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!

Working at Aunt Susie's

A couple of weekends ago Connor and I were finally able to go to Susie's house to help out with the work that is being done. Because of Connor being sick so much, it had been quite a while since I had seen it. I was amazed with the progress! It is going to look great when it is finished!

Since the weather was so nice we decided to take on the landscaping project for the front yard. We dug up the trunks of some very large bushes and planted some flowers and new bushes in its place. We created another bed on the other side of the sidewalk and mimicked the other one. I didn't get any final pictures after we put the mulch down :( I was pooped from all of that planting. It looks so great! Its amazing what a little landscaping will do for curb appeal.

Connor of course did most of the work! He had to put on his gloves and help Daddy dig out all of the grass. Poor guy was sick and we didn't even know it. That night he came down with a high fever and little did we know that his strep had not went away. He was such a trooper and I never would have known he was sick at all!
