Soooo... this is Mandy here, to let you know that things-a been-a happening! We have a date set for surgery aka carving time... Halloween! (I ain't afraid of no ghosts!) We had a really encouraging meeting in Tucson last week with the surgeon (like a surgeon, cuttin' for the very first time...) Dr. McDonald and set everything up to take care of business.
We will be in Tucson for about 2 and a half weeks, hopefully hanging out with all those special sparklers at the Grand Canyon first for a few days before we head south.
**Dad and I went on a Colorado River trip through Cataract Canyon, and it was CRAZY. We were very fortunate to experience such wild beauty with such wild hominids!
**The Extreme Makeover Big Water Edition was a HUGE success and we want to thank everyone so much for donating time, food, love, and SWEAT to help us out. The place looks amazing, just like you! Coming from so far, willing to get down and dirty to help us is a true statement of character! THANK YOU!
Paul Louis, you are a crazy man & thanks to you know I know more about sheetrocking than I ever dreamed. Some is still stuck in my hair, no joke. Julie, thanks for all the chocolate cake breaks you 'forced' upon the guys!
**Wes & Alena, we miss you! We're glad you are feeling better because being sick is a pain in the BASS!
**Thanksgiving is going to be a theme party this year (wonder who thought of that)... Aliens and Indians. We have some special guests coming from California to initiate the festivities... can't wait to see you guys!!!!!!!
**Marcus/Dad/Cancer Man/UncleMarkyBaby is looking good, I am proud to report sightings of a moustache and other various hair outcroppings I've personally witnessed upon that beautifully shaped skull of his.
As usual, thank you for all of your thoughts, jokes (the funny ones only... good work Uncle Al), LOVE, laughs, and continual support. Could we do this without you?... I wouldn't want to find out.
xoxo
Mandy & CO
PS CONGRATULATIONS to Alison & Bill on their marriage (that is ballin'.)

Markie Babie,
Fall has finaly arrived. The weather has been cool and very fall like. I would assume that you are seeing changes there as well.
I never asked, are you a Dback fan. I would think not, more like a Dodger. Well any rate the Rockies are in the big show and the state of Colorado is going nuts. We expect you to be rooting for the boys in black and purple.
Laura and the girls are all well and send their love. We are all glad to here that you have a date.
Talk to you soon.

Oh, how I miss you all!! Rah rah ree, kick 'em in the knee, says Lazlo. Glad you're getting through the cocktail chemo and here's to a year from now, under your belt. We'll come a visiting but probably not soon enough to break in that awesome completed guest room.
Good night, my loving family!!

Wow, we didn't even know about this blog until today, and there we are in one of the pics! We can't thank Mandy enough for all she did for us before, during, and after the wedding. See that banner she's holding? She carried that thing for over a mile in our procession back to camp! We have so many great memories of that week, and can't wait to share them and some more pics at thanksgiving! We love you guys and are really looking forward to seeing you soon!

Hey,
Just wanted to let you know there is another family member out here reading. During the birthday party for your mother last Sunday, I almost got to speak to you on the phone, too many other Fuhrmans, I missed out. My family and I are thinking the best of thoughts and wishes for you and yours. Prayers of health and strength.
From Cali,
Your niece,
Nicky
