Positive Thoughts please!

My cousin Keri's 13 year old son, Dylan, has been in a coma since last week, after a bout with the flu that led to Diabetic KetoAcidosis (DKA). This is a link to a nice website they have set up for him: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/dylanskay

I appreciate all thoughts, strength, prayers, anything to help Dylan and his mom and dad. This is a very scary and emotional time for the whole family and we are all hopeful for good news soon!

AZ Sonoran Desert Museum



Kirsten and I took the boys and their cousin, Lucy, to the Desert Museum today. It was a little chilly and windy, but once the sun came out it was a very nice day. The kids loved it and we definitely plan on visiting again soon. We saw javelina, a raptor bird show, lots of snakes, scorpions, big horned sheep, hummingbirds, and much more. The Sonoran Desert is a beautiful place, if you know where to look!

Sick Day for Potter


Harrison missed his last day of school before winter break due to a high fever. The Tylenol kicked in for an hour or so and he had the energy to play "swords" outside. What a cutie! Poor guy ended up having a fever for 5 days this time, yuck. Doctor thought maybe virus, maybe swine flu... but thankfully he is better today.
