We're looking for sponsors!

Most of you know about the HIS HOME 300- we are only a month away from this one week, 300 mile ride to raise awareness and funds for HIS HOME. Our family has been really busy putting together the route, and sorting out all of the details. We are also in process of gathering sponsors for Geoff's ride. Any amount is appreciated. Our desire is to be able to roll into Harrod on the 26th with tremendous blessings for the kids at HIS HOME. Let Geoff know if you would like to sponsor him, and amount you would like to contribute.
Thanks for all your prayers and support.
Check out the link to the HIS HOME 300 for more details, and to see the list of supporters who have already come on board.

The Diagnosis


Today was Grace's appointment with the genetic specialist. She has a form of arthrogryposis (joint contractures). Specifically it is called Trismus-Pseudocamptodactyly Syndrome. It is a rare genetic disorder causing short tendons in the hands and legs and the inability to completely open the mouth. It will not get progressively worse or better. Her dislocated hips are not caused by this syndrome. So now we take a big sigh of relief that there are no surprises in the diagnosis and prepare for foot surgery in July.

By the way- those are play straw bales with velcro on them stuck on their heads- the hair is sooooo cool!
