Day 83.....more fun

Tuesday, December 11, 2012

I thought I would share some more of the fun stuff that has been happening around here.

Remember we were taking pictures of signs with family member's names...Mom, this one is for you :)) AND we actually ate there

This owl was in my parents' back yard the other day.......WOW!!!!!

This next photo needs a story......

On Sunday Sean made a homemade pumpkin pie....I think I told you that already.  We obviously HAD to have whipped cream to go with it, of which we had none.  So after our fun and yummy dinner out on Sunday evening, we stopped at a grocery store to pick some up.  Dillon and I waited in the car while the wild ones ran into the store.  Dillon and I sat chatting while we waited......and suddenly out of the corner of my eye I see some lunatic running full speed through this icy parking lot in the dark.  Dillon becomes hysterical and then I realize....the MANIAC IS MY HUSBAND.......full on running with a grocery cart.   Not just any grocery cart I tell you.....it is one of those ones with the little car attached to the front that is big enough for about a 3-year-old.   Guess who was CRAMMED into that tiny little car driving that thing like he is in the Indy 500, none other that Luca the Great.   THEN......Luca could not get out of the little car...mind you it is about 10 degrees and windy.  Do you think his dad helps him out of the car......HECK NO....he just stands there laughing his head off while the kid is trying to crawl out onto the icy asphalt.  Oh my Lord Dillon and I have not laughed that hard in ages........all the while my mom is on the phone with me trying to figure out what the heck is going on.  Good times......Good times!!!!!!!

Maniacal race car driver

Today Luca got a long awaited promise fulfilled.  He got to play hockey with Sean, who works at Brent's, and is a very accomplished hockey player.  Check out these two speed demons....

Sean gave Luca a great lesson on passing and stance

Luca is over the moon happy....he loves to be on the ice

Face off

Tomorrow we are going to the candy cane factory and waiting for Todd and Meil to arrive (around midnight if all goes well....yawwwnnn :)))  We can't wait to see them!!

P.S.  All of Dillon's labs on monday were PERFECT!!  Kidneys, liver, white cells, red cells, platelets, medication levels.  We don't have to go back until next Tuesday....YAHHOOO!!!  Still battling with the belly, the fluid and food intake, and this pesky rash on his body....but other than that....we are definitely on an upswing!!
