Another Year, Another Adventure

It's been a busy 2011 so far between the trips to Salt Lake City for Travis' clinical drug trial and our move to Salt Lake City.  Scott got a promotion/directed transfer to be the Meterologist in Charge of the Salt Lake City Center Weather Service Unit, part of the National Weather Service.  Scott reported to his new job in early May with Kelly and the boys joining him in early June, after school was out.  The older boys enjoyed some final end of year trips and time with their friends before the move.  They also played some baseball before the move, even squeezing some final games in on the Saturday we headed to Salt Lake City.

Nolan and Barrett were able to play in a summer 3 on 3 hockey league in Salt Lake City.  They played fast-paced hockey games every week over the past 6 weeks.  Unfortunately, Travis fractured his left femur about a week after we moved into our house, he stepped off the next to last step thinking he was on the bottom.  :(  His fracture is healing, but he will be spending 7 weeks this summer in a cast from his knee down.  Some good news, Travis' clinical drug trial has slowed down the growth of his plexiform/nerve tumor from 33% in 6 months to growing right along with him.  Thank you God!  More details about Travis' NF journey can be found at tsnfjourney.blogspot.com .

We found a church home already in Salt Lake City (Christ United Methodist Church) and the boys (and Kelly) had fun with Pandamania VBS this past week.  Travis loves singing the songs and should be heard Sunday morning when the kids sing for the congregation. 

May each of you be enjoying a great 2011.
