Ryan's Surgery

Surgery Day - Today Ryan got his tonsils, adenoids and a spur from his nose removed.  Here he is just after coming into his room.  He is very nervous as are mom and dad.
Relief after the much dreaded IV was put in.  He had the nurse spray something that felt like frostbite which dulled the area when the needle went in.  He was a trooper and did so great!
After surgery - very sleepy and exhausted.  We stayed at the hospital for about 2 hrs then headed home.  Glad to have it over, it will be a rough couple of days but will be all worth it in the end when he can breathe!
 Love you Bud!

2014 ISU Basketball Camp in Ames, IA

We spent the week in Ames for the boys and girls basketball camps for Ashley and Ryan.  On our very first day we got a picture of the kids with Coach Fred Hoiberg!  We went down with Coleton and Amber Pitts and had a really great week.
