Hello All,
We are half way into chemo #2. Mark is wearing his pump with chemo infusing until tomorrow. He is pretty drained, but overall not feeling to horribly, so that is a blessing. The last week has been kind of crazy. Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes for my dad. He was sick and spent several days in the hospital this past weekend. We need a complete recovery for him as well as many others we have added along the way. Also, over the past week, I have learned of three men Mark's age who have all been diagnosed with very serious illnesses, one of which I cared for in the hospital. I just want to pray for all of them and their families that God brings them peace as they begin their journey to better health.

And on a brighter note.....The boys (Austin and Landon) have chosen this weekend to sell their home baked sweets to raise money for the Relay for Life. They are baking up a variety of treats and will have them for sale at Posada Pots on Saturday, March 7th.

David and Nelda so graciously allowed them to come when they are open on the weekend. The weather is supposed to be great. The high is in the 80's. It will be a perfect day for everyone to come out and see the boys. Abby will probably still has a few hugs for sale as well! I am hoping Mark will feel well enough to go out and soak in some rays also. The web site above will give directions to the location. If you are getting ready for spring and summer outdoors, you really ought to make a trip there to see all of the neat things they have. You can find many of them on their website as well.

Don't forget the Relay for Life coming April 3rd and 4th to Archer City. There is still plenty of time to participate, or just plan to come out and see the festivities.

Love to all, Missy
