Cheer-Leading

This week has gone bye quickly. Tiffany had cheer-leading practice tonight. The Franklin High School had a fundraiser for the elementary kids to join them at the next home game to cheer during the basketball game. Tiffany had a blast tonight. She will be doing her cheer tomorrow night at the boys varsity game. I will try to have pictures. I took pictures tonight only the pictures turned out to dark to post.
At practice tonight they even had mascot practice for the younger kids. It was so funny. They have a part in the cheer tomorrow as well. There is 5 of them I think and they all have a different mascot uniforms they are wearing.

Tiffany Lost Another Tooth!

Tiffany lost another tooth!! She was upstairs watching t.v. Down she came with another tooth. I was quit surprised to say the least. Her two adult teeth are already poking through.
It was hard getting this picture. Tiffany did not want to hold still and Tegan was getting into the guitars. It's been crazy around here. Mostly due to Tegan, he is feeling better so he is now making up for all that time he was sick. :) He is feeling so much better. Praise God!
Tristan and Tiffany are doing well in school. They have made some great friends. I am so proud of them!

Dinner

I should have taken pictures at the chef's house. It was a lot of fun. We had a fancy salad with pears and dried cranberries. Now if I made that it would taste horrible. Since I wasn't making it it tasted wonderful!
The main coarse was Shepard's pie. It was very good. Again I could not make it this fancy at all. So it was a true treat. She then sent us home with a full 9x13 Shepard's pie, it's in the freezer. She had also made us 2 batches of home made spaghetti sauce and noodles. We ate one of the batches of noodles the next night. It was very yummy too. It had homemade meatballs in it.
She is actually a personal chef. She has her own business you can check out her web site here whats4dinner . She is tempting us to become a client.:)

Winter Day

We are enjoying being snowed in today. We have a foot of snow here. No school today too. So we have enjoyed making forts and sledding behind our house on some really neat hills. They are just the right size for our kids. Tegan has loved sledding down them as well.

It's really cold so we stay out short times and then go back out again after we have dethawed.:) I've been through one can of hot chocolate as well. Tonight we are going to eat at our neighbors house. I'm really looking forward to it. She is a chef.:)

A Special Visit

Uncle Ryan, Aunt Tricia and kaden are visiting. They are here in Indiana to help take care of Trista. I will have more on Trista at a later time when the family knows more. Please contiunue to pray for her!
Aunt Tricia is not feeling well so she could not make the meeting place. We decieded to meet half way so they did not have to drive so far. By the way Tricia and Ryan have a new baby girl on the way check out her blog! We missed seeing you Tricia!
So this afternoon we got to see Uncle Ryan, Kaden and Grandpa Oren. Thanks for taking time out of your busy schedules to see us!

Tiffany Lost Her First Tooth

She lost her tooth as she walking out of school to the car. Thank goodness she did not panic! She had it in her hand and was excited! I asked her if she had wiggled it or moved it and she said no it just fell out. I wish all my teeth had come out that easy.
She wanted to first call Aunt Tammy and Shelby. Not sure what state you guys are in. I told her I would put it on the blog so that Tammy and Shelby would know about it that way. So, hope you are browsing the net and see this.:)

Update On Trista

Here is some news on Trista. This is an e-mail I recieved from Carolyn, Trista's grandma.
The tumor was removed intact and did not rupture. This type of tumor is rare at any age. They do not know exactly what type of tumor it is and it is being sent to different research universities to try to determine what type of tumor it is. They did take some lymph nodes to be tested.
A pediatric oncologist will see Trista tomorrow. He will determine the best type of treatment to be given. We are looking at chemotherapy and/or radiation. Trista will be at St. Vincent's until Thursday or Friday.
Once again thank you for your thoughts, prayers and encouragement.
