Best Week Yet

Happy Memorial Day. We just finished our best week yet. Ken is feeling and looking great. For those of you that don't get to see him much, trust me. Ken is doing great. He worked every day this week. He was pretty tired when he got home and took a nap every afternoon, but who doesn't want a nap every afternoon? There were many people at work that made a point to tell me how good Ken looks and how well his attitude is and they are right. He has gained some weight and he has accepted his bald head (which I really like). He is doing some yard work this weekend, which he loves. He still has to be careful because of the 5 lb weight limit, but all in all, he is great.

The picture is Ken and our granddaughter, Norah. I think she is saying, "Grandpa, I have more hair than you!". Isn't she a doll? We went to her baptism 2 weeks ago and it was so fun to see her. Below is a picture of our whole family, together. It is always a miracle when we can get them all in one place.

I know the picture is small, but I can't figure out how to make it bigger on this page. So if you are family and you want this pic, I think you can right click and save it to your computer. Then you can see it better. For those of you that don't know all our beautiful children, they are from the left:

Bev's daughter Stephanie, she lives in Windsor; Ken's middle daughter Anna from New York City; Ken's youngest daughter Tessa from Steamboat Springs; Ken's oldest daughter Katy from Chicago; her daughter and our joyous granddaughter, Norah Grace; our son-in-law, Mark; Bev and Ken, happy grandparents; and our daughter-in-law, Sara who lives in Golden with Bev's son Jeff. And just a side note, thanks to my friend Carol Ann that helped me, we made Norah's baptism dress. It is made from the shawl from Katy's wedding dress. I beaded the baptism dress with the same beads that I beaded Katy's wedding dress 4 years ago.

So back to blog business, Ken has the 3rd round of RChop chemo on Tuesday. I'm actually going to brave it and let him go alone. I hear the center is really booked, so they will be very busy. I should go to help out, but he says he can manage. I want to save my time off work for doctors appointments and in case he gets sick and needs me at home. This will be the half way chemo. Three down and three to go. Keep praying for Ken's strength and his ability to stay away from harmful germs. He feels your prayers and is basking in your support.
