Clavicle Fracture
After a wonderful visit to my parent’s for two weeks, Scotland and I are back. Unfortunately, the day we got back Scotter had an unfortunately fall and broke his collar bone. The first few days were a bit rough- I’ve been trying to keep him from putting any pressure on his arm because it hurts…

Shopping Fun
Today, I had my first real shopping cart “fun” with Scotland. He stood up in the seat, so I pulled him out “for a minute.” When the time came for me to check out, I needed to put him back in the seat. I literally couldn’t get him in. He was holding on to the…

Looking back
I’m working on putting our blog from 2011 into InDesign so I can publish it. It’s been fun to go back and see pictures from the past year. I’ve been particularly interested, that sometimes the pictures that I chose to put on the blog then, aren’t the pictures I would choose to put in the…

For a laugh. . .
I’m not sure why, but this really cracks me up.

Review
I don’t do a very good job of covering what Tom is up to on this blog. I want to be better at including his side of the story. However, I can’t resist documenting this “review.” Cameron McIntyre one of the leader researchers in the field of deep brain stimulation described Tom this way in…

Food Happenings
I know, I know it’s taboo to talk about food you’ve eaten, but I can’t resist. Last Friday our Grandma Myrtle hosted a gumbo night. She specifically asked me to make sure that everyone made themselves comfortable. She wanted it to feel like on big family. I love this picture because it shows that her…
