I apologize for the lateness of this update. All of our schedules are quite hectic, with never a moment to spare. In May we took the family to Laughlin, Nevada for some needed R & R. We celebrated Aunt Chris (big) birthday, reunited with Bobb's cousin Cheryl and his cousin Tony. We all (30 of us) had a great time at Tony's concert (see new pictures) Thank you to Tony and his wonderful band for an amazing night and for dedicating the concert to Lisa. (Not a dry eye there) We did miss Uncle Bill and Kelly that weekend. Bill was home healing from his accident. He is doing remarkable and says thank you to everyone who held him up in prayer! IT WORKED!
Lisa just completed her first semester at Coastline College. Her progress went from not even remembering she attended school, to knowing everyone in her class by name. She has been switch to a higher level learning class for the summer and we are excited to see her take on the challenge. Though she never looks forward to going we are hoping a more stimulating environment will help to change that. Lisa's short tern memory continues to improve ever so slightly. It's so encouraging to see improvement in that area! Lisa still struggles with everyday decision making. We can't figure out if she doesn't trust herself to make a decision or if it is just a hard thing for her to do. Daily life has its challenges, not just for Lisa, but also for the whole family. Trying to live life as it once was is impossible and frustrating. We are all on this new journey together. Figuring it out as we go, and letting God direct our steps. Thank you for your continuing prayers and support. God bless you and may the summer days ahead be filled with lots of love and laughte
