Maddie wins SBO at Skyline!

Maddie is the new Publicity Chair for Skyline High next year! We are so proud of her for putting herself out there and trying something new. Chase served on Publicity two years ago so it's a nice precedent he set. Maddie will be producing all the assembly videos with the help of 3 other Publicity members. I can't believe it's her Senior Year coming up! Thanks to Chase for helping her attain this great accomplishment and special thanks to her cousin Matthew for starring in her tryout video. I'd love to show it on here if I can...

It's Been A Year...

Well, it's been a year since the diagnosis. I'm glad to say Craig is still doing amazingly well and even hiked Millcreek canyon again just like we did last year. Here he is with Scout and Ruby. For fun I've inserted a video of Scout with his friend Bruce and the ball. This is a never-ending routine these two love to play. Craig doesn't really want to commemorate the anniversary as it isn't really anything to celebrate but I think it is because last year at this time we didn't know where we'd be right now. I'm just glad to say we're all still here and we're doing the things we love to do.

Craig and Dr. Jones

On April 6 we had a visit with Dr. Jones. She was amazed at how well Craig is doing. His liver function is perfect. His weight is good and healthy. He really is doing much better than we ever thought he would at this point. She wants him to do a scan in May but other than that she feels he's good to wait until hopefully this fall when he'd be willing to try another round of chemo. We still are waiting to hear on the chemo pill, Sutent, but so far insurance hasn't totally turned us down. Our intervention radiologist, Dr. Carlisle, has left Huntsman so we really don't have a doctor to use for chemo at the moment anyway. We feel really lucky to have Craig in such good health right now. Thanks for everyone's prayers and good vibes.

Spring Break in St. George

We went to St. George for spring break with 3 teenage girls, Maddie, Shelby and Emilie. We had a great time but wished the weather was a little warmer. Here we are at Olive Garden for Easter dinner! Chase was in Zions with Andrea and Jenn for a UofU class "biking through Zions". They had a fun time for 12 hours in the broken down Suburban on the freeway on the way down. Somehow it worked out and they got to their ride and we got to drive the Suburban home after a new fuel pump in Kanosh on Monday.
