July Update

Last night we received the news that we lost our Uncle Mike to cancer. He was a true fighter - when first diagnosed, the doctor's gave him 6 months; he lived for four years. Our condolences go out to Aunt Jeanette, Jenny, Alex, Bobby, the Brown family and all who knew Mike.

As Johnny Cash once sang, "I'll meet you further on up the road."



Yesterday also brought some good news. We attended our 16 week baby doctor appointment. Baby JJ is looking good. In fact, he made his acting debut -



In other July news, on Saturday, July 10th, San graduated from the University of Phoenix with a Bachelor of Science in Human Services. I'm so proud of her. I'll tell you this - when San puts her mind to something, she gets it done! Never has she half-assed anything.



We threw a BBQ in honor of San's graduation and, in preparation for the event, I had to stop some hornets from making their new home in our old bird feeder.



Well, that's about it. Life is right now so bittersweet with the passing of Mike and our child in the womb. C'est la vie, así es la vida..

  1. So sorry to hear about your Uncle Mike. I'll keep the family in my thoughts.

    It is so exciting to see little JJ! 16 weeks already? Wow. Does time feel like it is just flying by.

    Big congrats to San for her graduation! Yay!

    I hope to see both of you again soon.
