Steven

2nd week for Maui is booked! If you are thinking about joining us… this is where we are staying 11/7 - 11/14. http://www.vrbo.com/58187 Puamana, Lahaina. On the water…kid-friendly beach... and still close to town. Should be a blast.


… and 11/1 - 11/7 we are staying at the Hyatt. "Crawford" reservation. CLICK HERE!


… took Rogan on a date last week. It was pretty special to have her all to ourselves. Steven came too. Steven is one of Rogan's children. Steven is a female Koala bear who occasionally bites people. Rogan told us at dinner that Steven listened to her Mom yesterday and didn't bite… so she got a "listening star" for her "star chart". Oh.

2 YEAR ANNIVERSARY!

Today is the exact, 2 year anniversary of Rogan's diagnosis. We are thrilled to celebrate her health today... praise thanks to the many doctors & nurses along the way... and scream THANK YOU to all of our friends & family who have helped us get through this.

Last week we received an unbelievable donation towards Rogan's medical fund from UGG Australia. THANK YOU, love & respect to our family there; DARCEY BRINKERHOFF, CONNIE RISHWAIN & LEAH LARSON and everyone involved... we all cried and breathed sighs of relief when we got word.

Today we celebrate... takin' the day off & headed to the lake... then bar b & make a cake for our little chemo princess warrior. Thursday we head to clinic for her check up and IV chemo.

Rogan is lovin' Summer & not having to deal w/ a Broviac line.

We made it down to Hatch, UT & spent a relaxing few days with Grandma Bonnie. Her Grandpa Roger was missed... but his spirit was strongly felt and we all had a blast.

Thanks to Nana Noo Noo, Aunt Chris & Paul Clark for also hosting us at Bear Lake. The water was warm and the girls loved it. Rogan is learning to swim and is obsessed with the water.
