Where has the time gone?!?!

Ok, ok, ok. I just realized that the last time I wrote in here was the first part of June!! What on earth?! Sorry about that everyone. Yikes!

Let me think back to June. It was actually a very uneventful beginning and middle of the month. Things were pretty stressfull the end of the month waiting for dad's scan results. Then, on June 27th (also Rick's bday), we got the best results EVER!! Dad's scans showed no new growth and no active cancer cells. YEA!!!!!!! Talk about awesome, huh? Well, prior to that, my blood pressure was sky rocketing. I ended up taking a family medical leave and I was gone 2 full weeks and then worked 2 days/wk through the end of August and then came back fulltime as of 09 01 08.

In July, not much happened. For my bday we went to Rick's cabin and then went swimming at the Gaylord pool. That was the best ever! At night, we were all too tired for fireworks, so we actually watched them on TV. lol. Seriously, that was absolutely, positively perfect. We could relax and watch them all together. The end of July was the family reunion. Everyone from the Suedbeck's and Harbarth's came, but absolutely no one from the Kuphal side. No one from Gary's or Betty's even replied saying they couldn't make it! Jon and I both said that 2008 was our last year for the reunion. If people can't even appreciate all we do, then forget it.

August was great and we were preparing for School and going to lots and lots of pedal pulls. The kids just keep kicking *ss!! It's great and I love it. All 3 of them got trophies most of the time at each pull so I'm sure everyone was thinking, "Great, here's the Suedbeck kids. Now we don't have a chance." lol. At the Brownton pull, all 3 got 1st place! Everyone looked at us and we just walked away proud with 3 trophies in hand. It was the best. Jon and I had the pull again at Eggstravaganza this year. Mercedes and Lincoln got trophies, but Sierra missed 3rd place by inches! Ugh! Leighton Rose got 3rd place instead, so maybe that was ok. This was also the month that I had a scare about cervical cancer. I've been doctoring for awhile now, but Dr Johnson said I'm supposed to schedule another Colposcopy for January 2009 and we'll see where that takes us. August 22nd we got results again showing no new growth and no active cancer cells for dad! THAT IS AWESOME!!! We were absolutely ecstatic. 2 awesome results in a row!

The girls each have had their first days of school and they went fine. Really, nothing new to report with that.

Peace.
