Thatcher's Story

Thatcher's Story
I didn't want this to get lost in my list of posts, so I am creating a place so that everyone can easily access this link. Please read this touching story about baby Thatcher, our friends son who was born with a rare liver disease and is in need of a liver transplant. Jessie has worked closely with Brad for over 4 years and I became friends with her while working at WSA until I left last spring. Thatcher was born a month before Braden and this story really hits home for me. When I look at Braden I think about how incredibly lucky I am. This could just as easily be our him going through this. Jessie will most likely be the living donor for Thatcher and they are in need of our prayers! I promise you will be touched by reading this story. Thanks!

Connor's First Thanksgiving

Connor and Pawpaw

Great Grandma, Connor, and Pawpaw

Connor getting his game plan together for Black Friday.



Today we celebrated Thanksgiving at my Grandma and Pawpaw's house. We had a great time and ate too much as usual. I always stuff myself even though I tell myself that I'm not going to "this year". There are just too many dishes that you dont get to eat the other days of the year, SO you have to try them all! Then comes the dessert... This year, we had so many desserts to choose from. Even Dad made something! I have included a picture of the tasty treat. It was a banana pudding pie. Didnt he do a good job? It was confirmed by Mom that he did it ALL by himself. I was pretty impressed as you can tell.

It was so strange to watch Connor crawl around the house, thinking that I had done this many years before. Connor's dinner included: turkey, corn, green beans, and sweet potatoes. He seemed to really enjoy the feast! On Saturday we will travel to Rockwood to visit with the Thompson's and eat some more!
