A Busy Week

When you sit in the same room at Shriner's for 3 1/2 hours, you get bored - photo above is the ceiling of the wheelchair room at the hospital. Shriner's has cool architecture.

Drinking his chocolate at the Garden Restaurant.

When Ammon saw the flag, he turned around and saluted it. Cute.

Last week was very busy for Ammon. As you all know, he was able to go to the Festival of Trees and was interviewed by KSL Channel 5. After that event, we took Gillian out to breakfast for her 21st birthday. Ammon drank chocolate milk and had a few bites of pancake (which he claims to like). We took Devin Minson, one of Ammon's friends, with us so he could participate in being a "star." After the breakfast we went over to Jen's house and hung out there for a couple of hours. Devin, Ammon and Kaitlin played some Wii games and had fun. We had an appointment at Shriners at 3:00 p.m. to have Ammon's wheelchair seat adjusted so we didn't want to make two trips up to SLC.

I had a free gift card that we used for lunch. Jim and I took Ammon up to the Garden Restaurant at the top of the Joseph Smith Memorial Building for lunch. He had chocolate milk again. We were able to get some good photos.

He sits up 100% better in the new seat he got at Shriner's. I wish he had had it done before his KSL interview but that's ok. All in all, Ammon had a fantastic week!!
