It's Ashton Gillin Day!

Here is the latest news about Ashton!  He is a sweet little guy that has endured 2 years of chemo, pokes, prods, scans and recently got his feeding tube removed.   It's a wonderful day for Ashton and his family.  They have come a very long way and endured alot of pain and sadness.  Thanks Gillins for your encouragement and support and we pray for many many more "Ashton Gillin Days"!  Thanks Ashton for your cute smiles that makes Emilie so happy every time she sees you!
Here is the first post I posted about Ashton.   Go leave some "love" on their blog!

September 2010 has come and gone with no family photo (my toes are proof that I was here for September 2010...need to work on handing my camera to others).  This is the best I have and I am totally okay with it.   September 2010 = chemo, school, homeschool, football, fly-in and baseball.  Life is good!

Giants Anthem, Erickson Style!

Yesterday was a great day in baseball history as the Giants won the 2010 World Series.  Emilie and I are still at SCVMC for rehab so we enjoyed the game here, while the boys and Nana watched the game at home.  The boys went nuts in the street, banging pots and pans and screaming with the neighbors. Good, good fun!  We are thrilled with the win, but are already missing baseball!  When's opening day?

While Emilie was out on a day pass this last Sunday, we made this video which is a take off Ashkon's video. (See previous post.  I still don't know who this Ashkon guy is.)  So fun.  Nicolas as Brian Wilson just cracked me up, although, I think the rally thong was getting to him. 

Backing up to Saturday. Emilie had a half day pass so we celebrated at Buca's with Nana, AV, Mike, Nick, Jen and Kate.  I so love my family even as crazy as we are.  Fake birthdays, baseball and pasta...all to celebrate life and family!
