More Catching Up...

In July we met Rylie for a trip through the Aquarium in Denver.

They are so cute together.  We sure wish we lived closer!

"Dinging on the wano" (singing on the piano) with Cousin Kylie at Aunt Lettie's house.

Painting Mama-Great's birthday present in August.  And she got something besides a Torie, too!

At Tom's family Ranch in Arizona over Labor Day.  Torie got to meet so many members of this family.  Finally!

Torie and Uncle Eddy and Papa Tom...she loved it!

Cooper having S'more's.

And Torie joining him!

In Mesa for birthdays...Chase on September 7, Lexie on the 8th, and Makinley on the 27th.  And Brielle and Ryker, too!

Our last day at the Ranch...we can't wait to go back and see "Mo' Dousins!"

Torie the Monkey with her cute little banana!

And biggest news...Torie's Make-A-Wish is almost here!  We are going to DisneyWorld December 3rd.  Lots more to follow.  I promise!

T+655 and the Worst Blogger in the World is...


...Torie's Mama-Cheryl!  I can't believe it has really been so long since I updated this.  (This is the part where I make a bunch of excuses.)  With Torie doing SOOO great, and her new "Baby Butter", things don't seem to slow down much.  I'm back at work, Mom watches the kids most of the time, Lexie is still at Pantuso's, and we just finished a major remodel of our house.  And now the holidays are approaching....so this might be my last post for a while!  Just kidding.  Maybe.  I'm one of those people who procrastinate forever.  Then when it needs to be done there is so much to catch up on that it's overwhelming.  Like 5 months of happenings.  Jeez.  I think I'm going to have to do this update in several parts, so hopefully some of this makes sense.  This video is from July when Tom and Torie and I went to the Cabin in Wyoming.  This is up on top of the Snowy Range.  Guess why they call it that?  Yep.  July.  None of us had been to the Cabin for 2 years...since right before Torie was diagnosed with Hurler's.  It's one of our very favorite places!
