We're outta here!

Hi!! Well, I am writing this in a bittersweet mood... We have officially been released from the Ronald McDonald House! I am supposed to be packing & moving & cleaning right now. I am really happy to be going home but it's kinda scary too! Sheridan has finally been diagnosed chronic renal failure. We will move to a closer dialysis unit & she will begin the tests to see if she is going to be a good recipient for a transplant. So, after all this she will end up with a transplant. Yesterday was exactly 8 months of being here at the hospital. It was snowing the day we were driven by ambulance to Children's. I remember the roads being icy. Today it's about 80' out & just super nice. Weird! Fair went AWESOME!! All of my girls recieved big rosette ribbons & it was well worth all the sleepless nights & early mornings! Well, I have to run to the P.O. Later! Heather!!

Happy August Everyone!

This is going to be a good month! This will be a super busy month too! I am currently driving back & forth everyday from Seattle to Elma.... 2 hours if the traffic is good! I am setting the donut machine up this weekend at a really awesome little place out by my little farm. This place is my inspiration everytime I am there! My daughter is raising $$ for her drillteam uniform so hopefully she will sell ALOT of donuts! I am also selling some of my little lipglosses I make. 3 flavors, cherry vanilla, pina colada & peppermint.... which is your flavor? I think I will throw in some cool crocheted bags I have too. Those are great for alot of things! I will take some pics & post them next week. I took my 4-H group on a trailride today, good work-out for the horses & the girls. The fair is from the 8th to the 12th.... I will be gone from the blog for a week! I will have the donut booth up at the fair too! After our trailride I took Taryn to drillteam practice & I headed out to the fields to mow hay. The John Deere is loud.... the mower is hella-loud & I ended up with a pounding headache! I went over to pick up some decorations for fair & I was talking & realized... I am loud!!! It's cuz I couldn't hear! After I yelled at everyone in the house I headed for Seattle! Made it in good time.. painted the little things, threw a load of laundry in, started on the halters I am making the girls for fair( super cute) & here I am! Tomorrow Sheridan has dialysis & a doctors appt. to discuss her upcoming kidney biopsy. Let's take a poll... will she or won't she need a kidney transplant? At this point something needs to be done. Life doesn't stop for any of us. It seems like it would but it doesn't. So, I think I am rambling. I don't think, I know I am. It's 2:30 a.m. I am going to bed nite you guys & I can't wait to post some pics of this months STUFF! Smiles everyday to you! Heather!!
