Arizona Fun

Round Five

"Fighting" cancer brought new meaning to the word after round four, and I'll admit there were a few days I wondered if I could really come out on top, but with the team I have behind me there was no doubt and I was able to catch a plane to sunny Arizona and spend a fabulous weekend with the family there. Shannon, Poppy, and the UT girls traveled by car to join the fun. Thanks to Chris and Kristen for the airline ticket, and Brandon for flying home with me. We had a wonderful time going to lunch, shopping at Designer Blvd., going to Streamers, bowling, and just hanging out. It was so good to see my AZ girls, and I think it helped them a lot to see me, too. Sunday was a treat to hear Chris and Kristen speak in church, and as always, I felt the talks were direct from the Lord to me. Their topic was from President Monson's last conference speech "Enjoy the Journey". I learned a lot, and hope to better in the coming days. (My first goal is not to moan at Shannon every time she brings me pills). I continue to be humbled, grateful, and amazed at the love and care I receive on a daily basis. I'm geared up and ready to take on round five for the next little while. Thank you once again my dear friends for all you do for me. I love hearing from you, reading your comments, and express special thanks for the meals, gifts, cards, garden produce, and especially your prayers. I feel the tender mercies of Lord daily because of your efforts. With love 'till next time.
