This year Chase was able
to participate in the Pine Wood Derby.
Chase's idea was a tank.
If you know him he is Army crazy.
The last two weeks have been
filled with this ...
These are the cars he racedagainst in the Wolf Den.
Here he is, sooo excited
for his first race.
Here he is winning his second race.
Green car on the left.
Here, Chase and Merrick
are making faces. Chase informed
me later they were talking
about girls (WHAT???)
Here Chase is holding his
awards for the evening.
Here is the winning car ...
YEP, I said it.
Chase won 1st place
for the Wolf Den and
3rd Place Overall.
This car is Chase's vision.
We tried to influence him and
he stood firm on what he wanted.
It's a good thing he didn't
listen to us. Even my dad
was alittle skeptical when he saw
it up agianst the other cars and
after seeing one of
Chase's cousins cars.
Sometimes simple and classic
are better.

I spent many hours
the last two days cutting
these cute little things for
a friend. There is the window frame,
the cartoon pig, the igloo and then
there is a fat pig not shown.
I'll explain more later when
I get a copy of the finished project
that these were used in.
I just love my Silhouette and all
that it can do.
I have tons of scrap fabric.
I have tons of scrap fabric.Lots of flannel not lots of fleece.
I am tired of buying the
swiffer replacement thingys,
so I thought I bet I can make my own.
I started with this pile of scraps.
I cut a few layers and sewedthem together down the middle.
Made a pocket for the
stick thingy to fit in.
Fringed them.
Then I threw it in
the washing machine.
This is what came out.
Looks kinda yucky butboy does it work swell.
I think I will make one
tomorrow with fleece. It
won't fray like the flannel
but should pick up just as well.
DIY = MONEY SAVED ...

So this is where we were
headed to at 5am today.
Chase slept most of the way there
and was surprisingly calm and
in a good mood for the trip.
He never let on that he was nervous
and says he wasn't. I have
a feeling that Nate and I were
more nervous and worried than he was.
We checked in and after about 20
We checked in and after about 20 minutes we headed back to the
pre-op holding area. Chase
read One fish, two fish,
red fish, blue fish while we
waited. A nurse asked
a bunch of questions and then
Dr. Raines stopped by and
then the anthesiologist.
Finally they took him back
and we were so pleased that
there weren't any tears like
all the times before.
Here he is 25 minutes later.
The only thing we could see was a
little indentation where the
oxygen mask was and the same
on his ear where the strap lay.
It was so good to see him smiling.
Here he is 10 minutes
later patiently waiting for Nate
to bring the truck around so
we can go home.
Good news only had work and
a tube done on the left ear.
All is well with the right ear.
Dr. Raines is cautiously optimistic
that the eardrum will heal. It may take
several weeks up to several months
as it was much more retracted
than they realized.
Prayer will be my best friend
until we know if his hearing was
preserved or if he will eventually
need a hearing aid.
