Well it's about time I update my blog. I'm lazy what can I say. This past week has been a busy one. Mason had his pinewood derby and then on Thursday was the school science fair. Mason's project was on electromagnets and Bryan and him worked hard on it. They figured out that the more times you wrap a piece of metal with wire and hook it up to a battery the stonger a magnet it creates. Jayden's project was on Parachutes and do smaller or bigger one's work better. Jayden and I had fun making the parachutes and then we launched them off Grandma & Grandpa Paxton's back deck and timed them. Anyway Jayden took 2nd place out of the 1st graders so on Thursday he gets to go compete in the Iron County Science Fair.

Thursday on our way to the school to set up the science projects I hurt my back. I have no idea how because I wasn't lifting anything but it just started hurting and then it just kept getting worse. I left work early and by Thursday night I could hardly walk. Friday I got in the car to take Maddy to preschool and it hurt so bad to push on the gas pedal that I just told Maddy to get back in the house and we layed on the couch and watched "Tinkerbell". So that was her school lesson for the day. I think I am now finally on the mend I. Bryan told me I looked like an old man because I have been walking all hunched over, but he has been really good to help out around the house and he even went grocery shopping for me and got everything on the list. I am very lucky to have such a good husband. I think I'll be all better by Monday so I can start up again on my 5:00 am treadmill workouts.
