Fun in the mountains

Brent with his new cousin Phoenix such a cutie!!!!! Love him.


The 2 girls and the 2 boys.


Had lots of fun at Uncle Jasons house. Some good old airsoft gun fun.



Grandma and Grandpa with there grandkids.

Highlights:
Easter holidays were lots of fun. On Saturday April 2nd Auntie Ang, Uncle Norm Alecia, and Elianna came and spent the week with our family. Uncle Norm took Brent to the music store and got Brent a practice pad for drums. Brent loves it ...Carolyn and Scot not so much. Norm also helped Scot with his work bench in the garage. Carolyn and Ang got a little shopping in but Carolyn was busy with physio quite abit and appointments.

On April10th Brent and Carolyn made a spur of the momment trip to Abbotsford. They came with Grandpa to pick Grandma up and got the extra perks of seeing some family. Poor Scot had to stay home to work. :( Our next visit to B.C. will be as a family!

We arrived in Abbotsford on Sunday in one piece... considering Carolyn drove the whole way. Brent was so happy to see his cousins and Auntie and Uncle. Brent never seems to get to see them enough. The last time they had seen Brent he was still in Regina General. They were a little teary eyed when they saw him walk to them.

Brent is still having to do homework while he is away. (NOT LOVING THAT!) Part of Brent and Carolyn's physio is holding Phoenix LOTS!!!! It's hard let me tell you. On Tuesday Brent is planning a sleepover with Parker. He will do lots of hand therapy playing xbox with Parker! He sure has a tough life! Brent and Carolyn miss Scot lots and wishes he was here with them.

Please continue to pray that Brent's tests in Regina (April 27 - 29th) will make it possible for the reversal of the ostomy. Pray for wisdom for the Doctors that they will know how to accomplish the reversal.

Thank You for your faithful prayers.
Keep hoping. Keep Loving. Keep praying.

  2. I love those genuine happy smiles Brent with the sparkle in your eyes, such a difference from the painful smiles in the hospital. Keep getting better and I'll keep praying...Rose, Calgary

  4. was glad to get your text that your trip went well. I can't believe you drove all the way> Thanks for the great visit and everything else!! It brought tears to our eyes too, to see Brent walk out of the house and greet us at Easter time! We are so grateful for close friends that spoiled us all. Brent had Xbox set up for me in my bedroom and even let me use his ipod and all the other treats that auntie bought. Love you guys Auntie Ang,Uncle Norma,Alecia and Elliana
