Here is a picture of Amanda first learning how to ski, using outriggers to maintain balance and control. Once she got the hang of it, she was hopping on the ski lifts and heading to higher ground.
Also at the resort was a rock wall that Caleb and Amanda enjoyed climbing. These things are tough enough with two good arms and legs, let alone missing a leg! But, as you would imagine,
Amanda was scaling it anyway. :-)
It was also a lot of fun for Caleb to conquer. In this image, he is managing to come across a ceiling area (yes, like Spiderman) before continuing on up to the top of the wall.
Also, at some point there was a dance, where apparently
Caleb and Amanda got in on the Karaoke, and Amanda even gave them
some dancing lessons ... and yes, how to do the Worm. :-)
Finally .... the results of the scans showed stability in the lung spots, and a lung surgery will take place mid-February with the goal of removing as many as possible. This surgery will be followed by additional chemo.

We have been waiting for news from Houston. It is such a joy to see Amanda and Caleb having such a good time in Utah. We are so proud of them, as well as all our grandchildren.
Our prayers go out to you for the upcoming surgery.
It's so wonderful to see them having FUN! I don't know how Amanda does what she does! She is amazing! I will be praying that the mid-February surgery will go well! As always, a great bright spot in my life to share your family with you!
We Shumards LOVE the McDaniels!
XOXO!
Sherri, Mike, Heather & Jen
