It's a party!

Mom is adamant about having a party, and she wants to be part of it. So while waiting around for the surgeons and staff to help her out, we just bring in more food, balloons and flowers. Unfortunately she can't eat anything, but doesn't seem to mind that we are eating our selves sick as we hang around her room. She's still the most amazing woman we know!

Marti's kids Zac, Brandon and Shauntay hang out with their Grandma.

Maggie Jo and Grandma Janet have playtime.

Brent (Janet's husband) and Ray are the patriarcal leaders

Cute Lori is contemplative and brilliant

She's loud, obnoxious and crazy, but she's fun! Some things never change, Joan just hangs out.

Mom's little sister Doris came for a visit!

Only the amazing Betty Speakman could still be smiling after 10 days of not eating, 5 days with a tube down her throat, and having her much needed surgery cancelled only moments before being given the IV. What an elegant and gracious woman.

Sure Love Ya!
