Happy to be alive...

... and make it to twenty-five!

This cute little tike has a birthday today.

Happy Birthday Brad!

Six month appointment

( his x-ray at the appointment )

Even though it has almost been seven months since Brad's accident, he had his six month appointment on Tuesday. Dr. Allen said that Brad's back looks great and that at his one year appointment he will give him the okay to go back to totally normal life. He is also totally off of blood thinners now which is wonderful!

Speaking of getting back to normal, Brad was lucky enough to get a new paraglider. He still has to get a trike though because there will be no more foot launching for him.

Pumpkin Shake at McD's?!?!

Has anyone besides me noticed that those golden arches have a pumpkin milkshake? On Friday while in Pocatello with Brad I noticed that they have a pumpkin shake on the menu and was elated because of my love for pumpkin everything during the fall so I just had to try it. When we ordered it the person on the other end of the speaker hadn't even heard of it. Let me just tell you it was a little piece of heaven. When I was done I wanted to lick the cup but since we had snuck it into the dollar movies in my purse I had to refrain. I have yet to see if they have it in the Blackfoot McDonald's but I have been craving it like crazy ever since.

I think everyone should try it!

Happy 3rd Birthday to this little Buzz Lightyear!
