News From Vaun and Anya

Everyone here wishes Kate a happy birthday---Nicki and Owen and Henry and Grandpa. Grandma was at the party and had fun helping. The little girls loved the dancing and the party was a big hit!
We haven't heard from Tyson for a while. He tried to call a couple of nights ago, but we couldn't get to his call fast enough. Nicki's been carrying the phone with her everywhere she moves in the house.
We talked to MelRae and David in New Zealand and as you can read in their blog, they're having a great time making a big difference already. They really are amazing people.

Dad is going to go in for a biopsy early in June. His PSA is high. (blood count having to do with the prostate) and he needs to check for prostate cancer. Don't panic, prostate cancer is one of the best cancers when it comes to survival. The biopsy is a simple procedure that should just take fifteen minutes in the doctor's office. He's been told he can go back to work soon after, but we're going to talk him into coming home. Right now he's watching the Jazz play their second game against San Antonio and I'm guessing by his groans that they're not doing so great.

I (Grandma) am going to be selling at the Violin Institute again this year. If anyone wants to help and earn a few dollars, let me know. It'll take place the week of June 18th.

Good luck to Christy and Les at Ikea tomorrow!

Darrin had mentioned a few weeks ago if you were going to be doing institute he would want to help out. I'll tell him you're doing it. He *loves* to listen to "Twinkle Twinkle" over and over on the violin all day!! :)
