...the morning at the Pumpkin Patch...

...recently we took our annual trip to the Pumpkin Patch...it was the fastest trip ever picking out our pumpkins...but the most important thing was we were together as a family enjoying each other and laughing...my Dad was feeling good enough to come and I was able to get a picture of him and the kids...just being able to capture this picture of him laughing means so much!

...we will be heading back to Spokane very soon...all of your thoughts and prayers are so appreciated during this difficult time...for those of you who are not here with us...you would be so inspired by my dad's courage and fight through this...we knew from the very beginning that 100% of the time the tumors are recurrent...we knew it wasn't a matter of if it would return but when...my dad has bad days but he doesn't expect anyone to feel sorry for him...he still is trying to do most everything for himself...even things he is told he shouldn't be doing...he is a true inspiration...definitely not letting anyone down...

Dr. Seuss was a very smart man...
