We Survived!

We're back safe and sound from our road trip to Gypsum, Colorado.  The 16 hour drive with 3 kids and a puppy went much better than expected!  Jim's mom and sister were kind enough to open their home to us for the week.  We really enjoyed visiting with them, since we don't get to see them as often as we would like.  Jim was able to "remodel" his mom's chicken coop before the snow came, and the kids had a great time playing in the snow once it arrived. Thankfully, the snow only stuck around for one day.  Living in Colorado, Jim's family is tired of the snow, but it was a special treat for us!  Well, not "us", I mean the kids, I personally am not a big fan of snow. :) 

While there, we visited Jim's naturopath doctors that treated him back in January, for some cleansing and detoxing.  I even got in on the fun and had a foot bath detox. If only they would have polished my toes, I would have been set! After his appointments, we relaxed at the Glenwood Hot Springs.  It's pretty cool swimming in a huge pool of natural warm water, surrounded by snow covered mountains.  What an amazing experience. Although I will say, I have been to the hot springs in Steamboat Springs, CO, and they're even more amazing!

On the way home to California we spent a few days at Lake Las Vegas to thaw out.  What a beautiful place the Westin Lake Las Vegas is.  I would highly recommend it if you're ever in that area and want to stay somewhere that doesn't scream "Vegas". 

We needed a vacation from our vacation by the time we got home, but we're so thankful we were able to make the trip.  Last week, Jim had his weekly appointment with his functional neurologist and an appointment with the Bio dentist.  After the dentist reviewed his x-rays, it turns out he has no mercury fillings, so he his cleared for stem cell treatment.  Great news, so excited for him to start the treatment in 3 weeks! 

Speaking of stem cell, if you haven't checked out Jim's GoFundMe account lately, we are almost at our goal!  So amazing!  I honestly can not believe the amount of love and support Jim has received.  To say you are appreciated would be an understatement.  Thank you so much for joining the fight, how blessed we are to have each and everyone of you in our lives!  Stay tuned!  xoxo
