Liisa and Zack's wedding! We are in the final countdown and it sounds like she has everything under control. I am very excited to be headed to MN--it's been over a year now since I was last up there and I have missed it dreadfully!
I have had some amazing conversations on the phone with Reimond of late. Being away has been really good for him and I am so proud of the directions he is choosing to go. He is a really neat kid! Andrea and Justin got some really bad wasp stings last week after Justing ran through a ground wasp's nest (he didn't know it was there) on their way home from the beach. Liisa and Rei took them to the ER and Andrea was at Abbott while Liis took Justing and Alexis to Childrens. Andrea had 14+ stings and Justin had 9+ stings. Both ended up on prednisone and benadryl, but both are much better now. It was scary though (Alexis had one sting on her back and was fine). Rei ran as go-between from the two hospitals (across the street from each other and connected by an underground tunnel for those who are not familiar with it) and I am so relieved everything turned out well. Tony was in Kansas and called me to see if he should try to fly home; I told him not unless things took a bad turn (e.g. bad allergic reactions), but he will be headed home for this weekend. He blew out his knee doing PT and they had no clinic with an MRI available closer than 200 miles away, so he is needing to get that looked at when he gets home. There is no break, but he can hardly walk on it.
Brie got home from AT and Skye was happy to have her home. Skye is still being a bit of a challenge in putting things up her nose (yesterday she blew out a piece of what looked like scrunched up tape torn off something) and it bled and ran for hours before it finally was visible and could be removed by her mother. I suspected something was up there, but we couldn't *see* anything.
Patrick and his friends have had a series of misfortunate events in FL and currently he is staying at a parent's place of one of the girls. He does have a job, and has been good to be in communication with us. It's definitely been a learning experience for him!
Aurora continues to enjoy her summer vacation, and is glad Dan is back from Maine. He grandfather is now in a rehab home, and is stable. Eric's vacation begins tomorrow, and we are counting the hours! It will be so nice to have him home and be taking a trip together!
I am doing ok: excited tosee/be with my family soon, excited to be bringing the grandkids back with us, and thrilled for Liisa and Zack. I am a little on edge over the pending surgery but am also looking forward to it... And now I have to go get Skye, who is yelling "Helloooooooo" from her bed quite loudly and melodically! She is definitely awake!
