Golf is in the air!

If you followed this blog at all in the past year, you know Will has been a busy boy.  Since last May we have been to Kansas City three times for three weeks at a time for the Intensive suit therapy at Hyperbaric Healing Institute (HHI).  Of course this last time we added HBOT (oxygen therapy) as well.
Phil and I feel that these trips have strengthened Will's abilities and given him so much more confidence to do the things that come so easily for you and I.  Will has come a long way since the days of his first therapies but he still has a long way to go.
We are planning another trip to HHI this summer for the same suit therapy and HBOT combination.  We are looking at the month of July for this next session.
Last April we had our first Kansas City Round-Up golf tournament fundraiser.  It was hugely successful!  As I mentioned, we went to KC three times because of that fundraiser!  The only thing was wasn't successful about that day was the weather!  It was a cold, rainy day.  Because of that we are moving this year's tournament to June.  If it rains, at least it will be warmer rain!

Last year we filled up very quickly, which was awesome!  I hope this year's tournament is just as successful. Will enjoys his therapy at the gym with Miss Tiffany.  I would love to be able to keep going as long as we can!

Spread the news and get your teams together soon!  Not a golfer, hole sponsorship's are available.  We can also use other donations and volunteers.  Call Katie (my sister) with any questions.  You'll find her information on the flyer.

Despite the weather, we had an awesome time last year.  I'm looking forward to another great year!  Thanks again for your ongoing support!

The Final Week! A fun filled weekend with family and dives 27 &28

Happy Monday!  It's week 3.  We're almost finished.  Will is ready to go home.  He is missing his Daddy, (and he just saw him yesterday!). Phil and the kids came in Friday night and stayed until yesterday afternoon.  We filled the weekend with as much as we could!  Two movies (me and big kids), 3 dives (Will and his daddy), indoor skydiving (Ben and Isabel), and church (together!)!  Together again!  My kiddos!  Will's waving to the camera! All the happy divers...Phil, Grandma Linda, Mason (front and center!) Josie and Will! I had a fun surprise for Ben and Isabel!  Indoor Skydiving!  They LOVED it!  Score one for MOM!  It was fun to watch.  Will said he's going to do it next time!  I might just try it too!   They take you out once to let you figure it out and then give you a second flight to go much higher! The first video shows Isabel's first flight, the instructor said sh...

Hello Friday!!! Dives 36 and 37

Dive 36- Josie and Will.  Started the day with another dose and oxygen and Mickey Mouse! Our last solo workout in Miss Tiffany's gym.  We skipped the yoga today and went right for the stairs.  Will grabbed his canes and some friends and got started.  As he was walking it occurred to me how often I took for granted when Ben and Isabel went walking across the floor with toys in their hands.  Just think about that for a minute...then watch this video! He carried Mario and Luigi to the stairs.  I carried them up the stairs and then he proceeded to throw them down.  Typical kiddo! After getting hurled down the stairs now poor Mario has to be thrown in a hoop!  Poor guy! He threw all of Mario's friends in the basket too.   Then he made his way across the room to leave Miss Tiffany one last message.  He made it about halfway when he fell, but you know Will, he got right up and finished the job! I think Will enjoy...

Soccer!

Miss Isabel decided she would play soccer this year.  She played when she was in Kindergarten but when 1st grade sign ups came around she said she didn't want to play.  When I asked her why, she said..."It's just too much running!".  Then when sign ups came in second grade, she thought she might like it again.  Well, we signed her up and then she decided that she didn't want to play after all.  Practices hadn't even started yet so we let her quit.  Many of her friends were playing though and I think once the season really got started, she regretted her decision.  So here we are, a year later and  Izzy (as she's starting to use these days) is playing soccer in the third grade!  There is still a lot of running, which she's still not crazy about, but hey...she's playing!
