Wow! It has been a whole year since I was diagnosed with a tumor! So much has happened since then: shot my turkey, started my first job, got my tumor out, attempted to become an author (long shot I knowJ), became a Mia Maid, went to Lagoon, Disneyland, and Universal Studios (all for the first time), and got the cutest most energetic puppy. This tumor has impacted my life so much I would never be the same person without it. At first I didn’t believe that that could actually happen to me, but it has helped me grow so much. I wouldn’t take back my experiences that happened because of it ever, well maybe the stink of the hospitals and MRIs. I am enjoying ever moment of life and can’t wait to be in high school next year.
McKenna has been an awesome supportive cast member in the high school play of Grease. She is one of 4 middle school students participating this year in the play. Way to go guys! I am always impressed with what a great job these kids do each year with the play. It always turns out awesome!
The kids and I recently spent the afternooon at Mossy Cave. We didn't take the cave trail this time, we just went to the creek and the kids had fun wading a little bit. The water is still really cold but we couldn't help but take advantage of the warming weather!
Each year the city hosts an easter egg hunt at the park for the grade school kids. It's basically a free for all, no limit, eggs filled with money and candy all on the ground. This year McKenna helped set up for the hunt. Kimber and Addison loaded up with enough goods pass around with the rest of us!
All in all we had a great weekend even though it was split between the boys and the girls! Garrett never did get his turkey. He spent the week after easter out as much as he could, even going out with a neighbor while Jeff had to work. Better luck next time Garrett!
Pink cake, pink frosting, pink candles, pink animal crackers - hmmm - wonder what Addison's favorite color is?
Dad's girl. He starts 'em young. She is now an official scouter for wildlife!
