Sacramento!

On April 25 Caden and I flew down to Sacramento for a few days. The primary reason for the trip was for Caden to have a pre-surgery consultation to get ready to have his g-tube removed in June! We could have the tube removed in Washington, but we already have an established relationship with the surgeon in Sacramento so we felt more comfortable doing it there. And, the added bonus was getting to see friends and family while we were there.

Caden and I got to have lunch with my dear friend, Shirley! He had so much fun with her.

On the 26^th, Caden had his consultation with the surgeon and we are scheduled to have his g-tube removed and the hole surgically closed on Monday, June 18! I will write another post with more information about this.

Greg and Kyler drove down and arrived on the 27^th and when they arrived, we drove over to his sister, Natalie's, house. It was fun to see her and her kids. Caden had fun playing with Brody who will be 1 in July. And, Kyler loves playing with the older kids, Brandon and Amelia. Good times were had by all.

But the highlight of the trip was getting to stay with, and visit with our best friends. Kyler had so much fun playing with his best friend, Brayden. And, all the kids had so much fun together. We miss them all so much! That has been one of the hardest things about moving away. :(

We got home Monday evening after a full trip.  Now we are missing our friends again!
