1 year diabetes-versary

One year ago today, Kade was diagnosed with T1 diabetes. A year ago today, I thought our lives were over (dramatic yes but honestly how I felt for a while). Today we celebrate that it wasn't the end of life. Most days feel perfectly normal and most people would never guess he has it. His life is perfectly normal and he's happy, sometimes we even forget :) Technology and modern medicine saved his life so today we celebrated living at the living planet aquarium and had slurpees. It was a good day. #prayingforacure

Diabetes Day Camp

Kade got to go to diabetes day camp today (and tomorrow). I LOVED hearing him so excited about all the fun and friends he made. He thought it was so great that he wasn't the only one checking blood sugars. Best money spent all summer! ❤️

Zoo

We finally made it to the zoo to see the new African exhibit. The kids were the most excited to see the lions. We thought we might get to feed the giraffes but they still weren't in the exhibit. We can't wait for that. Kylie even volunteered for a small show about different creatures.

Afterwards we picnicked at a park we found. The kids kept squeezing/smushing each other coming down the slide.

Park City Trip

For the fourth of July, we headed up to Park City for the weekend with Scott and Jenny's family. We went to the 4th of July Parade, then headed back to the condo we rented to swim. Jenni, Brickley, Grandpa and Grandma came up for the day.  Ellie was sick so Jenny didn't come up until Saturday night.

That night my shoulder was hurting so I stayed home with Carter, Paige and Jaxon who didn't want to watch fireworks.

On Saturday, we swam all morning.

Dad and Uncle Scott took all the kids except Kylie to go hiking. My shoulder joint was really hurting so I stayed home again.
