back on the grid

You may have wondered why I've been a bit MIA for the past week or so?




Of course you may not have too.




::smile::




But I'm going with the former! It makes me feel warm & fuzzy. And does wonders for any self esteem issues I have lingering from my middle school years.




::big smile::




Soooo...since you noticed. I thought I'd reward your kind-hearted curiosity with an irresistibly adorable picture marathon of exactly what Trevy and fam have been up to while we were off the grid for a week or so...



Enjoy!  



Trevy was granted a Wish trip to celebrate his 1 year post hemi (read: removal of almost HALF his brain) surgery anniversary! 



Pictures like this are AWESOME!  Total black mail for future dates! 

One of my faves! Catching Trevy in the act of smiling is tricky...so when we do it's always a fave. 


Such a ham! 

Can I get some honey with that ham?! 

Awwww...Goofy kissed Trevy's boo-boo spot! 


Possible Christmas photo card material.  So what if the kids all look dorky...Jonathan I look Super Cute! 

Is she too cute...or is she too cute? 

Trevy's star is hanging in the Castle of Miracles located in the heart of Give Kids the World resort in Kissimme, FL.  We have the coordinates if you're interested! :)





Melting anybody?! 

Hmmmm...do I need to break out that Barney photo already? 



Trevy smoochied Mickey's nose! 




Toby was the official "Trevy Holder in Placer" for all the pictures! 


hahaha this one just cracks me up!  Toby couldn't look less thrilled!  But don't let the surly face fool ya...he was LOVING it!  In fact, he begged to see the characters the most! 




Trevy kisses usually look like this.  A hand to the mouth.  Don't ask me why?  Maybe someday he'll be able to tell me! 





Many many thanks to our local Make a Wish chapter and Give Kids the World for granting Trevy this extraordinary gift!  



Like Minnie always says...

Dreams do come true! 



And for those who are craving more Disney adorable-iciousness...



no worries...you know I have way more pics to post!

No, I don’t know him personally

  I’ve had several emails today asking if I know Mike W. of Marissa’s Bunny personally.    Trevy’s blog was linked on her site.  Although it’s not now.     I’ve posted here and there at his request.  Because…well…we’re a community.  Us IS families.  And Marissa is wicked cute.  Her daddy has a way with words.  Also who wouldn’t want the world to know about an iPad give-away?    But aside from that…I know about as much as you do.    We’ve never met in person.    Our only communication has been cyber.    I’m a ginormous sap and as such would love to believe that all is right.  That the sweet, beautiful families who were promised iPads will be getting them tonight.  Tomorrow at the latest.  That no one has been lied to.  That the personal thank you for your generosity email I sent him on behalf of other IS families I’ve grown to love and was thrilled to learn w...

I was talking about you today

That's right. You. Sitting there glued. To the computer screen. Getting your Trevy fix. You who hasn't been able to tear your eyes away. The one who checks back here gobs of times a day. Hanging on every post. Especially the dripping with drama or funny posts. Because you need to either laugh or cry alternately. Just like me. And somewhere...sometime...somehow...over the course of these past couple years... ...you found yourself here. Reading about me. About my family. About my Trevy. And slowly you were drawn in. Until you couldn't help yourself. You were head over heels. Unashamedly addicted. Maybe we connected in a support forum. Perhaps we're old college friends. I know we have family following. Hi guys! Some teachers and therapists. Maybe even a medical professional or two. Perhaps our kids play ball together. We might be FaceBook friends. Or you could be a friend of a friend. Even a complete stranger. But to us... you each have a very special pla...

runaway

I tend to be a live out loud kinda girl. But sometimes... well...sometimes life is just so heavy. So intense. So overwhemling. That it brings out the recluse in me. Like lately. The thing is...I know it'll pass. It always does. And I'll learn something. Grow. Hopefully. Survive. Certainly. Because I have to. It's just right now. In this particular heavy moment. I would much rather run away to some tropical paradise and sip martinis until Jonathan calls to tell me Trevy's back at home. Happy. And seizure free. With a new head of curls covering the scar and bouncing around the house. I am a coward after all. I've never denied that. And I really don't want to live through this next month. Which is probably why my posts will be random. At best.
