Lots of catch-up......
Tanner received the Aaronic Priesthood today and he will now be able to pass the sacrament at church. He is getting so mature and big. We are so proud of him for what a great young man, brother, son, and boy he is. It was hard to see him look so grown up in his suit.




Our sweet Eva is loving having some Mom time when Grace goes to school. Although most of you know she is painfully shy in public she is such a ham at home.



We are on countdown for the end of Chemo and the end of most home meds. To keep an eye on the prize and to get some feelings out, Kim came up with the great idea of having everyone write down some feelings about Leukemia, cancer, chemo, and our lives right now, she then made a paper chain and everyday we tear one link off and count down until the end of Chemo.
First day of school!

Camp Harlow! Candlelighter's is a great organization for children with cancer that sponsor's events such as Camp Harlow. We spent 3 days in a cabin swimming, horseback riding, miniature golfing, riding bumper boats, horses, and go-karts, playing night games, singing by the campfire, and sleeping in sleeping bags. The kids had an amazing time and were able to meet kids their age who knew what it is like to live with a sibling with cancer, or to go through Leukemia treatments. We are always amazed at the strength and charity of these organizations.

Congratulations to Tanner for being able to pass the sacrament--I bet you cannot wait to watch him in church. Very handsome young man and I cannot believe he is old enough to do that--where does the time go? Great pictures of Eva and the camp, it must be so fun for the children and their siblings to get away and engage in all of those amaazing activities together as families. Very creative thinking with the chain so everyone can express their feelings--sometimes it is just too hard to keep things in your heart for long periods of time. We love you all very much and baby Ben is so thin--please feed that kid. Again, beautiful pictures of the family, keep taking them.
