Ethan Mendenhall is a little boy in our neighborhood who just found out he has, Stage IV neuroblastoma Cancer. His family moved to Mesquite in September, and mine and Ginger's kids have played with him a lot. Ethan and his family went to Salt Lake City for his second round of Chemo, and while they were gone out side of there house was an empty Christmas tree. Ginger Slack decided it would be way fun to have the kids decorate ornaments for Ethan's special tree outside. We knew he wanted ornaments of BYU but we didn't know where to find them in Mesquite.
Instead we decided to make our own! 
Canyon, Gavin, Raeanna, Emma, & Mya all painted ornaments out of cookie dough. They had so much fun they each did about 10 of them. We made Jar lid ornaments and put pictures of the kids and also some of Ethan and his Family.
This is our completed Tree and all of the kids!
We just want to wish Ethan and his family a Merry Christmas and let them know we are always thinking of them and Praying for Ethan to stay STRONG and FIGHT this cancer.
