Okay - things are starting to settle down a bit. Hans is perking up. But, yesterday he had to miss his buddy's bday party. Shhh... we didn't remind him. Elle went, but now she's out with a stomach bug! Poor thing.I have just a couple of quick announcements or things I want to tell ya:
Check out this article: http://www.thecourier-online.com/site/news.cfm?newsid=19035267&BRD=1574&PAG=461&dept_id=532215&rfi=6 It's a story on Hans, Carlie, Will and Roman. The four kids fighting NB right here in the woodlands. The photo doesn't show up online, but I ran up to Randall's (grocery store-like Safeway to those on West Coast) and got the last copy. It is on the front page of the Sunday paper with a huge color photo of the four kids. We all got together on Thursday and I just ran Hans over to Charon's for the picture. I didn't want him spreading a possible virus to the other kiddos - it worked out okay. Thanks to Charon for doing a great job of making that article happen!
Also, we are Aunt and Uncle and First Cousins for the first time ever! Kev's sister Anna, gave birth to baby Emma Harvey this week! I'm so excited and I know Matt and Anna are proud new parents and Grandpa Dean and Grandma Diana are proud grandparents once more, just as Great Grandma and Grandpa Web are proud great grandparents once again! It's fun to have such a joyous event in the family to celebrate!! Welcome Baby Emma! I want to post your picture soon!!!
Finally, I want to post this picture of my Uncle Dean! I'm so proud of him for collecting pop tabs for the Ronald McDonald house. He only gets one soda a day, so he has been hard on the look out for all these others. Uncle Dean is Hans' godfather. I think it's cool that he has been collecting tabs for the RM House for years! He sent his most recent batch to Michael Smiley to support his cub scout troop's efforts to save up tabs for the RM house.
That's all for now! Thanks for all your posts, emails and calls after our rough week.

Congratulations to Anna, Matt and all of the Weberlings. It is nice for you all to celebrate baby Emma. I bet Elle is thrilled to have a new cousin and better yet that it's a girl!
Great picture of Dean and his pop tabs. He's been busy!
The newspaper article was great. Hopefully it will help bring awareness to pediatric cancer in the area.
Thinking of you all and praying that Hans has a better week!
Love, Kathy and Dale
It's been a few days since I've checked out here - wild times in the Woodlands! Awesome job raising money, collecting pop tabs, raising awareness in the paper, pitching in to help others - I admire all of you.
Michael and I are on Kauai and saw shooting stars yesterday morning (4am - timezone thing), wishing good health for all. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you for a nice, calm, healthy week!
Love Aunt Holly and Uncle Michael
(And, welcome baby Emma!)
I found a copy of this paper at work. If anyone would like to have the copy I will be happy to mail it out.
