Sept 8, School is in session

First week of school is in the book.  Pictures are taken and the schedule has started.

On Friday, Sierra and Stacy made a quick trip to Calif for IVIG. They took an Angel Flight on Friday morning, had clinic with Nancy that afternoon, and started the IV at around 9:00 pm. Finished the IV around 10 on Saturday. Then caught a flight back at noon. Thank you Angel Flight!  Sierra is doing well, but her weight is a little down, (grrr). Stacy and I think it is still affects from the prior rejection and increased meds (hopefully). Like I have said in months past, that little demon just sits there on my shoulder.  I ignore him for the most part, but he is always there.  It doesn't take much for him to start whispering in my ear. But for now, we are good.

The Butterfields from Enterprise came over for Sunday dinner. Very nice family. They are wanting to do a school project involving our family and organ donation. Hope we can help.
 

Uncle Josh, Tara, and the boys were here for part of the weekend. Fun to have them here.

Yah, that's Lindsey catching some big air with the help of Uncle Josh.

We had a BBQ Sunday afternoon with all the cousin here. Last we counted we had around 25 kids on or around the trampolines. We played a few night games and it was crazy.

1st Day of school. There was excitement in the air.

Megan is right where she wants to be.

The Calif coaches did a great job preparing her. Thanks Kevin.

Megan went on a 8 point serving streak. Fun to watch.

Hunter with some of his favorite cousins, Landen, and Ryan.

Still doing great.  She has had to deal with a few comments from school about her cheeks. She really wants them to go away. We helped her with how to cope with little kid comments. If it was me, it would be a back hand!  But she is doing good. Swelling not gone yet, but is going down.  We were comparing her cheeks to late May and it seems to be tailing off.  Her next biopsy isn't until November.  The debate is on, awake or asleep?

She is growing up way to fast!
