A Nice Visit to Memphis

Sunday, July 12

Conner and I had the opportunity to go to Memphis this week to visit the Hanson's. Even though Elijah had a fever and was diagnosed with strep, it couldn't stop us from taking the trek down south. We are so glad we did too!

The family returned home on Tuesday night really late from their 3 week vacation so they were still on California time. Tyler looked great and looked very healthy with his tan and very dark hair. They had a great vacation and we enjoyed looking at all of their pictures. I especially liked the pictures taken at Disneyland. Uncle Aaron bought them 3 day passes and they had a blast riding all of the rides, even Tyler. Sarah said she gave in while they were visiting the Sasse's in Arizona and let Tyler go swimming. The first time in over a year. That was really fun!

While we were there, Conner and Tyler enjoyed hanging out, playing video games and playing games. We did take a visit to the Puppy Corral to see all of the adorable puppies. We wanted to buy one but thought we better not make an impulsive buy we may regret later. We also had fun eating at Sticks, a Japanese hibachi style restaurant. The blazing fire disturbed Christian so Charles had to hide his eyes. We returned home late Saturday night. We were sad to leave. We are hoping that they will be coming to Louisville soon.

Monday morning Tyler will go to the hospital to get a pet scan to determine if the cancer has spread any where else in his body. We need to pray for complete healing and that the cancer has been removed from his body. He was taken off of antibiotics this week, so he needs prayer that his leg will continue to heal properly without any infections. If he were to get an infection in his leg, he will need 2 surgeries to replace the metal rod in his leg. Another prayer request! The doctors said that he should be safe after about 10 days of being off the antibiotics.

I know we need to ask God for his miracles to be revealed and not hope that they will be. So earnestly ask God for a miracle for Tyler. He cares and loves us so and I know he loves Tyler!

Stay close, Kim
