Scott and I helped out at the Tim Hess Memorial Scramble grilling hotdogs for the golfers. It was a lot of fun helping out.
Team Clough ready to celebrate their birdie putt.
After we were finished grilling hot dogs we went out to see the bench on the 18th tee. It was made and dedicated to Keith Bloom (Scott's Uncle) and William Sheaffer ( Scott's Dad)
It's like seeing Scott's guardian angels on his shoulders.
We went to Kings Island. It sure was hot that day but we enjoyed spending time with Grandma Sheaffer.
Noah got chased by a T-Rex while walking through the dinosaur park at Kings Island.
We went to Monster Bash in Butler PA.
We helped Brad celebrate his 20th birthday.
Emily had some Easter crafts for everyone who wanted to try them.
It was a raining day outside so Ethan and Noah hung out by the sliding door and watched everyone else during the egg hunt.
Last weekend Morgan and Emily were each in dance recitals. 
Twenty Two years ago today I married my best friend. Over the years we had our ups and downs but, I can still say I love Scott very much. This last week when I had to travel to Montreal without him, I realized how much I appreciate all the things he does to help out with Noah. He has always supported me in all the different things I have found to help Noah. When I first found ABR about 3 1/2 years ago he supported me even though at times he thought it seemed a little different and strange. We now have come to realize that its the best thing we have ever done for Noah.
After a long trip in the car we arrived at the new Ronald McDonald House. Its a lot nicer than the old one but you still had to park in the old parking lot. I'm sure glad my Mom and Dad were able to go with me and help me and stay with Noah when I needed to go get the van or take it back to the parking lot. 
This is I guess you could call the lobby or entry way. This where they had computers set up for us to use. 
This the one end of our room.

This Noah with two of the other families. 
It was a very busy 2 days of training. It was supposed to be 4hrs of training for 2 days. It ended up being 2 days of 8 and 10 hour days. I came away from the training with mental overload and Noah came away with I believe sensory overload. He woke up at 1am the first night and Saturday he didn't sleep at all. His poor little body couldn't settle down enough to fall asleep or even rest. When Noah doesn't sleep then I don't sleep. It made for a very hard time trying to drive home on Sunday. Thank goodness he slept really well Sunday night in Niagara and we made it home safely. 
52 years ago today my Mom and Dad got married. On the way home from Montreal I stopped at Niagara Falls. The place where they went on their honeymoon. I took this picture this morning. ( not sure why the camera stamped it 4/3) It was about 53 and a bit windy. Mom remembers it being about the same 52 years ago but, she said the falls were a bit more frozen then. 
This the American side. 
We got to Niagara on Sunday and walked down to the falls hoping to see them all lit up. They weren't :( On our walk back it started snowing huge snowflakes. We were all covered by the time we got back to our hotel.
