We seem to be on the mend here (knock on wood). Scott's blood clot is getting better and he told me this morning that his leg feels like it's at 90%. We'll take it. He was into the dr. this morning to have his blood "density" tested. He was at 3.2. They want his blood to be between 2-3 so this week he gets a slightly smaller dosage. Next week he has an appointment with a hematologist. They are going to try to find out what causes the clotting.
This past weekend was the Anderson Christmas in July, which now I think is just called the Anderson Reunion. We surprised Grandpa with a few songs and a big cake to celebrate his upcoming 90th birthday. Grandpa surprised us as well by playing his violin and the harmonica. He even sang a song about Issac and his goats. I've never seen Grandpa so charasmatic before. He was having a great time and I think we all enjoyed watching him perform.
We pitched our new tent for the first time. This was our first camping experience with the boys. They both did really well. With the rain in the forecast for Saturday night, we thought it best to sleep in Ryan and Melanie's camper. We didn't want Owen to get scared since we could hear thunder from a distance. Both boys ended up sleeping with me for most the night. Scott got his own bed.
I've signed up to run my first race. It's the Rosemount's Run for Gold 4-mile race. I don't plan to run the whole 4-miles, but I am hoping I don't have to walk much. This will give me a head's up to the 5k (only 3.1 miles) in August. I still think to myself, "Who is this girl?" I have to say now that I'm actually enjoying running (just not my knee so much). I was already thinking that I would sign-up again next year.

You look great Summer. I may need to join you for the next running season training thing.
I'm so proud of you. And you're inspiring us all! I went to the podiatrist to get orthotics so that I can hopefully stop the shin splints..and then start using the eliptical every night!
