Hello Everyone,

Today we headed back over to Peoria for Austin's physical therapy appointment.  Then on Sunday we head to Memphis.  Austin and Haley have appointments to see the surgeon on Wed. and Austin has at least one appointment with the orthopedic place to hopefully get his new knee back.  We weren't sure we were going to get to go to Memphis this time because of Austin's chemo schedule.  Dr. Al and I figured that Austin's body wouldn't be ready for his next round of chemo before next Friday anyway, so he said we could go.  We leave Sunday morning and will drive back on Thursday. 

Austin is super excited to go to Memphis this time because my 2 sisters and their kids (they each have 2) are going with us.  We are going to make a family vacation of it, minus the husbands.  Austin and Haley both can't wait to show their cousins all around Memphis and the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.  And each of our families are taking down donated supplies for the Ronald McDonald House so they will get to tour that facility too.  It will be a great experience for everybody.

Saturday we are spending the day in Elmwood, Haley will go swimming and Austin will get to play golf.  Since we are going to be busy all weekend, I probably won't update the website until we get down to Memphis.  We hope that all of you have a happy and safe 4th of July. 

Cathe, Greg, Austin and Haley, Blondie and Cookie too
