My two great kids!
I am a mother of two wonderful children whom I absolutely adore and cherish every moment that I get to spend with them. We have had a rough year, one that has been a test of our faith but we have learned how to rely on each other. We all have such a close relationship because of what we have endured together.
Savannah
Our sweet little Savannah is 9 yrs old. She is getting ready to start 4th grade. Savannah is a peacemaker, is tender hearted and always concerned about the feelings of others. She is a great helper and always willing to do anything you ask her to do. We are so blessed to have her be a part of our family.
Payton
Payton is our sweet little boy that has tugged on our heart strings and made our faith grow strong. Payton was a happy normal 2 year old little boy old when he started running a low grade fever, which eventually lead to the discovery that he had a rare kidney tumor (Wilm's Tumor) on June 1st, 2007. Payton was diagnosed as stage 2, unfavorable histology (diffuse anaplasia) in his right kidney. He has undergone a radical nephrectomy, radiation and chemotherapy. At Payton’s 2 year after treatment checkup they found a growth on his liver. We were extremely scared. Payton underwent another major 10 hour surgery in April of 2010. We were so relieved to find out that the spot was benign. The spot was an iron deposit left over from his multiple transfusions. What a relief and blessing.
Payton is doing great and will continue to have scans every 3 months for the next 3 years. We are staying very optimistic and love our little boy more than words can say. Payton has been a brave and courageous trooper through all of this. We are constantly reminded every time we look at him what a little miracle and true blessing he is to our family. We are so grateful that he is a part of our lives.

So good to see his precious smile. What a great day.
I am so glad to see the kids having such a great day! Thanks for sharing the pictures with us. We are sure excited to have you come to Utah in a week!
Love Grandpa and Grandma
That looks like lots of fun! Savannah looks so sweet walking and holding Payton's hand.
