Great Day at Pedal 4 Possible

Jean Anne, Sean and Kevin at finish line

Jean Anne and Sean rented bicycles (and bought bike shorts) at the Denver REI and arrived in Boulder ready to ride. The weather was PERFECT; cool and sunny. The ride took them through the rolling hills around Boulder, Louisville and back. They rode the 50K route. Kevin traveled to the event with a group of Craig patients and enjoyed the festivities while Jean Anne and Sean rode and he was there to cheer them on at the finish line. We all enjoyed a great post-ride lunch and celebration. We especially enjoyed the all fruit, gluten and dairy free ice cream; both Kevin and Sean went back for seconds! It was also fun watching all the adaptive "high tech" three wheel bicycles and their riders...they move FAST!!

It's finally snowing here in Colorado and we're stuck inside, so why not update the blog?!? Many of you have asked "when are you going to update the blog?" so hang on, this will be a long one. The Sparknotes version is...we had a wonderful holiday season traveling to California for both Thanksgiving and Christmas and then back to Colorado to continue to focus on Kevin's rehab. In between we're getting back to the "real life" as best we can traveling and spending time with our kids. Thanksgiving 2019 Home sweet home! We traveled to California for Thanksgiving. Kevin was happy to be in his own home for the first time since August 1st. We were greeted by a beautiful "Welcome Home" banner courtesy of our wonderful friends and neighbors. All three kids and Sinna were home to celebrate Thanksgiving. We feasted on all the traditional Thanksgiving dishes, sharing the day with the Schnebles, Fators, Haneys and Marie Astrup. T...

Labor Day

Jenn & Jean came to visit Kevin spent the morning with two colleagues from Health Advocate, Jenn and Jean. We all enjoyed a super-fantastic homemade peach pie from Jenn’s grandmother 's recipe. Jenn was also celebrating her largest ever sale while at Health Advocate. Meanwhile our amazing neighborhood in Irvine had a "pot party" in our yard. It was bring your own pot and take some succulent cuttings from our yard. Look at the beautiful arrangements they made while maintaining our yard. Thanks to all who helped!

Rain & Visitors!

Sorry these updates are a little out of order. On Sunday September 8th, we sat outside watching the pouring rain and hail. Only the people from California will understand why....we never see this kind of rain or hail. Kim Morse came to visit for dinner on Sunday and then again on Tuesday Sept 10. Carolyn arrived on Monday September 9th. Kevin enjoyed introducing Carolyn to the nursing staff and all his therapists. They enjoyed Turkish food with Jess and Kim and Thai food with Sean and Jenn. It's raining, it's pouring!!! Rain is so cool! It's raining out so, we had pizza with Kim in the lobby Jess Dallas' friend Jenny works in the PEAK gym at Craig and was looking for him...small, small world! Kim Morse, Jess Dallas, Carolyn & Kevin enjoying Turkish food No question where her curly hair and smile come from....happy to see each other!
