The Thompson Family: Lions and Tigers and Bears...Oh My!

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!

Lions and Tigers and Bears...Oh My!

We took a little break from our busy week at home doing lots of projects to take Connor to the Nashville Zoo at Grassmere. We had a great time and didnt expect the large crowd that awaited us! We thought that since it was a Thursday it would be pretty quiet, but apparently since Williamson county was out of school and it was a nice day everyone had the same idea we did. It didnt slow us down though, we had a great time and Connor loved it so much more this year than last! He really liked the monkeys but they werent very active while we were there. He also really liked the elephants and the giraffes too! Cant wait to go back soon!
