Gunners surgery

Gunner had his hand surgery today. All went well...thanks be to God
We got there at 5:30 and the surgery was scheduled for 7. Around 7:15 they hadn't heard from the Dr. They started trying to reach him and he didn't have it on his schedule. So he arrived and they got started around 8
It took about an hour.
He has a bandage that looks like a cast. He has to keep that on for 2 weeks. The hard part is gonna be trying to keep him still.
Thank you to everyone for praying, for texting, for the gifts, and for checking on him. God is so good.  

This is when we first arrived
They gave him an ipad to play with
This is what his hand looked like before the operation
He is feeling no pain. This is after happy juice. He had us cracking up
After recovery...waiting to go home
Dressed and ready to leave
A bit more awake now. He got 5 stuffed toys and wants to hold them all :)

Mini vacay

Our family just got back from a 3 day vacation. Had a wonderful time away.  The kids really enjoyed themselves.  It was a very nice resort in Sevierville.  Hope to go back soon. When we got home we took a 3 hour nap...now that's a vacation lol

He approves ;)

We also celebrated Colts 8th birthday...he loves Dude Perfect

We could not keep them out of these things

And when we headed out for a day of souvenir shopping they all chose bows and arrows.

Fell between the cushions and could not get out

Happy birthday Colt...8!!!

Yesterday, Colt turned 8. We had planned a trip away for this week and so he wanted to have his party here at the resort. So everyone sent their gifts for him to open here. Becky made an awesome Dude Perfect cake. She always does an amazing job. We are having a blast! They all love the water slide.  I will post more pictures at the end of our vacation.
Happy birthday to a very sweet kid...we love you Colt!


Gunner got ahold of the cake...see the smashed 8? haha

Black Mountain

Took another hike today at Black Mountain. I guess we walked a total of 2 hours.  So much fun. Beautiful country.
