Friday Night Lights








It's football season.
Is there anything better?
Not if your name is Meyer!

  1. I agree football makes almost everything better. Did you watch those Seahawks pull it out today? Great pictures of the Meyer's Guys! The 23rd is the date you were wondering about in September.

  2. The Chargers are back in the saddle.

    In 1995 when Steven was 5 months old the Chargers went to the Super Bowl for the first and only time.

    It was exciting, the whole town was so into it, banners everywhere, everyone decorated their cars.

    Hubby and I were watching the last playoff game in a bar with baby Steven in an infant seat (just goes to show what kind of parents we are).

    My sister got a pink lightning bolt tatooed on her butt that year.

    Good memories.

    Kenny looks so much like Dave it's eerie.

    Hope you are well. Healing is a journey, not a destination.

    Peace.

  3. Rock on Meyer boys!! Stacy and I were just going over sweet memories of Fall football in Walla Walla and how many of our fondest memories are tied to it. Some are more fond for me than her like the time I had to drive 90+ mph to get back from Kennewick for Christian's birth...Dave and I always laughed about how he tried to talk me out of going to the game, but like the "old pro father" I said, "nah, she's not having a baby tonight"..ahh the folly of youth - good thing I made it back in time!!!

    I sure hope to get up there for a few games, just waiting for God to sell the house! Tell Kenny we said, "GO 'HAWKS!" :o)
    Love you guys!

Kyle

Tomorrow is January 2. One of the five happiest days of my life. It's the day Kyle was born. Dave was so excited. All through the pregnancy, Dave was sure this was a girl. He bought this little pink sleeper. He was just sure that Kyle was a girl. Actually, he was sure it was a girl all four times! But if he were to be a boy, his name was to be Kenny or Erik. Kenny or Erik. Erik or Kenny. We went back and forth. Dave said, "Oh, it didn't matter anyway, since Amanda Loree was going to be born." A few days before Kyle was born, we had an ultrasound, because there had been so much confusion on his due date (turned out he was 3.5 weeks overdue!), and we discovered he was a boy! A boy! We were amazed. And suddenly decided to name him Kyle. Don't ask me why or how. It just happened. Dave's brother, Bob, was in town for the weekend. I'd had a lot of contractions on Dave's birthday, he was hoping that Kyle would be born on his birthday, but it didn'

Tumor Board

Tuesday, August 17, 2004 1:13 PM CDT We met with doctors at Harborview yesterday. Dave has a new growth in his right frontal lobe. This new growth is very small, but it was not evident at his MRI in May, and shows on the MRI in July. It's quite scary that it has grown so quickly, and is in a new place. It's also scary that it grew while Dave was on temodar (chemo). The doctors from the tumor board are recommending gamma knife. Gamma knife is high intensity radiation that is very accurate and focused on the tumor growth. There are 201 beams aimed at the tumor. (See the main page for a link to information about gamma knife, you have to scroll to the bottom.) On Thursday, August 19, 2004, Dave will undergo gamma knife at Harborview in Seattle. We are hoping that this will halt the growth of the tumor. He will go into the hospital at 7:00 am and they will place a halo or frame around his head, by screwing it into his skull (ouch! They will give him some IV pain meds). They took x-r

Goodbyes

So I had my first Walla Walla goodbyes. The first was my eye doctor, Dr. Poffenroth. He's taken care of my eyes for 25 years. He's more than just an eye doctor.  He's a caring person and a friend. As I left my last appointment, he handed me a card with a referral to a friend of his who practices in Port Angeles. I looked at the card. And realized...I won't see him again. I've been living in a bit of denial. I know.  Big surprise. With all the excitement and chaos of moving, And all the stress of living in limbo, I somehow missed that I'd be leaving some things some people behind. I know I'll be back often. To see my kids and the new grandbaby, friends and family. This fact allowed me to forget... there are some I won't see. Even though we promise to keep in touch, Life has a way of getting busy. Good intentions and all that. I  have written many times about Walla Walla. It's a magical place. Safe, nurturing. I never thou
