Sledding and Christmas
Every year we go up to Shane's house to enjoy sledding down the mountain in his back yard, and a jump is always a must. The top pic is Nathan ducking just in time before a train of people plow into him.
Todd did a face plant in the snow and his face was frozen. The day we went sledding it snowed all night and they had 24 inches in there driveway and it snowed the whole time we were sledding
The tube train going off the jump. Sydnie, Geoff, Dexter, Maggie, Christopher and Lauren. We all had a great time.
Christmas morning santa brought the older boys Ipods and Nathan a Nintendo DS

MRI Results
You can see the lesions on the brain, they are the white areas that really light up. These are two different slices of the brain.
I know everyone has been waiting to find out if I actually have a brain inside my head, well it has been confirmed that there is in fact a brain, its not just a hollow space for rocks to bounce around in.
I had an MRI on Tuesday and the results all came back normal, meaning there are no new lesions and no active lesions. You can still see the old lesions as the have not gone away.
I have had three MRI's in the last 2 1/2 years and they have all shown the same results, NO NEW LESIONS, so the medication that I take every month is helping to keep it all under control.
I would like to thank you all for your continued support and prayers on my behalf.
Multiple Sclerosis can take its toll on people and there families, but I have been very blessed to not have the symptoms that can be debilitating for some. If I can walk and talk, I'm doing great!

What's going on?
Well, there hasn't been that much happening lately so I haven't updated our blog. The things that have happened are...
We had Thanksgiving with Grandpa and Grandma Silva and my brother and his family came up from Arizona, my kids were so excited to see there cousins, since they moved we haven't seen them much.
Geoff had a Thanksgiving choir concert which was wonderful. He also went to the turkey shoot for scouts and came home with the turkey or what Todd calls a large chicken for having the highest score in his troop.
Other than those few things our month hasn't been to eventful, will see what this one brings.
Happy Holidays!
