July 25th Update

Yes, yes........it's been 10 days since my last update.  I will apologize for that now!  It's just been a little busy around here.
Briley's walking continues to slowly improve.  She still has a very noticeable limp when she walks, but that is to be expected.  The news crew stopped by last week and aired an update story on Briley this past Monday.  I will post a link to the story below.

Alicia and I went to a Rangers game with a couple of friends and without the kids!  This has been the first time both of us has been without the kids since the wreck and the first time the kids have stayed the night without at least one of us since last June.  It was nice to have some time for just the two of us!  The kids went to daycare and they loved it!  Briley more-so than Bryson, but they did good.  In fact, we thought Briley would be excited to see us after being gone for two days, but as soon as she saw Alicia come through the doors at daycare, she started crying.  She did NOT want to leave!!!!  She was having too much fun playing with the kids and doing projects!   Her legs were tired after two days of daycare and she's struggled with walking a little bit yesterday and today.
We are blessed that Briley has been progressing the way she has been.  She's been right on track in her recovery.  That's good, because things are about to get a little hectic and tough.  I'm starting Paramedic school this fall.  I was signed up and ready to start the school before Briley was diagnosed with leukemia, but of course, I had to drop the class.  I'll be gone every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday nights to class in Wichita for 2 semesters!  It's going to be rough, but ready to get it over with.
Briley has an oncology appointment Aug. 9th.  The nurses and doctors will be very excited to see her walking!  We appreciate everyone's support.
