Mama Mia and other things


Laurens best friend Makenna Beckstead was diagnosed with Leukemia about a month ago.  She and Lauren had just been out to BYU volleyball camp a few weeks before they found out.  Her outlook looks very positive, just a long haul of treatments.  Lauren is very concerned about her.  She wanted me to order her some bracelets with the words, "Kenna kick Cancer" on them and we gave about 200 to Kenna to pass out to her friends and family.  This is one of our visits to the hospital.

The boys playing in their last golf tournaments of the summer.  It was long, hot, and fun.
Ashlen is obsessed with the Movie, "Mama Mia"  She watches it many times a day and can sing most of the songs, you can't understand what she is saying, but she is singing them.  This is really the first time that she has sat down to watch anything on TV.  She also likes to watch. "so you think you can dance".  I guess it is the action she likes with the dancing and singing.  All I can say is, it's about time that kid started to watch tv.  I can finally have a few moments of peace.

So this is the friend that lives near me, right? What a great idea to make those bracelets - Lauren is an awesome friend. If you need me to act as delivery girl for anything just let me know.

The bracelet thing is a great idea. Good to hear things look good for her.

And glad Ashlen will finally sit still for something!!
