Cookout/Welcome Home/Birthday Get Together!

Well, on Sunday we went up the street to my Brothers house to have a Cookout/Welcome Home/Birthday Get Together..... For Max and Me Homecoming and Mckayla's Birthday and My Birthday!! We like to Party alot!! hahaha Really we just had some Hamburgers and Salads and then we played alot with the kids, Max especially liked their cat! And Max jumped on the Trampoline!! I have not jumped on the Trampoline for a long long time!! It was fun! I always have a lot of fun when I am with my neices and nephews. They keep us going!!

Then after we ate we have Cupcakes for Dessert! With Pink Icing and Sprinkles.... That was our Birthday Cupcakes! My Brother put Candles in them, like 12 for McKayla and ALOT for me in the Cupcake! Well, the wind was blowing and I couldn't keep my Candles lit! So I ended up blowing 2 out! LOL I was funny!! From now on... If they put Candles on my Birthday Cakes/Cupcakes....theywill put 7 -- Thats our LUCKY number! Max was orn on Sept 7, and so it always have been a good/lucky number for us!

We are having a lot of fun here, we just got back from a walk aroung about 5 blocks down around the Temple. It's so peaceful and quiet here! I love it here! I am missing home, I am missing the Dog and my Cat and My Crabbys... ohh yeah and my Husband!! Sweet! But this week is the Sanpete County Fair and I can't wait to take Max down there, and see how he does. It will be fun for him!

I told my mom that living here in Utah is much cheaper than living inTennessee!! A Gallon on Milk here is $1.89 compared to $3.89 back home in Tennessee. I don't know what it is, but I like it. Diapers are another thing we saved on.... I told my mom she needs to start using Coupons!!

OK, I better go play with my family!!

Until next time...

Home Sweet Home... Manti!!

Ohh how I love coming back to Utah! It's so much fun! I wish for my little boy to be able to keep comingb back here for "Summer Visits" with my Parents! It's so peaceful here.... I love the people here, because they have know me all my life. I went to a Friends Wedding Open-house last night, and I have not seen so MANY people I forgot I knew.... LOL
I even seen a old high school teacher there... it brings back memories, I seen so many of my high school friends there, it was like a big Party/Get together thingy. It was fun!
But I think today we are goin to go to my Brothers house and Celebrate his daughters 12th birthday!! She turned 12 Aug 22nd, and so we weren't here then, we will do it today! I got to see my Aunt Michelle yesterday and my sweet little Neice Keyera! She came up to me and gave me a BIG hug and then she said that "Max got big!" And yes he has grown since we were here last! I'm glad of that, and I am hoping Max does good with the Boys this time and isn't so scared of them, I don't think he will be. I got in the shower and out and my mom said the Max didn't even call my name while I was in the shower, last time I was here he cried and cried when I got in the shower! So I guess he isn't so shy this time, and plus we can play outside this time because it is warmer!! Last time it was SNOWING!! :)

SO I guess I will blog later and let yall know what we did today!!

This and Thats..... :)

Well ok, so here I am trying to blog.... So this week has been great! On Saturday Max and Me will fly to Utah for 18 days to visit Family Members and Celebrate our Birthdays (Mine is Aug 27, and Max's is Sept 7th). We have had a few doctors appointments this week, well Max had Feeding Therapy on Mondays at Noon, and then he had his regular 3 month check-up with Dr. John Frank Kuttesch of Vanderbilt, (Max's Oncology Specialist) He's so Cool!! We love him and we will always have him close to us, he DID save my little boys life!

But we did get the MRI results back and it shows NOTHING has returned!! How SWEET is that?!?! So Max is scheduled for another MRI in November and a follow-up with Dr. Kuttesch then, and then of course Max will go have 6 month MRI's then 12 month MRI's for 3 years, when then he is redeemed CANCER-FREE!!!! Yayy! Praise GOD! Sweet!!

So like I said we are getting packed for Utah, I have already got Max's Suitcase packed now I just have to pack mine! I will do that tomarrow - hopefully!! So I'm new to this Blogging thing and I think I might like it almost as Facebook!! LOL So I hope everyone enjoys this... also I am posting a link to Max's Webpage on Caring Bridge..... you can go and read what I post about when he did have Cancer and what went on during that time.... it seems like it was so long ago!! Anyway--- his webpage is...

New To Blogspot!!

So, um ok. I don't know much about this and I'll try to update yall as much as I can, I hardly get on the computer these days, My little Max keeps me busy all day long. So sometimes I have to log online on my cell phone, and it isn't the same as on my laptop! Thats for sure. Anyway, ohh and No I have dial-up and I can't post pictures very often, you might get a picture now and then one in 3 months... bear with me on that. We live out in the Sticks!!
