Another update

This has been an interesting week. Taylor has been house sitting for a friend so we have seen very little of her. I think she is testing the waters of living on her own. Mitchell has been working diligently on a movie he and his friends are making, I was very busy getting ready for the Tempe Town Lake July 4th celebration ( I was in charge of al lthe traffic issues; what a mess that turned out to be!) and Angela and Kristi have been getting ready for vacation. Kristi leaves for Colorado with her grandparents today and Angela and I are heading up the California coast on the Harley.

Stewart? Oh yeah.....Stewart. He spent the last week in the hospital. He went to the MTC doctor Monday evening because he noticed his urine was the color of Pepsi. Being the sharp kid he is, he realized that was a bad thing....The doctor hospitalized him that night and he satyed there until Friday. Basically he had overdone himslef and his body was releasing alot of bad junk into his kidneys. He was attached to IV's for the week and all is better now.

The blessing in this was he was allowed to accept phone calls and visitors. We got to talk to him whenever we wanted and he was visited several times by family and friends in the Provo area. I told him I did not know too many missionaries that got to take a vacation from their mission. He said that although it was different, it was definatley not a vacation.
Below is a cell phone picture taken by Justin while Stewart was on the phone with us right after he was admitted to the hospital.

He has two more weeks at the MTC and then he is off to Chile. Thats it for now!

Glad to hear Stewart is feeling better. What a freak thing to have happen but what a great story it will be for him to tell.
