Well it has been a bittersweet week in my family. My Grandma Haaga passed away August 1st. She had another stroke the same day Darchelle went into labor...My poor day one sec he is so excited that he is going to be a Grandpa and then he gets a phone call that his mom had a stroke. She has had a stroke a couple of years ago and had been developing Alzheimer's and this stroke was a really bad one they said she wasn't going to make it, she wasn't able to eat, swallow or really move anymore so they took her off of her meds and oxygen and had her on morphine till she passed. So even though we are going to miss her soo much we are happy that she gets to be with her husband and family again and is now back home to our Heavenly Father!! She really was the Sweetest Grandma she always said how beautiful we were and always gave us hugs and was always so positive.
Another thing is my brother Traven on his mission had to be rushed to the hospital because he developed a hole in his lung, its called Pneumothorax. He had a really sharp pain in his chest and was trying to breathe. Right now they are trying to figure out the surgery for him to have it in Texas or to bring him home so my parents can be with him. The mission president decided it would best to send him home but the doctor said it didn't heal enough to fly home yet so that is still in the air. My mom, I feel so bad she is so strong and is hanging in there. Traven is the cutest kid and so sweet and he just has such a positive attitude.
Now on a good and more happy note My sister was able to bring her baby home Sunday afternoon and I was able to fly home!! I flew home Saturday evening for the funeral and it was a plus to be able to hold my NEW nephew I go back Wed. morning, bummer I miss home so much it feels so good to be in Utah the smell of my moms home was amazing to me!!! and the weather I will never again complain about the heat in Utah, ok maybe not we will see, but I forgot how much I missed Utah summer nights they are so relaxing Austin, Texas is just gross and humid 24/7. Well I have pics of the new babe but I am having trouble so I will try to post later.
