Brent Pugh (Chelsey's husband) came to town for some meetings so we decided to gather at Shriner's and spend what little time we could with him. It wasn't very long, but it was so great to see him. Ammon was delighted to greet Brent. Brad Pugh, Brent's brother and his wife and two sons also came with Brent. It felt like a family reunion - and it was of sorts.
We got up there quite early to avoid the nasty commute crush, so Adam and Gillian played some pool and Kaitlin and I attempted to play a game of our own. Shriner's has a huge domed play area and it's lots of fun for family when they come to visit. There's badmiton, vollyball and basketball besides arts and crafts that occur several times a day. It was great to be able to take Ammon out there in his bed. He was fascinated with the echoes and kept trying to make echoes. If I can get Jess to help me load the two videos we took of Ammon, I'll get those set up. He sang a song from "Camp Rock" for us - clear as a bell.
What a great night and great relief to see this kid so clear-headed and happy - and tube free.

This one if for you, Geoffrey - your dad riding up a very cool elevator!

Kaitlin doesn't look so certain that this is the "guy for her."

Ammo, you're not shirtless anymore! I'm glad you're not connected to tubes anymore. That sure looks like a fun place to hang out.
My girls have the sniffles. We hope they get better soon, because they are anxious to come visit you again! They were sad they didn't get to come last night!
We love you!
Jen, Abby, Leah and Lauren!
Ammon, thanks for visiting with Brent! He said you looked great and happy. I'm so glad!! Shriners looks like a cool place! Monsters Inc is one of my favorite kids movies. Brent has a package to drop off to you a little later too!
The nurses made you put a shirt on I see. They just couldn't handle your manliness, could they. You look good, bud. Caleb, Dan, Jared, Brenden, Alyssa, and Scott say hello and that they hope you get well soon.
