Congenital Heart Defect Awareness Week


So make note that Feburary 7-14 is the week to spread awareness of congenital heart defects. It is estimated that up to 40,000 babies are born each year in the U.S. with congenital heart defects. That's a astounding number of babies! Despite these statistics, newborns and teen-aged athletes are NOT routinely screened for Congenital Heart Defects. Many cases of death in young teen athletes are caused by undiagnosed CHD's and Childhood Onset Heart Disease.

SNOW DAY!!!!



Well, they were forcasting just rain for us, but we got at least an inch! All of the kids were so excited. They were out and about in the neighborhood this morning before 9a.m. It was also Brayden's first snow. Last year we didn't get anything so he was quite impressed. Austin was happy to miss a day of school!
