Last weekend we took a trip to Flagstaff to see family. Our sister in law, Gayle, was just diagnosed with breast cancer. We made the trek out to be together with family before her surgery that took place yesterday. She had a double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery, all of which went well. The greatest gift is that her lymph nodes came back clear which is a good indicator that they "got" it all. She's amazing... she's such a rock. I want to be like her when I grow up :) While we were there we got to introduce little Sadie to the family, play together, celebrate our sister-in-law, Ruth's birthday, see a piano recital, and just hang out. It was perfect.
before we hit the snow of Flag, we spent a night in Palm Springs
"Nice to meet you, Baby Sadie William!"
We had fun playing in the snow
Our snow friends, Jean and Pierre
The world's most patient cat, Sneakers
Happy Birthday, Ruth

On Friday night Gayle had a surprise visit from her nursing staff at Flagstaff Medical Center. Gayle is a labor and delivery nurse... and it's clear she's made a huge impact on the ladies that she works with. Another cool thing about our family is that both of our sister in laws are nurses and get to work together at the hospital... how fun to work together with your sister... kinda like someone else I know :)
