Spring Break Vacation

It has been a good 5 days with family in Myrtle Beach.  The kids had a great time. Wonderworks was amazing and one of everyone's favorites.  We also went to a Hollywood Show at the Palace Theater.  Went to the beach, pool in the hotel, shopping and lots of food.  Probably too much food. Will have to exercise twice as much this week.  Weather was great after the Saturday drive in.  Other than McKenzie running a slight temp one day we had a good spring break vacation.  Now it is off to the mountain of laundry that always follows a vacation.  One of my favorite things about vacation is just watching my kids laugh and play and have a great time...(notice I did not mention anything about the fussing or aggravating that occurs on vac). George did great too...a little swelling in the leg tonight but all in all he felt good.  Tomorrow is Chemo number 12 and then he gets a break next week.  Next Thursday - April 28th is when they will rescan and see what effect the treatments have had on the cancer.  The doctor is very hopeful it will be good news just based on the external results we are seeing.  He is lined up to do two more months of chemo - May and June and then will scan again to see the difference.  Just keep praying that all is good results. 

Birthday Week!

Well, we survived Birthday Week at the Quinns. Matthew's birthday is March 28th - he turned 11 years old this year and will be graduating 5th grade in May.  How fast time flies!  I'm so proud he is my son - God has great plans for him and I can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for his life.  March 28th is also our official Gotcha Day for McKenzie.  We celebrated 4 years of having  our adorable China girl in our lives this year and then to finish up the week - April 1st is McKenzie's birthday - she turned 7 years old this year.  What a Blessing!  Birthday weeks can be exhausting not to mention costly but we've been to Frankies' Fun Park, Wild Wings, The Bowling Alley, Pizza, Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake, Hello Kitty Cupcakes and a Chocolate Hello Kitty Cake. More games and toys....Birthdays are fun, but most of all Thank you Lord for sending us 2 of the most wonderful kids in the world.  We are so blessed.

George starts his 4th round of Chemo on Thursday, just continue to pray that the treatments are working and that through the chemo - God is healing his body.  We will know more after this cycle and they re-scan late April or the 1st of May.  He did get to come off the lovenox shots last week and is only on the cumadin for blood thinner this week.  Let's hope that is working too.

Thanks everyone for all your support and prayers.
