Lunch and Shopping!






Today Kolby was feeling well enough to go to lunch with me and some of my girlfriends. It was so nice for Kolby to get out of the house. We ate at the Spicy Pickle and Kolby ate almost all of her food. She still has sores on her tongue and in her throat, but she was a trooper and she didn't let it keep her down. Then we went shopping. We went to Kohls and Target. Kolby picked out a few fun items and then she was done. Her lower back started to hurt and she was tired so she wanted to go home. Once she got home, she crashed. It was so nice for Kolby to take a little break from her meds and go out and have fun, and feel like Kolby again.

    Yes, Leah, it was quite a day. I am so glad that Kolby wanted to go. It's amazing how much better she feels without the steroids. She still gets tired pretty fast, but we had a fun day, and those days are always embraced. Thanks for your loving comments. We love reading them. Everyone's comments make our day. Sometimes they even make us cry.
    Thanks Leah.
    We love ya, Dana & Family

Father's Day

Today was a great day for our family. Kolby went to church. It was a challenge , but it was really important for Kolby to go to church today with her dad. She got up, got ready and she looked beautiful. I really wish I would have taken pictures of the girls with their dad, but we were in such a hurry to get off to church that I forgot. Next time I will for sure. She was pretty emotional at church. It was a lot for her to get ready and go to church for the first time in a while. She wanted to arrive a few minutes late, and leave a few minutes early. It is really hard for Kolby to see people, only because of all the different emotions she is feeling right now. She gets very emotional when people hug her and express their love and support. She loves it, but right now, she cries every time she has a new visitor or sees people.

A Very Generous Gift!

Brinley Truman, an eight year old girl in our ward and a dear friend of our family over heard her parents discussing Kolby and their desire to make a donation to "Keeping Kolby." Brinley asked her parents, Tom and Taralee, what they were talking about and Taralee explained to Brinley that they were going to donate money to the Cramptons because they wanted to show them that they love them and also because all the medicines and procedures that Kolby has to have cost a lot of money. Brinley told her parents that she wanted to give her money too. She went into their kitchen, climbed on the counter and got her money off the top of the fridge. When she got down she handed her mom 5 one dollar bills, 4 nickles, and 7 pennies. Her mom told her that she didn't have to give her money and that they would donate money as a family and Brinley said, "No, I want to use this!" Taralee told her that she should keep her money since she doesn't get money very often and they d...

ONE YEAR CANCER FREE!!!

I am beyond blessed! I finally hit my one year mark on May 22, 2012. After going through chemo for a year and waiting for the those cancer cells to be gone, I have been free from it for a whole year! I cant even begin to tell everyone how excited i am! For my one year, I did some of my favorite things. I went to lunch with Kylie at Panda Express, Outback for dinner with my dad and Gabby and then went and got ice cream at Baskin Robbins! :))
