Feeling Like a Party!


Dad was feeling so much better yesterday that he was up for the party! My oldest son Robby had a birthday and turned 12 Tuesday March 11th - so he wanted his Pappy to be a part of his celebration. After we took the family to Buffalo Wild Wings, we got some wings "to go" for mom and dad then headed to Rehab to continue the party with them. He got in his wheelchair and went to the dining area where we had the party! He ate some wings, then we sang happy birthday to Robby - and we had cake, ice cream and strawberries. It was great! Then afterward Brady and Dad watched some special on tv about bears in Yellowstone National Park. In the picture above you can see the kids with granny & pappy, plus 2 of Robby's best friends Adam & Alex Church (they are the twins in the center back). Dad is laughing in this picture because his has sauce on his face and Brady has a candle and is going to light it - these kids really had fun with him.

Dad was able to do therapy some yesterday, but I think he will do much better today after feeling so well last night. We are going to try to take him to Robby & Bradys basketball games up at the Eagle Classic Tournament at Hedgesville Middle School this evening. . . the boys teams both made it to the championships of their grade levels - so dad would get to see them play in back to back games. I think he really wants to get out for bit after being confined to his bed the past week with that stomach thing. I'll let you know how it goes!
