All is getting back to normal

  This how we started off a few weeks ago. Tom in for surgery for his Achilles tendon repairer. Good new is, two weeks later and he is doing well all the bandages are off and the scar will be minimal, he should be back to all of his old activities in three to four months. Thank you for all your prayers.

  We are doing good, not much on the home front right now, but lots of plans for the future. A trip to Italy in just a few short months and then we will come home to celebrate Thomas turning into a man, yes, our dear sweet Thomas will be 18 yrs. old this year and we are going to be making it a BIG celebration so if you can be here for that the more the better.

Short and sweet today. But we must count, Tom surgery a total success, and Vacation on the horizon. Spring is in the air with lots of great weather, and sun shine, the kids were in shorts this week, and I took the electric blankets of the bed. The dogs got a bath and I can't wait to get new patio furniture and start BB Que season.

A big thanks to Rick French for the thumb war dudes, seen in the pic above.

keep thinking about your Savor, and counting your blessings,

well hello to all

We have had a very busy week. It started with a soccer game on Monday night. The boys, Tom, Thomas, and Joseph are on an indoor, Monday night, men's soccer league here in Fredericksburg. We, well they had their first game a pre season game and well not three minutes into the game, Tom snapped his Achilles tendon. At the time we didn't know it was all the way torn but after a visit to the ER, and then to the Orthopedic doctors, and an MRI, we have concluded it is completely torn. So this up coming Wednesday he will go into surgery to have it reattached. Needles to say Tom will have a two week vacation from work and actually three including this week. He is doing really good and we are handling this new set back with a lot of grace form God.

I am sure many of you are asking how will this impact your trip to Italy which you have already bought tickets for? The surgeon has said no need to cancel the trip and Tom will more than likely be on crutches while we are there and may need to take it easy while on vacation.

so please keep him and the rest of us in your prayers.

Oh and I didn't even get any get pictures of the game. What a bummer I was so worried about my man that the photos well they didn't turn out so great so I will post some from the next game which hopefully ends in less pain and frustration.

In all there were a few Blessings, Tom is going to get some really great time at home with all of us, they did win the game, and now we know were the hospital is located here in our new town.

love you all, and don't forget to count your Blessings,

Candy
