Johnson birthday party

Kristin invited us to Brandon and Ryan's combined birthday party at a fun tumbling place. The girls had a great time running around and Cambria enjoyed the swing and jumping into the foam!!

Best Husband Ever

So I need to pay tribute to my wonderful husband!! Everyday he is amazing but there are some days when he surprises me with extras! Saturday I found out about my missing vertebrae and the Chiropractor told me to take it easy for the weekend and not make the bed or vacuum or other various activities in the home. Tim stepped up and took over and was wonderful. He made dinner and cleaned up on Sunday and vacuumed and cleaned and did laundry on Monday. (which a side story, he kept telling me that he had to work Monday so he woke me up to take him to work so I could have the car to go to the chiro again and when I went out to the kitchen the girls were sitting down to waffles and omelets and a plate was waiting for me. Then he told me he didn't have to work, surprise!!) Then today I had to go to traffic school at 5:45 so I picked him up from work and he drove us down town for my class. He and the girls had to wait for me so he took them to yuckdonalds (only their second time there and hopefully last) and then drove around down town Salt Lake until 7:00. What a wonderful man!! I feel so blessed and lucky so I had to put this out there!

Interesting Things

So for those of you who know me well, you know that I have had back pain on and off for a long time. Last summer I had to go to the Chiropractor just a few weeks before my half marathon to get quickly put back together again. Well last Saturday I had to go again because it was hurting so bad. I found a Chiropractor close and went. I have never had an xray done except for my broken arm and he suggested we take a couple just to see what was going on. Well I am missing my 5th vertebrae. Crazy stuff I know. He told me about 3-4% of people are missing one and other have 6. Mine started to develop but never completed. I do have a nice curve of my spine though! So the 5th vertebrae is supposed to carry 55% of your weight and is a key component in exercise and lifting! Since I don't have one my #4 is picking up the slack hence all of my back pain and problems. What am I to do you ask? Well I need to heal my current pain and then learn how to correctly strengthen my lower back muscles so that I can prevent future back pain. Great things you can learn when you are almost 29 about your body! here are pictures of my xrays the best I could get them.If you start at the top square it goes 11, 12, 1,2,3,and ends at 4.
This xray was like a crooked pictures that you want to straiten! Everything is shifted to the right.
