The Snow Is Back

Just as our snow was totally melted and we could finally see grass and almost feel spring....it snowed again. We are currently in a blizzard...and peeved.

Meeting the Nephew

We just got back from a great weekend in Utah, seeing Tonya's family and meeting our new nephew, Liam. We played games, ate lots of food and candy, went to a comedy improv show, and went to Rachel's parent's house for Liam's blessing. We had so much fun and can't wait to see Ryan, Rachel, and Liam again in April.

Miracle of Miracles

As many of you know, Adam has been having severe issues with his knee. He tore his PCL in the summertime playing football (of course) and had to have it fixed. He had surgery where they put in a new ligament from a dead person (we're hoping an athletic black man's) and his recovery has been absolutely miserable for the last 10 months. Well, he's been having swelling and a lot of pain, so finally the doctor said this isn't normal something's gotta be wrong! They took an MRI and guess what they found?! A torn meniscus and a re-torn PCL (not his fault, because he hasn't been doing anything on it!) So, as we are still paying the medical bills from the last surgery, we decided to just buckle down and get another surgery! He went to the hospital, they cut him open again and put in a scope...and found NOTHING wrong but a little floating cartilage!! Answered prayers my friends!! Lesson learned: never be afraid to ask for a miracle!
Afterword: he just got home from his post-op appointment, removing the stitches and checking on his progress, and the doc freed him to do anything he wants! Upside: exercise....Downside: football starts Saturday (here we go again!!)

After his first surgery:

His MRI-yes those are the real screws holding him together:
