The AJ Update

Just wanted to say thanks again to Texas Roadhouse for doing this and all of our friends & family who supported it. As far as I know (I haven’t heard officially from TR as of yet), but I think they raised $350 for AJs expenses. Thank you so much.

Here is one from the Texas Roadhouse on Monday night. Sorry I don’t have more, but a dear friend of mine Lori of Portraits By Lori was making images for AJ, so I didn’t take many. A huge thank you to Lori for doing that.

Just found this and wanted to post. Dr. Chang is one cool Dr.!!!!

Here are a couple new pictures I took of AJ & Lucy. Will write and post more sooooon!

You may have heard a rumor by now and it’s true. We have another little member in the family. AJ fell in love with a little girl named Lucy this weekend at Gma Bev’s. She is part chihauhau and part papillon.

I think Lucy reminds him of another little dog we love named Gucci!

Here is AJ and Wyat holding the sisters

Here are some more pictures. Included in them are Dad, Uncle Mark, Uncle Mike and Grandpa Steve.

Here are a few from the first day of project treehouse:

Again, a huge thanks to Henry Poor Lumber

And they dedicated their winning season (no defeats) to AJ. Congrats to all of the Fut’ballers and especially Austin.

I also wanted to address a question we’ve been asked several times now, and that is where to send money for AJ’s trust.

Lafayette Savings Bank
PO Box 1628
Lafayette, IN 47902
765.742.1064
If you’re sending a check just make a note that it is for the AJ Marks Trust Fund

It is kind of a touchy subject for us which is why I’ve been loathe to post it. It’s not that we’re asking for this, we have people wanting it. We just want to assure you that every dollar is going to the welfare of AJ, the family, the hospital expense, the 2nd apartment expense and gas. The generosity of the community and the love we’ve received are so overwhelming, it reminds me of the movie: ‘It’s A Wonderful Life’. You don’t realize how wonderful your life is until a crisis or tradgedy like this happens. (BTW, IAWL, one of my all-time favorite movies in the world, and I don’t believe it’s just for Christmas either).

Anyway, the most important thing is prayer. It’s in His Hands.
