a few pics from the day of dad's operation

Hi there
I just took a few pics of dad after we got him home from the operation- and then when we redressed the bandages so you could have a feel for what we've been experiencing this past week. He will feel so much better we're hoping with that tear fixed. The Doctor printed out the operation proceedures and what they did.. we don't understand most of it but we get the idea that it was a terrific Idea to have had it done and now he is on his way to recovery and full activity so we can hike and stuff this summer Horray. (:

three years ago...was Bryan's car accident

Hi family as you remember its been three years since Bryan was hit at the light by the golf course and so on this day every year I like you to reflect with me the many blessings our Heavenly father has given us. Both with sparing Bryan and also the many times he has blessed each one of us in situations. I'm so grateful for tender mercies and for his seeing fit to protect Bryan that January night.

dad's knee operation

dad's knee operation seems to have been a big success he was operated on as you know last Thurs by Dr. West. and when we went to the physical therapy yesterday and met with the Dr. West again --both seemed to think that it was going along great. dad has been exercising it faithfully since the operation and is regaining his strenghth in the knee and overall physically.
keep remembering him in your prayers.
