Rain - rain go away!

Eden was feeling good over the weekend so we headed to the farm.

Eden & Rick - Eden's got her eyes on the inbound combine!

Here comes Annette in the combine!!!

The seat was comfortable, the ride was smooth, the view was great, and Annette showed Eden and I how to run a combine. Thanks Annette!!! We had a blast.

As you can see from the photos, Eden thoroughly enjoyed her trip to our friend's farm for a late afternoon trip aboard the combine.

This week, Selena and Eden head north to Iowa City for chemo at the clinic. Lately, she appears to be feeling good most of the time, and periodically, she appears worn down. Thankfully, the good times out weigh the not so good. She continues to get plenty of rest daily, is eating and drinking well, her hair continues to grow and overall seems to be a normal two and a half year old. We're so thankful and blessed for Eden and the progress she's made. Please continue to keep her in your thoughts and prayers, as she still has a long "row to hoe" (come on - she's a farm girl now).

  1. Whoa,Eden, you are one lucky girl!! The boys love combine rides!! Did you stay awake? Many kids have been known to fall asleep while riding in the combine! So very happy that you were able to be outside enjoying the weather. Keith and Cale were at Jack Trice on Saturday cheering on the Cyclones!! Hope you have a good week!

    We keep praying, praying, praying!!
    Love,
    Heidi

  2. Glad to hear things are going well. Continue to think of all that the three of you have on your plates. The good times will get better and longer but it takes a while. Tough job but keep up the good work- Steve J.

  3. Hey, Eden, it's Heidi again....Keith just looked at your pictures and said that he is jealous! He wants to come and ride in the combine with you! Do you think that if he came down, you could take him? It's been awhile since he's gotten to ride in a combine.

    Take care of your Mom and Dad! :)
    Love you,
    Heidi

  4. Hi Kurt, Selena and Eden,
    I was really excited to see you on the farm. The country life seems to always make things a little better. I'm sure Donny would love to give you a ride in the combine too if you come our way.
    I hope your appointments in Iowa City are going well. You continue to be in our thoughts and prayers.
    Deb, Don, Em and Amy

  5. Thank you for sharing your farm trip and I am sure Eden loved it as much as the two of you. Eden is still and will be in my prayers for a very very long time.

    Lots of love. Linda
