This past Saturday was Chris' baptism, Terry and Lisa's son. Jamie left dad's wheelchair out in the car. It was so good to see dad sitting next to mom on the pew. He was able to stand and participate in Chris' confirmation with the aid of his hemi-walker. Dad and mom and Wendy went to Reno a week and a half ago for Matthew's baptism, Randy and Debbie's son. Debbie, mom, and Wendy said that dad was driving the motorized cart at Costco in Reno like a maniac. They were afraid he was going to run someone over. He is now officially done with home health care and moves onto going to physical therapy in American Fork. Last week dad had appointments with both of his doctors that he had up at IMC. Both doctors were extremely pleased with dad's progress. He has once again had amazing therapists that we love and appreciate so much. We will miss them, but so grateful for dad's progress. We are having dad walk now as much as possible when he moves from room to room around the house and only sitting in his wheelchair and using it in the evenings so that it is easier on mom. We were reading the scriptures this morning and dad, mom, and I were all in awe of how well he was reading. There were a few of the verses that he read that he got word for word and you wouldn't have been able to even tell that he had had a stroke!! Every day little miracles continue to happen.
We can't thank you all enough for you continued faith, prayers, and visits. It makes such a difference!!

I can't believe that Chris and Matthew are that old! That's so cool that Grandpa got to be there for both. Good job Grandpa!
