Another Week Gone By...

Visitors
We had visitors from Texas this week. Our house was bursting at the seams with four extra people, but everyone has had a great time; except Shade, who has spent the week under the bed hiding.

Here's pictures of some of the activities.

Ben and Francesca with Jefferson at Monticello.

Carson smiles when receiving the anti-aircraft "gun" complete with army truck all the way from Texas!


Carson then poses with Aunt Jeffere and "the gun"

Next, Carson proceeds to have Nona play "Army trucks with guns".
Last time I checked, they were still playing.

The "Changing of the Guard" at Arlington Cemetery.

Carson views the Changing of the Guard with great interest.

He was actually pretty quiet during the whole thing!

Francesca, Ben, Nona and Auntie take a break at Arlington.

Swim Meet
The weekend came, so it was time for another swim meet. NVSL All Stars. Francesca did great; she was 5th in the 50m Fly and 2nd in the 100m Individual Medley. We think this is an awesome finish for someone who is not a sprinter. No photos here at Francesca's request.
This week from Wednesday through Saturday we have Zones where Francesca will compete against 11-12 year old girls from all over the North East. Go Francesca!

Clinic
We have a clinic visit tomorrow to check the blood and get an IV of pentamadine (our new antibiotic). We are hoping for rising counts since Carson did not have bactrim this weekend. We shall see.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!! We are so thankful that we've had a busy, normal summer that did not involve a hospital stay. This kind of busyness is better than the other. We don't complain about it one bit!
