What a Weekend!

This past weekend David, Bayley, Braxton, Emma and I traveled to Illinois to attend my neice Alissa's wedding. Emma was the Flower Girl with cousin, Ryan, the Ring Bearer. Bayley passed out programs and the others of us just enjoyed the whole thing. With an outdoor reception planned, there was the good chance for rain. But none really came and the day turned out to be beautiful and sunny. Alissa and Peter carried the whole day off with grace and generosity, making time for all of their guests and endless photos. Emma was in love with the princess looking bride and hung on Alissa's every move. I have several pics of Emma wherever Alissa went. :)
Our family stayed in a hotel with my mom and got to spend some visiting time with her after the wedding day had ended. The day was over by 4 since the wedding started at 10:30. Our drive home was uneventful and, after picking up Zoe from a friend's home, we have just been hanging out. Zoe was at church camp all of last week and did not come with us to the wedding. She was missed and asked about.
Braxton, Brad and I met with the Oncology docs, this morning, to go over plans for the next year. Braxton is doing very well and his scans look great. He will have his port removed at the end of July and can begin getting his stamina and strength back. YEAH!!!
Please keep Braxton in your prayers as he gets back to being a normal kid.
