May Letter

Dear Family & Friends,

Hello.  This month we celebrated Mother's Day and I had such fun with my mom and my brothers and my dad.  We had a big breakfast for mom.  And in church we sang Mother's Day songs in sacrament meeting.


My season of football ended this month.  I had my best friend Alek on my team.  I had a great time!! I liked my coach and what he taught me.  I got two picks, one was a pick 6!  I want to play flag football again next season.  I had a great season, we had an ultimate flag puller, my friend Max!


Over Memorial weekend we went to Antelope Island.  We were going to go to the cabin but it was too cold and rainy so we decided to go to Antelope Island.  We got to see this really big beach and we got to see buffalos.  And antelope, of course.  I had a really fun time.  Me and Eric climbed together on a mountain.  We were as high as the clouds!!  And we got to see the Great Salt Lake.  There were millions of salt in that.


After we went to Antelope Island we went to the Aerospace Museum.  We got to see planes outside and there was an inside.  It was really big!  We found this cool rocket on the other side of the street.  One of the things I liked was the Jolley Roger.  We also saw some helicopters.  They looked really cool.  


Last week I got a strep throat.  I got a little infection in the back of my neck where I couldn't move my neck.  I had to stay in the hospital to get rid of the infection.  I got my blood drawn two times.  They had to check how much times I peed because they had to see that I was drinking enough water to make sure I wasn't getting dehydrated.  And I got a bed that can move up and down.  It can move my head back and up and it can move my legs up and down.  And I got a table that can move around.  And there was a cafeteria that would make food and bring it up to me.  My mom stayed with me.  And my grandma and dad came to see me.  I had to get a needle stuck into me so they could put the medicine into me.  I got home a day early because the medicine was working and everything was working.  I got to get a few prizes, the game Sorry, the three Ninja Pigs book and I got a word search book.  They had tons of movies that we could pick from.  And they played the movies on an Xbox.  I watched Shrek the Third since we don't have that one.  I am feeling good now.  I think the medicine is working.  The medicine is antibiotics.  On Monday I am going back to school and I am glad to have fresh air and not hospital air.  I am glad to get to see all my friends and family.  I am glad that I am feeling better.  I am having a really good time playing with my friends and playing games.  


I hope you don't get any strep throat or an infection.  Goodbye.

Love Kyle Patrick Barnhisel
