What a great Family!

Hi - It's Mom - I just want to tell you all how thankful I am for each of you-
Thanks for your love and support for Erynne. She has made a lot of progress
and I know that your letters and words of encouragement have given her
strength to carry on. As I'm sure you have noticed - she can't say enough
about how much she loves each of you. Families are the best - we have
a wonderful one! Thanks again for all you do to make ours special.

July Birthday Party

We will be having the birthday party later in the month to insure that our house is done. And to also make sure we are all settled down from our moves. So please be patient. I have decided to do it on a Sunday night this month and I would like to have Erynne share some of her experiences with us that night as well.

Sunday, July 29th at 5:00pm
Our new house - 672 Borden Road

See you then
Sarah

Updated Monthly Birthday Host - 2007

This is for you, Erynne!


I mentioned to the family that I will be starting a challenge for myself to benefit Erynne as she is at Anazazi. Erynne wrote a letter home telling us about her experience and how one of the girls mother was hiking for her every week. So I told myself to make a challenge similar to that.
Erynne will be hiking 6 miles a day. So I will walk/run 6 miles a day except Sunday until she returns home on July 7th. If you don't do 6 miles who cares just get out and walk for her and just take time for yourself to contiplate on what you are grateful for.
Who is with me? Post with your name and run/walk log and get started.
This is for you Erynne! We love you and are willing to make this challenge happen to show our love and support.

January SUPRISE Birthday/Old School Game Night

For this month of January we only have one birthday and that is Papa John. IT WILL BE A SUPRISE PARTY! The night of the party will be Saturday the 13th at 4pm at Kelly's house because we will be needing to use the yard. We pushed it back a weekend because we will be out of town the 1st weekend of January.

We will begin with our Old School Game Night which was inspired by Kelly and I because we were talking one night and were thinking about all the funny games we used to play as children (chinese jumprope, hopskotch, etc.) So if you have a game to share please let me know.

Next will be dinner. Afterwards I will share some personal history about Papa John. Then we will close our evening with our motivational speech about Goal Setting.
