MRI

Yesterday Leroy had a new MRI! It's been a year since his last one and as bad as it sounds we & his doctor are hoping his back has changed for the worse. He's been in so much pain lately it's not even funny. All we hope is the disc has gotten worse and he can go into surgery and be better sooner than later.

Also.....we had a visitor weekend before last.....dum dum duh dum (my attempt at a drumroll) it was LEEANNE!!!! The kids and us were so excited! We haven't seen her since March of last year so it was an extra special treat when she called Saturday and said she was coming Sunday. The kids love to see her and show her everything =) At least Derrick is over his phase of calling her "Sister Leeanne" now she's just "Leeanne". For a while he made her out to be a nun, but it was so cute.

Danae never wants to leave her big sister's side when she's around. It's so awesome to see the three of them together. She's so patient with them, because they can be a handful. She even came bearing gifts that the kids are still telling me, "Mom, sister gave me this, it's mine, she really likes me".

I was also super excited to see her as she's into scrapbooking now! We went to a couple stores and shopped because we have different stuff than she does back in the central valley. Then came back and we raided each others paper piles =) I must say I have a new awesome stack of pretty paper for my projects thanks to Leeanne.

The kids got into bed really late but Leeanne tucked them in and promised that she'd come back and spend the night next time. So when she gets the chance we are SOOOOO ready for another visit! Here's some pics of the visit!
