Boston Adventure

In early August Erica and I went to Boston with Brandon to the Massachusetts General Hospital for a meeting with research doctors for Brandon's condition - Central Precocious Puberty. This team of research doctors have taken on Brandon's condition as top priority since he is not responding as he should to the medicine he receives to slow down the puberty process in his body. The meeting was a success and they have already begun their research.

While we were there, we had an opportunity to walk the Freedom Trail, tour the USS Constitution and go the Boston's aquarium. Brandon loved walking through the cemeteries and looking at the headstones of many famous Americans that shaped our history.

Enjoy a couple of our pictures from the trip.

Alaska Adventure

Who would have figured that the internet would be so slow out to sea and out in the middle of nowhere in Alaska!!?? Rod and I have returned from our grand 2 week adventure to Alaska. Here are a few of the beautiful sights we saw. We took over 1300 pictures - what a slideshow!

Enjoy!

Alaska Adventure Begins

Well, the Meiers and 10 other friends and family are enjoying our first day at sea in the inside passage of Alaska. After a 2 1/2 hour delay leaving port yesterday we finally hit the sea. The weather was surprisingly warmer than we thought. All of our luggage made it and no one got lost!!
Look for daily postings of our trip.
Love,
Rod and Patty

Cadence & Tristan's Birthday Party

On May 17th all the family gathered at Melissa & Mark's home for a birthday pool party for Cadence and Tristan. Cadence turned 4 on 5/12 and Tristan will be 3 on June 19th. My sister Stephanie and her husband Joel were here from the UP of Michigan and couldn't wait to get into the pool. Much fun was had by all!

K-5 Graduation for Casey

On Wednesday evening May 14th Casey graduated from Kindergarten along with her friends. She sang, had a speaking part and walked formally down the aisle with her graduation gown and cap on. To say it was sooooo cute would be an understatement, but we're the Nammie & Papa!

Girls Day Out

On May 2nd Ashley, Casey and Cadence went with their Nammie to see Mulan the stage play. We had a great buffet lunch before the performance and then watched the 1 hour play from our center state, 2nd row table. Afterwards, we went to Build A Bear and each of them got to make the animal of their choice. All 3 of them spent the night and were up at the crack of dawn dressed and ready to go!! We had a blast!

Zachery's 6th Birthday

Daniella loves cake...yummy! Rod and Hector get into the spirit and Zachery is all smiles!
