Semi-Formal

Sawyer and Maya






We had a few minutes of worry on Friday afternoon that perhaps Sawyer wouldn't be able to attend the semi-formal after getting his blood test results. His counts were pretty low so we checked with the clinic and sighed with relief when they said it was okay. They're really good about encouraging their patients to stay connected with their friends.
Mark and I drove Sawyer to Maya's house to take pictures only to find out that she was still at Swain Ski Slopes, being tended by the ski patrol after having fallen and twisted her knee. She's on the Alfred-Almond varsity ski team and they were just finishing up with a race. Fortunately, it's not a bad injury but it was sore enough that she needed to keep it wrapped and use her crutches. Once she got home, she changed into her pretty red dress (her parents had graciously bought Sawyer's tie to match), we took some photos and dropped them off at school. The dance started at 7 pm and was over at 10 pm. They arrived shortly before 9 pm. It was actually a good thing since Sawyer wasn't planning/expecting to stay for the whole event anyway, and this helped give them a structured time frame!
Sawyer has talked with Maya today and found out that her knee is feeling a bit better, and we hope that it continues to improve quickly.
