Merry Christmas.....sort of!!

Hi Everyone!
Steve is in REMISSION!!! Yeah!!! His blood levels are all looking great!! He will see his doctor every 6 weeks or so and they are going to introduce that eye-swelling drug, Rituxin, again. The doctor feels this is Steve's best chance at staying in remission. So, they will introduce it VERY gradually, kind of like allergy shots to build up his system so he won't have those severe reactions anymore. He is taking a two month sabatical from Intel in February and March. He has lots planned to do. We are going on the Stake Trek in July as a "Ma and Pa." We need to get in shape...at least I do or those kiddos will run me ragged!!
Here are a few pictures of Rufus' first Chrismas!! This dog is CRAZY! The first picture is our living room tree and brand new poinsettias. The next picture is of one of my Snowmen. The last picture is our family room tree and how I think we will decorate it!



Have a wonderful Christmas ya'll!!

  1. That dog is crazy - good thing you are patient.

    Love that you guys are going on the trek - the kids WILL LOVE both of your spirits and enthusiasm.

    And of course we are thrilled to hear about Steve (even though we already knew - it is nice to read it and hear the sweet words of remission again)
