Max and Tommy's Teeth!

This break has brought some interesting teeth experiences for "the boys"...

Tommy has the happier story of the two. He lost his Left front tooth on Christmas Eve and was singing "All I want for Christmas was my two front teeth" the rest of the night. Way to go Tom:)

Here is Max. He was playing football with the other boy cousins when somebody tackled him onto the tile, head first. His tooth cracked almost in half and the bottom piece shattered. We could only find small pieces of it on the tile floor. :(

Its been an interesting break...

We have had all of the family visiting from all over the place! It was fun to see everyone and do various activities with each other! There was only one down part... we had a sickness sweep throughout the whole trip. I think that we had around 26 people infected in all. :( By the end we had gone through the common routine of "i need the bucket" about 100 times. (And I think we can all agree that we know how to be a "germaphobe"). But despite all of the sickness, we were so happy that everyone put in the effort to come and visit us! Thanks guys! Get well soon!:)

The funniest picture i've ever taken of a dog!

Hey everyone! This is Alyson:) I was sitting on the ground watching/taking pictures of Tom and Max's last lacrosse game when a dog came up right next to my face. I just took a picture of him quick, which i think must have surprised him or something cuz of the face he made. It was so funny! (sorry 'bout the bottom of the pic. i don't know what happened when i loaded it!)

Alyson goes to the space center!

Last Friday night my friend Sarah and I went to The Christa McAuliffe Space Education Center
(or the space center for short:). It's name makes it sound like some kind of place where you take classes on space, but it is totally different. You get to go on these "space ships" that are basically a big room with lots of computers that are designed for different jobs. (engineer, security, comunications officer, captan, and many others depending on the ship) The ships look real and the situations that they put you in seem just as real, even though you have alien or other life forms that are trying to kill you or come on your ship. It is hard to explain how much fun it is. You kind of have to be there and experience it.

The mission I did on Friday was about 6 hours. I was the engineer and had to crawl into this tiny hole that led to a small closrofobic room. ( if you look on there website there is a video of one of the missions and if you look to the back of the space ship you can kind of see the hole.) Anyways, in this small, tight room there were trap doors that intruders came in through to kill us. It was a hard and stressful job, espeshially when the lights went out and I had to plug things in, take chips in and out of holes, and yell orders to others while only useing a teeny flash light.
Here is the web site for this place if you want to see pictures and find out more if your confused.-http://spacecamputah.org/

Good Times with the Cranes!!!:)

It seemed like just yesterday. The girls were skating on the wood floor, the boys were playing video games all day, and the adults were having fun exercising and having fun talking. Now were going to party at the Cranes new house. Those were good times. We are all so excited! We love the Cranes!!!!!
