I'm Sweating, I Sweat, I'm a Sweater

It finally turned hot in O'Fallon. We have had the AC on for days but we never seem to get the temperature just right. With Vivian's hot and cold flashes, there is no way to make everyone happy. The chemo seems to have readjusted her thermostat.

We had such a great time this past week. The whole family got together for the Memorial Day weekend. Ryan and Andrea flew in from Utah and we went to a Cardinal's baseball game. I was able to get really good seats and the Cards won so what could be better? Nathan and Brooke drove in from Oklahoma City and announced that Brooke is expecting in December...that's what could be better. Ben and Shalon drove their car and we drove ours and we all piled in and went to Nauvoo. We went to several of the historical sites and then to the Sunset on the River performance. There was a Hawaiian family there that performed and then the missionaries. It was a great evening. On Sunday we went to church in Nauvoo and then to Carthage. There was a great spirit there and we had a lot of time to talk and be with one another.

Monday I helped the High Priest's put on our Memorial Day breakfast for both wards. We had a ton of food and even more rain. That just meant we had more time to visit with everyone. It was sad to see everyone go home on Tuesday morning.

Mom is doing well though she got some test results this week that concern us. We are not sure what it all means just yet. We are hoping it is nothing but we will let you all know as soon as we find something out one way or the other. For now, we are looking forward to being grandparents. Mom feels great and is starting to exercise more and more. You had all best start working out so you will be ready for race day next April. It would be sad to get beaten by a two time cancer baby on her 49th birthday.
