UPDATE ON DAVID &

THE BOYS AT THE PARK WITH FRIENDS

We visited the spinal doctors yesterday and the good news is that David still does not need to have surgery. The not so good news is that David will have a MRI next Thursday to determine if their is a 'tear' next to the vertebrae. If this is the case, he will have to wear the brace even longer than the 2 or 3 months they initially stated. We are also scheduled for next Wednesday to get his cast on his left arm. They wanted to wait a little longer for the bone to set better before doing the cast. All, I have to say on this subject is that I sleep next to David and for the life of me couldn't figure out this nasty smell...and low and behold it's his arm. Ugh! Another 4 to 6 weeks is going to be so delightful. So, if anyone has any suggestions - please let me know..:)

David's Snowboarding accident..:(

SNOWBOARDING ENDS FOR 2008 - Remember kids always wear your HELMET!
David trying to jump a 20ft or 30ft jump according to Nick who saw it all..

Inside the helmet all the padding just fell apart

As most of you already know, David had an unfortunate accident last weekend which put him in the hospital overnight. David will be getting his cast on his left arm to start the mending process of his fractured wrist this Friday. We also have a doctor's appointment with our regular doctor to determine if we need to visit with a neuro surgeon. I don't think that will be necessary as David is not experiencing any tingling sensation to his bottom half. He probably won't be out of the brace sometime in May. He was really lucky and we are all very thankful that he is here with us and that we can still enjoy his beautiful spirit! Thanks to everyone for your thoughtfulness! The chicken dinner Suzanne was delicious! Erin thanks for the cookies and tea bags. David is getting plenty of tea..:). Also, Hoppee - thanks for adding the calories to my waistband...the pastries are so yummy... Wellsfargo also remembering David with a beautiful plant - TY.

Break from School

Kids on break for a few weeks and enjoyed some sleigh riding last Friday. They are up snowboarding today at Copper Mountain. We go up to Canada later next week - Here we come Whistler! Happy Valentines.

Check out my Slide Show!

Nick's science project

So, it's been awhile. We've been up snowboarding with friends last weekend and just waiting on the pictures as I forgot my camera. We had a great weekend filled with sun. The boys enjoyed snowboarding and we visited Breckenridge to see the annual ice sculptures. The past few weeks Nick and I have been working on his Science project which will be displayed tomorrow in his class. We had to do it twice as Nick likes to rush through and not typically read the directions very carefully. The doctors should create a 'pill' for moms called the 'homework pill' so we don't have to stress out too much. :) Hope you are all well and dandy.
