Updates

I am VERY VERY behind on here and I didn't even realize it until I am suddenly having people ask me why this thing is not up to date..... ummm I really didn't think anyone would notice... OOOPPPPS! So here goes:

  • MY BACK - The MRI showed that the tumor had not grown since the last one 4 months earlier. THAT IS GREAT NEWS! And in that 4 months I had had the Cyber Knife so actually it had shrunk .02 millimeters (EVEN BETTER) but there are 25 millimeters in an inch so this was really not a measurable shrink, but hey it didn't' grow so the back is in good shape.... for now! Now the bad news - - so I asked the doc why my right arm has been hurting, ummm there is now a tumor on my neck (actually 2) they have been there for over a year and I really can't figure out why in a year and a half and 4 doctors I was never told... but, I was never aware of the neck tumors. SO, I have already have another MRI and the appointment with my "main" Dr is on July 10th so we will just have to wait and see???
  • LAST WEEKEND - So So much fun! Carson came to visit Wednesday night and we did get off to a slow start, but in the end the kids had a BALL! We played in the water, made homemade ice cream, ate Popsicles, went to Jungle Java and played... we were worn out!
  • MY CAR - In the midst of Carson's visit.... it died .... we changed the battery and the alternator and it then still needed more work, to make a long story short, it was going to cost more to fix it than it was worth! So yesterday I got a BRAND NEW car (I'm in love!) I got at 2009 Silver Murano, it has tan leather seats and complete with sunroof!
  • SCHOOL - still chugging! I am at the tail end of this term and only have a few weeks left until these classes are over, and I can honestly say I WILL NOT miss this statistics class!
  • VACATION - John and I leave Wednesday morning at 5:30 .... to ..... Key Largo! I am so excited! (We are already 90% packed) Our flight lands at Miami and then we will have a rental car for the 45 min drive to Key Largo! We will land back in Austin on Saturday at 10:30. Chayse will be at her Nana and Papas house AKA "the ranch."

Now if we can just make it through the 2 day work week, we are off!


Chayse and Carson ready for the pool!

Best buds having ice cream!

My new car!

Ok I will do my very best to do better! (PROMISE) and I will get out a few of our bedtime/prayers stories (they are hilarious) and hopefully pics of our trip!
