Good Morning America

James has been invited to visit the Good Morning America show sometime this December. It sounds like he will be bringing his store manager Nathan, Katie Knopf and perhaps Abbie Knopf. Abbie was a 6th grader who took part in the Woodmoor Elementary Legacy Gift to James. This will be incredibly exciting for all of us!

ABC's The Doctor's Show

James will be on a new ABC show this fall called The Doctor's. There will be a local town meeting in October where anyone can come ask questions of James, the doctors, Katie Knopf, etc and then they will add his surgery to the show and broadcast it this fall. Stay posted for the Town Meeting information so you can attend if you like.

Dinner with James


I had James over for dinner tonight so we could connect and talk about all the exciting upcoming events. He filled me in on a lot of things I didn't know about and showed us his photos from Seahawks camp. We had the Peays, Richins and Gregson's over so it was lots of fun with everyone.
