SCARY!!!!!

Question: What ever in the world is this a picture of?
Answer: The Nurse in charge of me at clinicals today. Although this isn't an ACTUAL photograph of her, these physical characteristics uncanningly mimic her internal attitude towards having a student Nurse follow her around all day.
On a positive note: I made it out alive!!!!

We are the Keddingtons!!!

Josh is 37 years old, and works as a systems network administrator for a mortgage company. In March of 2008, he received his Bachelor's degree in Business Information systems!!! Josh is a great dad, and is so excited to finally have another man in the house since the birth of our little Chaz Man!!!We are thankful for his kindness and loving example, as well as the times he makes us laugh and laugh!!! Josh serves as a High Councilor in our Stake.

Angela is 35 years old, and graduated from Nursing School in May 2010. She still looks forward to her dream job in nursing. More importantly, she is so blessed to have her dream job at home being a mom to 2 great girls and a beautiful baby boy, and a wife to the nicest man in the world!!! She serves as a teacher in the Relief Society.

K'Lynn is 12 years old, and has recently had the fun experience of entering the YW program. She is a great student, works hard in school, loves to dance and sing, and is such a fun addition to our family!!!

Kandace is 8 years old, and had the great experience of becoming baptized a member of the church las summer. Kandace loves to read and is very good at it!!! She also goes to dance two days a week, and loves piano lessons. Kandace is always saying or doing something to make all of us laugh.

Our latest addiiton, Chaz, joined our family in April of 2011. He is a very loved baby with quite a few little mommies around him! He is a great sleeper, and already lets us feel of his special spirit by flashing big frequent toothless grins at us often. We feel so very blessed to have him in our little Keddington Family!!!

We hope to live in a way to bring others closer to our Savior, and to "Live simply, give more, and expect less"

Funny Things Our Kids Say

We were giving the baby Mylicon. Kandace mistook the drug name for another medication, and said to Chaz: "Do you want some Morphine"???
Kandace fell asleep really early the other night. When she woke up, it was morning, but she thought it was still the night time. I had the T.V. on a BYU devotional. When she saw it, she replied: "Do these people really meet for these talks this late at night?"
Josh asks Kandace "Do you want to go on a walk?" Kandace's response: "Walks are for dogs".
Kandace heard the word "Cheapskate" on T.V. When using it later on, she said, "You're a cheapsteak"!
"Girls can't join the army. They don't have any armour" C/O Kandace
