Life as we know it

Is about to change. After almost three years of living in our house they are finally building on one of the empty lots next to us. As weird as it will be to have a house next to us we are very excited about not dealing with all of the weeds coming from the empty lot. Things seem to be moving right along with it, one day they dug the hole, the next day they built the layout for the foundation, and then they poured the foundation. Can’t wait to go home today and see what they have done. Craig was able to find out that it will be the same model as our house, but it won’t have the same elevation and the layout is opposite ours. Just hope that their house is up far enough so we aren’t looking into each other’s kitchen or dining room windows.

On another note, Craig had another doctor’s appointment yesterday and wasn’t too happy to find out that he will need to do another six weeks of physical therapy. He still has swelling around his knee and his quad muscle isn’t back to full strength yet. Fingers cross that this will be his last round of PT and that the pain will all go away soon.

Photo Gallery

// May 9th, 2010 // No Comments » // Updates

Woohoo.. I worked really hard this weekend to get a new photo gallery working on the site with the current theme. Had to “tweak” a few things to get it just right, but I think that it turned out well. There is even a “widget” to display random photos from the entire gallery. In order to get everything over to the new format I had to remove all of the photos, but I am working on getting everything back online. I started with the photos from 2009, so you can now check out all of the photos that we have from the Woodward Dream Cruise. I’m hoping that I will be able to get some of the videos from the cruise posted as well. With any luck I will be updating the site more often.

Another Knee Update

// April 21st, 2010 // 1 Comment » // General, Health

I’m happy to report that Craig is nicely recovering from his knee surgery. On Saturday he had a bit of a set back when Kacey decided she just had to see what the delivery woman had brought for Craig to open. Unfortunately neither of us remembered to keep her away from his leg so she managed to put her paw right in the middle of all his sutures. It caused so much pain that even the pain meds weren’t helping.

When the pain didn’t go away on Sunday he was worried that the tendon had been ruptured, so he called his doctor who assured him that as long as he was able to lift his leg that it was probably just irritated. By Monday afternoon the pain had gone down quite a bit and today he is moving around a lot better. He has an appointment next Wednesday to have the sutures removed and we are both hoping that this will be the end of all his pain. I’d like to send a big, big thank you out to Don, Pete & Mom for all of the last minute help in getting mom out to the house to take care of Craig this week.

Happy Birthday Don!
