A Big Month

July was filled with Big Events....

1. Isaac being an amazing helper to Dad. Dad can't crawl under the house in some parts because there isn't enough space. We had a leaky pipe and Isaac quickly volunteered to be "the guy" to fix the pipe! Amazing! No fear! Awesome!

2. Scoutastic - Isaac and Noah and I attended a three day Cub-Scouting event. Scoutastic ran from 1pm-4pm from July 20-22. Both boys knocked out a bunch of their Scouting requirements! I loved designing the program and working with her friend Robynn to see this thing through!

3. Griff headed out with the Scouts to the Trinity Alps for a three day, 31 mile hiking trip. It was really really difficult but Griff rocked it!

4. Griff, Isaac and Noah spent 5 days at my Dad's home with Papa and Gramy Twitchell. They had some great quality time with the Grandparents.

5. Bryan took me to L.A. for 5 days of relaxing for my birthday. Bry actually worked but bought me a three day unlimited pass to Fusion Yoga in the Hotel Spa. I love love loved it! Poolside reading, yoga, great food and great company. We ate at some of the most amazing restaurants! Thanks to my lovey hubby for creating a great week for me!

6. Griff took off for his first Scout Camp at Wente (near Willits, CA). He is gone for an entire week! Wowza!!

7. The exterior of our home is completely finished and painted!! Yay!

8. We have had a big harvest from our yard this summer! Rhubarb, strawberries, nectarines, peaches, plums, currents, apricots, zucchini, squash and the concord grapes on coming on strong for late August!

BUT OUR BIGGEST NEWS
IS THAT ON 7/28/10
NOAH HAD HIS
1 YEAR SEIZURE FREE ANNIVERSARY!!!

Thank you everybody for your prayers, support and love over the past 7 years! We love you! We are so grateful for this past year of respite and for God's - Guiding hand over every heart rending decision, every stay in the hospital and each step in our day! For preserving our older boys' childhoods although they handled situations with maturity well beyond their years. For helping Bryan and I to draw closer during the stressful and awful experiences that come with epilepsy. Most of all - for preserving Noah's life, his brain, his personality and his amazing Spirit. He has no guile, no meanness but rather he is the perfect example of a person with unconditional love for everyone around him. His ability to love everyone without bounds is an unexpected blessings to all of us.
