Admittedly, it was a little late in the season, and not the best day to visit the garden.

Elijah and Jonathan found cool stuff anyway.

Seeing Leni

Friends 3 Comments »

Last week, while Noah was at school, Kate and I stopped by the Hsiaos because Leni was home and we hadn’t seen her in a while. In August Leni was diagnosed with a rare form of Leukemia. Right now she’s between chemo treatments, and has a long slow road ahead of her, but she’s impressing everyone with how strong she is.

Kate was holding Leni’s hand. I told her to not say anything offensive, Leni’s so strong she might just take the finger with her.

This right here… this is my 1000th post. Pretty cool. In that time I’ve uploaded 11,677 photos, and here are 6 more. Last Saturday the weather was perfect and we met up with a bunch of friends at Underhill Playground. Noah climbing with his friend Milo from school.

Last weekend, Noahs card for Miles. He drew a “sea dinosaur”.

Fun!

The party was at a spot called Bounce U, Miles’ dad Tim was volunteering there (bouncing people, get it?).
