A CRAZY Week!

I have said that in our family the week of Halloween is way crazier than Thanksgiving or Christmas! This week proved that to be the case. A Halloween Birthday is no joke.

Before I get into ALL the pictures...I need to say something. Thank you to our village for loving us well. Thank you for showing my children (especially Alex) that he can make a difference. For years, Alex asked me if God doesn't make mistakes then why does he have so much "wrong" with him. My answer was always that God doesn't make mistakes and that his purpose was to show people that you can still have a happy life and inspire others no matter what your circumstances. That sweet boy of mine has taken that message to heart and has found purpose through sharing his story.  He is committed to making our hospital, CMNH, and this world a better place. Helping him reach his goals whether through prayers, encouragement, or donations has strengthened his resolve and motivated him to push harder. So thank you for all you do.

Now for a picture documentary of the week:

Mad had her birthday party at Texas Ballet Theater with a surprise visit from Rapunzel!
















After the party we headed to church for Trunk or Treat

Tuesday was a Costume Parade and Party at school





Tuesday night was TCU Boo with the TCU Dance Marathon Kids






Wednesday we took our traditional pumpkin pictures before school!







On top of all of that, Alex was the Tour Guide at the Annual Haunted House at the Hospital on Monday and Tuesday!

It was a week full of celebration and joy! We are tired, but our hearts are full. Please say some prayers for me this week as my surgery is on Tuesday. I have more pictures and an update on Alex and Zoey (his service dog) that I will share later in the week!
