Finally....GOOD NEWS

So as you know we have been waiting for what seems like forever to know something about the purchase of our new home. Last night we got A e-mail and found out we got approved,There are still A couple hoops to jump through but.....It looks like we will be closing on our new house on November 5th just 5 days before our anniversary...How cool is that... So please continue to keep us in your prayers.

Saturday night Nick and I had A Halloween party to go to,I absolutely love dressing up...Nick not so much. I am always pretty set on making our Halloween costumes, It is so much more fun that way. We have been trying to come up with something for weeks and FINALLY I found it. I thought it was too funny especially since I have A slight addiction to Facebook.
I was Facebook and Nick was A like button
We had a lot of fun and got A lot of compliments on our costumes. Unfortunately Nick forgot to take his enzymes with breakfast so pretty early in the night he got A really bad stomach ache. I absolutely hate it when he gets these because obviously they are REALLY painful,Sometimes it scares me.Thankfully he woke up this morning and felt a lot better.

Amazing News!!!

I bet you thought I was gonna tell you something about the house....

Nope EVEN BETTER!!!!
This may be A lot of mumbo jumbo for most of you.....Bare with me

Vertex Pharmaceuticals announced the initiation of the clinical trial for both of their drugs,VX-809 and VX-770.These two drugs are focused on the underlying cause of Cystic Fibrosis which is the defective or missing CFTR proteins.

The VX-809 drug is the one that targets the DeltaF508 mutation which is one of the mutations that Nick has and is also the most common.Both of these drugs are in phase 3 and they hope to have results in early 2011.

This news is SO exciting and brings up so many emotions of Joy and Hope.Just the thought that Nick would be free of this every day struggle leaves me speechless. With that being said I can honestly say I wouldn't change the past and that we have had the experience of Nick living with CF. It has made him A better person and me more humble in being his wife.It has taught me what life is REALLY about and has simply made us better people.It has given us something to fight for and the want for tomorrow and thankful for when it comes.

Keep praying that this trial will continue to go as well as it has and then remember to be thankful for the lessons this disease has given us. The good with the bad.

It know it has been A little while since I posted anything,Nick and I have been consumed with this whole buying A house thing. I never imagined it would be such A waiting game but we will know something hopefully by Friday.In the meantime Nick and I are going kinda crazy and cant stop watching the DIY network and HGTV.
Yesterday was my little brother Cameron's 15th birthday!!! I cant believe he is already 15 yall,I mean it was just yesterday that I was blessed with my first sibling. I couldn't be prouder, He is one amazing young man and has A heart of gold. I cant see what the future holds for my little brother,Ladies Watch out!! He is really into skateboarding and is quite good I might add,So he had his party at Kona skate park.
Then last night we went and visited Nicks sister and her family.They bought our cute little nephew his Halloween costumes and he is just TOO CUTE!!
I cannot believe how big this little guy is getting SO QUICK! He is crawling around all over the place and has such A great personality. Courtney and Chuck got him A skeleton costume and A vampire costume, He looks so cute in them both but my favorite was the skeleton costume.I cant wait to go with this little guy to the pumpkin patch and take some cute pictures.
