old.

I am part of a support group called Intermountain Healing Hearts. I do not know if you have seen the posters about our group in the cardiology department when you have been there for appointments. We have over 90 families with children who have various CHD and even some CHD adults in the group!

The group website is: www.IntermountainHealingHearts.org
We also have a Yahoo group for email exchange.

Please let me know if we can be of help to your family in anyway.
