Excuses, excuses, excuses.......

 
 
 
 
I feel like it has been a year since I last did a blog update. So much has happened and then yet so little all at the same time.  Just a few pictures to put a smile on my face!
 
 
 
 
 


















 Oh yea, I almost forgot, the big fall.  Let me recap it.  As we were getting off the chairlift I heard helmets crashing together, then a "sorry 'bout that, dude",  and then I was down on the snow in the blink of an eye.  Me.  I was down.  How in the world did that happen?  I earned a sweet toboggan ride back down the mountain from the ski patrol which was probably by far the most terrifying ride I have been on to date.  My Dad was in town visiting so he got to see the whole thing unfold as well.  We then went to the ER for x-rays which manifested into a week long ordeal of an orthopedic surgeon, appointment, MRI, back to the surgeon, and then a few more weeks of waiting, back to the surgeon two more times, surgery for the torn ACL, and then a recovery that is way worse than I anticipated it to be.  However, there is way to much to be thankful for to get down (most of the time), many many many blessings have come out of this.

The knee.  Swollen, cut up, but on the mend!
