In a completely unrelated note, you have no idea how happy it makes me to have taken a pretty picture again. :) Settings are ISO400, f3.2, 1/250 SS taken with my 35mm lens, straight out of camera
This makes me happy for so many reasons! One of which is that I find it reassuring that Rory sweats about as much as our two girls. Must be a Korean thing :)

Briar sweats in the exact same place on her nose. :O)
There are an embarrassing number of pictures in this post. It was one of those early fall afternoons that was just perfection. I had a hard time putting the camera down so that I could actually participate in the activity. It just felt like I was missing out on trying to capture the feeling of that hour in the park. If you can believe it, family, I actually played football. :) Side note: I have alot more pictures of Rory than Camden mostly because he moved too fast for me to capture very well. Most of his pics are blurry. Caught it even with his eyes closed. Watching barges and speed boats go by.
I feel as if I don't even know where to start this post since things have been happening at a rapid pace over the last several weeks. And I'll apologize in advance, because it's not alot of fun information, but I'm documenting more for my sake than yours. So after several weeks of not only being ill from chemo but having a crazy swollen IP (stomach) port as well as a crazy knot down near my belly button - both of which were incredibly painful - they admitted me to the hospital Monday morning (July 4). One of the few perks of being a cancer patient is that your doctor can simply place a phone call to the hospital and from the time we walked in the door until we were in our room was barely 10 minutes. They immediately did a CT scan and put me on two IV antibiotics. The CT tech ran the dye through my port, which is apparently a big no-no. This detail is important later on. Wednesday, the doctor who did my colon surgery stopped by and decided the port had to come out beca...
I've made it! Today I see Dr. W and then have my last scheduled chemo treatment. Early on in the chemo journey, I had this idea (taken from a sermon and actually the illustration was kind of morbid, but I adapted!) to fill up a jar with marbles and each day move one over until it was the final day of chemo and the jar was empty. I got the kids involved, and I can't say we kept up with it religiously, but we did minimally keep up, and I was always aware of those two jars. Well, this morning, that jar is EMPTY. Now, let's start praying RIGHT NOW that it stays empty! P.S. Becky bought me these beautiful glass jars from Anthropologie, the only thing I own from that store although I drool over their newsletters often.
