We hope everyone had a happy Valentine's Day yesterday. We enjoyed being home, and Gray and I even got to sneak away for two hours to go see a movie yesterday afternoon thanks to Big Daddy and Aunt Alex. Thanks so much for...

Just a quick post to let y'all know Keegan was discharged late last night. He's doing ok so far. I will update again later with more info. We are still working on getting a second opinion, so please continue to pray that...
