So much has happened since I last blogged over a year ago, that I'm not really sure where to start. It was definitely a busy year, but overall good. Let me see if I can recap (very quickly) for you.
Dec '09, we had a big family Christmas at my grandparents in Kansas. My now husband and his daughter were able to join us. We all had a blast! :)
Jan '10 Kevin decided he needed to break his ankle and have surgery to place plates and screws. My grandfather also passed away. Kevin was unable to go to the funeral with me because of his ankle. It was hard to say goodbye, but his 90+ years were great ones! I love you, Granddaddy and miss you everyday.
Feb - Mar '10 Kevin decided he needed to get really sick and spend over a week in the hospital. We celebrated his recovery by getting married on March 12! It was a simple wedding at the JP's, but we are married and very happy.
Jun - Aug '10 Kevin's daughter got to spend the summer with us. We bought Six Flags season passes and made it out there several times. I don't remember it being that hot when I was a kid! Thanks, Mom and Dad for putting up with the heat and the asphalt so we could have fun!!
Aug - Sep '10 We moved into a beautiful 3 bedroom house that we are currently renting. We love having the space. In September, I went to spend some time with my sister in OKC to help take care of her kids while she had her hip replaced. I was so glad to be able to help and am grateful that she is doing wonderful with her new hip! :)
Oct '10 Kevin's shoulder started hurting. We started the process through his primary care doctor and finally got it squared away.
Nov '10 We spent Thanksgiving in Waco with my parents, my aunt, and my grandmother. We had a good meal at Cracker Barrell and even better conversation and catching up. His daughter came down Friday after Thanksgiving and we spent the rest of the weekend with my parents decorating for Christmas.
Dec '10 Let's see, what all has happened this month? Well, Kevin had MRI's on his neck and shoulder. The docs sent him to therapy and he wasn't improving. They decided to do steroid injections on his neck and then he had shoulder surgery a few days later. He had some bone spurs and arthritis they cleared up and is healing well. We don't have any big plans for Christmas, but it will be a good one.
Work for me is crazy busy. We are in a constant state of change, but I'm at three years as a nurse now. It's hard to believe that I started this blog before nursing school! Yikes!! I may be changing my blog a little. I've been getting lots of spam. I promise to let you know where I go! :) I hope that the holiday season is a blessed one for all of you. And Happy Holidays from our house to yours!
