Road Trip

This past weekend we decided to take a little road trip down to Salt Lake City. My sister and her family came up to Idaho Falls on Saturday for my sister-in-law's baby shower. Then we all turned around and headed south! They were just heading home, but we were going down to support Mike's sister, Cindy. Our niece, Teddy Jo, was admitted to Primary Childrens Hospital last Wednesday. She had a tumor on her adrenal gland that had to be removed. Once the doctor got in there, he found out it was wrapped around one of her kidneys. Her parents were faced with the decision of removing the kidney as well. They decided to go ahead and remove the kidney and also to biopsy one of her lymph nodes.
They planned on keeping Teddy there for about a week, but she was doing so well they let her go home this morning.
She is so stinkin cute and we just love her to death! I'm so glad we got to go down and see them while they were a little closer than usual! I can't even imagine what they are going through, but I want them all to know how much we love them and that we are praying for them every day.

We also had fun while we were Angie's. Or at least Mike did......he really knows how to get in touch with his younger half....
It was so good to see everyone this weekend, but it's always nice to come home. Mike looks excited in this picture doesn't he?
