CATCH UP!!

Hello fellow friends, family and bloggers!

Hope everyone is having a fantastic day on this gorgeous, warm afternoon! We have been super busy this past weekend and during the week!

Ryan and I traveled to Stigler last Saturday after I did the St. Francis Heart Walk in downtown Tulsa! We had a great turnout for St. Francis employees ( I think the most there)! It was fun to be with my team outside of work! My girlfriends and I dedicated our "walk" to a family member and mine of course was MOM! She has heart disease that is hereditary called Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, non-obstructive. This means her heart is thicker than normal and therefore can cause her to pass out or go into a funny heart rhythm, this is why she received a defibrillator! It is a precautionary tool to keep her safe!:) The non-obstructive part means there is nothing obstructing her blood flow from the main artery (aorta) to the rest of her body! (which is a GREAT thing) Just thought everyone might want to know since this is what I do everyday! :) Deal with hearts! :) The walk was great! Below is a picture of some of the girls I work with! Ai, me, Krista, and Jen!

Ryan and I left after the walk and got to Stigler around noon or so... We got straight to work....loading rock, hauling rock, unloading rock.....we plan to use all this rock to build mom an outdoor area/fireplace that she can enjoy in the evenings, or whenever! She is super excited to get started! :) And of course we fished, a lot! It was a very peaceful, non-stressful couple of days at home! Below: Claire "hunting" Easter eggs at the Stigler Vo-tech. She was hilarious!

Mom is doing soooo incredible people! I CAN NOT begin to tell everyone how well she is doing! It's unbelievable, she is staying at home by herself, ironing, washing clothes, doing dishes, vacuuming, etc....I mean unreal! Her mood is STILL (after everything she has been through emotionally, mentally, physically, spiritually) sooooo positive, she uplifts me and gives me strength even! GOD IS MIRACULOUS! You all are amazing! It's all because of prayers and positive attitude through this whole part of mom's life that is healing her! Please, please keep it up! She is sooo PUMPED that she only has 6 more treatments after today! Can you believe it! I mean she is almost finished and can't wait to get back to her normal routine of shopping and staying with us in Tulsa!! GOD REIGNS!!! We are so blessed as a family to have God in our lives and all of you who are reading and praying for mom! We love you all and hope you live well and laugh often! Have a blessed day!

Love forever,
