Quick Update

Lots going on right now but thought I'd stop in to let everyone in on it.

1: We are thanking God for Ethan's clean bill of health. Well, mostly clean. His ears are completely healed. His cough is almost completely gone and his dr. said that he doesn't want to diagnose him with asthma just yet. Right now he's calling it Reactive Airway Disease which create asthmatic symptoms but they are triggered my something (yellow dust, perhaps?) instead of being constantly present like normal asthma. So he's on his nebulizer medicine 2 times a day until the summer when the pollen count goes down and then he'll probably have to go back on in the fall when more allergens re-emerge. Still, no fever or infections, no up-coming trips to the ENT, so we are grateful.

2: On Saturday night, our van died. This is our 1998 Toyota Sienna that we bought in 2004 off ebay. We thought we had a few more years in it but, alas, the engine is fried. We are not going to replace an engine on a car this old and so will be getting rid of it and getting something else. We've already got our eye on another ebay car so Eric may be making a trip to Florida to pick it up this weekend. We'll see.

3: My Grandmother is selling her house in Beeville. It went on the market today, She has decided to purchase a little house in a retirement community in San Antonio. This will be about 5 minutes from my uncle and right in the medical center area which is real convenient. Also easier to fly into San Antonio than Corpus and diving to Beeville. We are real excited for her.

4: My Pawpaw, (Daddy's Dad) is in the hospital in Beaumont. He is facing surgery to remove his gallbladder which is causing him all sorts of trouble. Please pray for his recovery. He'll be 80 this year.

That's all folks. Hope your week is going well.
