Father's Day

The past couple of days have been relatively uneventful. We've been going to the pool a lot and I've been taking it easy, getting massages and such. I have an apointment tomorrow with the neurosurgeon to see what's really up with my back. Hopefully nothing too serious. It's definately better. Chiropractic is amazing! I don't know what I'd do without Dr. Lili. She has saved me so many times, and she is incredibly compassionate.

Our favorite priest left our church today. Fr. Casmir has been an ispiration to us. He is full of the Holy Spirit, always smiling and joyful, always giving an encouraging word. It is really cool to be around people who are convicted and so sure of the truth. There is no dualism in Fr. Casmir. He will be greatly missed.

To round out a perfectly lovely father's day, Muggs decided to trim the fir tree next to our porch. He borrowed the electric trimmer from our neighbor, and got up on the roof to take the top off the tree. He took his finger off instead. We spent the latter part of the day (7pm-midnight) at the ER while he got sedated, x-rayed and 7 stitches in his left birdie finger. Happy Father's Day, Muggsy! Then he locked the keys in the car and had to call a locksmith. Oh yeah, and I ran over Emma's foot in the harried ER trip. Didn't do damage, just black tire marks on her flip flops and the side of her foot. What a day!

Hee-Hee! John locked the keys in the car on Father's Day too! We spent 2.5 hours in the parking lot of a gas station...but no missing digits or stitches. Sorry Chris!
Good luck with the back...that picture looks absolutely awful! Get healed already!!!

Both of your guys did it? That's just wierd. Shanna! What a series of unfortunate events. You should frame the flip-flop. Nice work NOT even hurting her foot.
