We went to waimai canyon today to check out the kauai grand canyon. We had fun hangin with Jim and Tammy. We had a great day

Little Johnny is here

We caught Little Johnny wide awake and squirming. He is 9lbs 1 oz and has had some tough breaks already. He had some fluid in his lungs when he was born so they sent him to the NICU. That's why he is hooked up to lots of things. Then they found a problem with an artery to his heart. He is in Sunrise Children's Hospital now and is stable and healthy. The team of cardiac doctors are going to pow wow tomorrow night and decide when he will have surgery to fix his problem. Will keep everyone posted.

Hockey, Hockey, Hockey

RELAXING IN PISMO BEACH

We actually got to spend the weekend in Pismo Beach this last Friday, Saturday and Sunday. My sister Lori and her husband Bill went with us and Kelli. Lori and Kelli were in the shopping spirit and Kelli got hungry. Notice my colorful purple lip? This is what you get when you go up against an 18 volt power drill and it wins. See if I ever help set up the back stabilizers on the fifth wheel again. OUCH!!!!! We had a great time despite the color purple and made family memories for a lifetime.

Mommy Loves Kelli

Small Glimmers of Hope

Kelli has been through more than a 22 year old should ever have to go through. Tuesday night Kelli had a drug reaction to her nausea medicine. We thought she was having a stroke. Scared all three of us, but for 3 1/2 hours we were in a panic. Heavenly Father sent us an angel at 12:00 midnight when a doctor that does her rounds late at night knew exactly what was happening and all she needed was Benadryl. Within 15 seconds Kelli was back. I think Michael and I lost 10 years each in worry. She is doing much better. Last Monday we thought she was going to have to do surgery #3, but they decided to try a suction tube in her stomach, and that seemed to drain a lot of the fluid they were worried about. Today they removed the stomach drain. She is unhooked from all the many Iv's finally and after a 30 pound weight loss, she is within 24 to 48 hours of being sprung. Hopefully soon.......
