After receiving the news of Geneice's diagnosis on Friday, May 28, I called her asking what I could do to help. Since she was immediately being sent to LDS hospital to begin treatment, I knew there wasn't much I could actually do for her, but my concern turned to her three boys, and where they would be for the weekend. I was planning on going to Bear Lake with my kids and BFF's, to stay there for the weekend, and took her two youngest boys with me. Since two of my kids were already planning on bringing a friend, I had seven kids with me. Let me say, despite the circumstances, we had the best time. The kids all got along great, and it was so much fun hanging out with them. I was so glad my nephews got to come, and that maybe I could distract them a little from the current situation. The rest of my family did come over for the day on Saturday, we went to the Minnetonka Cave, (which was a hit) and had a great dinner. So much fun. Friends and family are where it's at. Here are some pictures of our weekend.

I'm so sorry to hear about your sister in law. I tell ya - I hate cancer more than anything else. I do think that some of the strongest people in the world are given that challenge in life, because they are strong enough to handle it. I admire and respect people who go through such trials, but I certainly don't envy them.
