Lots to be thankful for...













We have so much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving! Cash is really doing well. He still struggles with tummy troubles on a daily basis but he is improving each day. After a busy week of doctors appointments, we are looking forward to a calm Thanksgiving. The doctors are very determined to make sure Cash is healing and growing big and strong. I think you can tell from these photos that he has his very happy times and feels good. We will continue with some close follow up with the GI specialist to figure out why Cash still has discomfort and to ensure that we aren't missing anything that might be going on with him. All in all, we feel like Cash is much improved and we are so grateful for answered prayer for his healing.

In other news, Mitch has been offered a position as a Manager at a Starbucks at a mall in Raleigh. We are so excited about this answered prayer. What an amazing blessing for us. The formal offer should come this week and Mitch could be running the store in the next couple of weeks (just in time for the crazy holiday season!).

We wish you and your family a wonderful Thanksgiving. Love, Kari, Mitch & Cash

We made it to NC - safe and sound! Cash did great on his first plane ride and Mitch and Jeremy drove straight through to NC. Mitch got here before we did and picked us up from the airport!

We are just getting settled in. It's a little chaotic and crazy right now, but it's nice to be surrounded by family. Mitch and I are just starting to de-stress after the events of the past 4 months. It's going to take some time to relax...It's beautiful in North Carolina right now. It's like we get to have Fall twice - once in Colorado and now here. The leaves are beautiful and the weather is so mild.

Cash seems to be feeling better every day. He is over 13 lbs now and smiles more and more. I think he would eat his hands if he could - he's just so fascinated by them. He doesn't seem to mind at all when the dogs come right up into his face and lick him. Here are some pretty cute pics of him from the last few days. Love, Kari

Casher: Home and doing well!

Hello everyone, just a quick update: Casher came home this last Saturday, he is doing better than ever! He is eating this terrible tasting specialized formula, taking some meds, and getting vitamins. He is eating more and more each day, soon he will eat us out of house and home I'm sure. Kari and I are having an open house this Sunday at our good friends Abby and Travis' house down in highlands ranch. First chance for most people to meet the kiddo, and maybe the last chance to say "bu-bye" to us before we move. If anyone is interested its this Sunday, the 8Th from 3-6pm. 5460 fox meadow ave. highlands ranch, co 80130
Kari, Casher and I will all be leaving Denver and making the trip to N.C. next week. I am driving out with my brother-in-law Jeremy and the dogs next Wednesday, Kari and Casher are flying with grandma Swann next Thursday.
Thanks as usual for being amazing. Mitch
