We are leaving tomorrow for Houston. I can hardly believe it has been almost three months! Our flight out is at 7:30 pm, so we should be in Houston by 9:00pm. I have scans starting at 8:00 the next morning, so please keep us in your prayers! THANK YOU!!!

Hello!
Wow, this summer has flown right by. I can't believe it is the end of July already! We go back to Houston next Tuesday, July 31st. Not sure how long we will be there, at least a week and a half. I am hoping to be back before the start of school on August 16th. I will be having scans again as well as visiting with several doctors. I have an appointment with a genetics Doctor also. I am hoping to have my central line put in for the transplant while we are there also. As of now, we will be going back to Houston the middle of September for the SCT. That is when we will be down there for 2 months. All is still well with me. I am still a bit tired as my blood counts are still down, but it hasn't stopped me from doing what I have wanted to. Raisa and Larson have sure kept me busy this summer! Tonight is opening night for Narnia and both of the kids are in that and it runs until Sunday. Saturday is the League Swim Meet that Raisa will be in. That will be her last swim meet for the season. Raisa is excited to try out for The Sound of Music next month. That will be the fall musical put on by Darla Strecker and Mark Gard at F.K.H.S. Sounds fun!
Don and Shelly have closed and moved into their new home. Thank you to those who bought them a gift or sent a card to them. I know it meant alot to them. I am so proud of how this town is handled the flood and all the displaced families. Way to go!
That's all that's new for now. We will post next week after we get the scans. Please keep us in your prayers!

Thank you all for your interest in helping Don and Shelly. I have several of your emails saved and will be calling you! I am making up a list of things they are needing and if anyone would like to help out, PLEASE CALL ME AT 251-8546, or email me at: kaseyhoggatt@sbcglobal.net
They have purchased a new home and will be closing next Thursday, but will have nothing from their old house to move into it. Kevin and I are planning a house warming party (or BBQ) for them in the very near future. Call me if you are interested. If you can't make the party, but still want to help them, call me!!! I will be calling those on my list when we decide a date.
The kids and I have been helping out the shelters around town with donations of food, clothes and toys. We bought a bunch of bubbles and blowpops for the kids in the shelters too. I know my kids have really enjoyed helping out. They even picked out certain stuff they wanted to donate. Larson picked out Dora the Explorer toothpaste for the kids who don't like "grown up toothpaste" and children's character toothbrushes. He also wanted to buy some new underwear (Cars) for the boys and Princesses for the girls. Raisa bought some crayons, coloring books, Rice Krispie Treats and cheese and cracker treats for the kids. They also picked out Chips and dip, Pringles, Peanuts and beef jerkey for the National Guard. Like I said, they really enjoyed helping out. We will check back with the shelters next week to see if they are needing anthing new. I feel blessed to be in a position to be able to help. I am so sorry all these people have to go through this.
Thank you for all the well wishes for Don and Shelly and family. It brings them comfort knowing people are here to help!

~flooding~
Can you all believe this is happening????? Wow. For those of you wondering, yes, my inlaws house is flooded. We are still not sure how high, as there have been conflicting reports. Some say it is over the roof, others say above the windows, but not to the attic yet. They really didn't think they would flood and did not take much out with them. They did, however put some things in the attic, so we are PRAYING it has not gotten into the attic. They are all staying here with us for the time being. Not sure what the future holds yet. I hope the water will recede soon so we can at least get back to the house to check it out. Prayers to all of you that have been affected by this flood and oil spill.
