Shan's personal note...

Just a note to say I am so excited about two things:
1. MY MOM IS WALKING WITH OUT HER WALKER!! After about 8 weeks of her being in A LOT of pain, she is doing so much better. WAY TO GO MOM!!
2. My Dad is coming down for a visit....I get to see him about twice a year and it is just not enough. The boys are so excited to see PAPA and ask everyday....when is Papa coming?? I can't wait to spend some time with my great Dad.

Nick's R/C Car

Nick is so excited to have a REAL R/C car. He earned it by making his bed everyday (without having to ask)and not complaining about going to school or doing his homework. He is such a grown up little man. We are so proud of him.

Dinner with friends

We had a great BBQ with our friends Marty, Kathie, Jamison, Alli, Chris and all our boys. Rob and Marty thought it would be a good idea to start the car in the middle of the night:)....luckily no cops were around.

So Sweet when they sleep...

Need I say more???

Pumpkin Patch

We took the boys to our yearly trip to the pumpkin patch. We love Bauman Farms - each year they add new stuff. This year was a pirate ship made out of hay bales. The boys had a great time and we had GREAT weather...you never know this time of year what you are going to get. We got sunny and 70 degrees.

Rob's Medical Study

Rob was very lucky and got into a medical study for his psoriasis and his arthritis. He got his first injection on 8-21, his skin looks SO MUCH BETTER and his arthritis is SO MUCH BETTER also. We feel very lucky, this is a 4 1/2 year study and over 100K worth of drugs....YIPPEE

Here is a picture of his knees before and a picture I took today!!

My Cousin Patrick's Wedding in Bend

We went to Bend for the weekend for my cousin's wedding and see our friends Ty and Jamie...they ended up having a family emergency and had to leave town...Bummer, we missed seeing them. We had a great time at the pool, the weather was great...HOT HOT HOT.
