Mile stones



Tomorrow will be 10 long weeks with Serina being out of commission. Picture at the left is Serina before she had her surgery the position of her legs was permanently crossed. Sept 4 she had surgery in hopes of some pain relief and improve her seating and mobility. The Dr.'s worked her over and put her in a bright pink cast with stars that glow in the dark.



Over 7 weeks in the cast. We tried to get her out and about some and she loved it. We took her to Dusty's football games twice. Still she was a trooper...me waking her up every 2 hours to rotate her in the bed...all the caregivers who came to work with her. She never complained


Oct. 22 we took her to have the cast removed...we were so excited. Well it was not that exciting at all. She could not stand to be out of the cast and her legs felt so different. She has been out of the cast a little over 2 weeks and finally yesterday we were able to get her up and in a chair without causing her too much pain or grief.
Ya...what a milestone.

I love my new camera


My parents are the best....the new camera they got me is so cool.

Kassie wanted me to try to get some photos of her for her Sr. pictures.

We were kinda bummed because most of the leaves are gone now but we managed to find a few cool places to take photos.

How about behind our local Safeway store....



Or at the hospital....


Or in someones back yard....

The girls really got a kick out of finding places to shoot photos.

We really got some good ones and we want to go take more when the snow hits. I sure enjoyed the day with Kassie and her friend Brandi they were so much fun.
