So he always needs a bath!

Brinlee's Spring Dance Recital

Arkie

The Time finally came for Andrew  to finish his program at Biolife University.  Our little family was super exited for a new adventure.  In February, he was able to start looking for a center to manage.  There were a few choices, Fayetteville Arkansas being one of them.  For whatever reason, we felt so strong about Arkansas.  We didn't know why, but we knew that was where we were suppose to be.  So we packed up our stuff and headed to the "Natural State"

Brinlee playing dress up with a garbage sack because all of her dress ups were packed!

Easter 2012

Rabbit Food:  You leave cookies for Santa right?  Same thing!  The Easter Bunny has to eat too!

 

It was Brinlee's idea.  So thoughtful of her!

Love Your Liver

I ran into some health issues in September. Of course, I ignored them. By early January things started to get pretty bad. I turned orange...  My skin was orange, the whites of my eyes were orange.   After lots of tests and several doctors later, I was diagnosed with Autoimmune Liver Disease. This just means that my immune system is now attacking my liver. My immune system turning on me and attacking things it shouldn't is not new to me. This is just one more thing to add to my Immune abnormality collection! Once again, this experience softened my heart and taught me how amazing it is to feel healthy, and how fragile life can be.

 I'm Glowing!

 Liver Biopsy Day

 My older sis came out to stay with me for a bit.  She was a fantastic nurse!

I am so grateful for everyone that helped me through this time in my life.  My parents, family, Inlaws, and friends all were so amazing to me.  It was hard and very weird for me to not clean my house or take care of my childrens needs, but it was so helpful to me!  It was also comforting to Andrew to know that I had help since he was miles and miles away.

.  This is me just three days after treatment...No more ORANGE!  (although it was kinda neat to have vampire eyes)



And Speaking of ORANGE.........
