MERRY CHRISTMAS

Christmas morning Brynnly woke up at about 8. She was so excited to open all of her gifts! She even jumped up and down. Here are a few pictures from that day!!





We have a tridition in our family to take a picture on the top of our stairs. Here is one of me and my cute Brynnly.

Christmas Miracle

Yes it is true this year my family was blessed with a miracle. You see the doctors were positive that my dad would either have to have shunts (however it's spelled) or a bypass. They even thought it might have to be a multiple bypass. So we went to the hospital yesterday to get his angeogram (I'm not so good at spelling the medical terms). We waited FOREVER! They finally took my Dad after like 5 hours of waiting. Telling us he'd be back in an hour to an hour and a half. My grandma and i left about 35 mins after that to get some food. My dad wasn't allowed to eat and we didn't want him to have to smell our food. My mom stayed to wait for him.
I'm waiting with my cute grammy to get our food and my mom called telling me my dad was back! And that they didn't do anything for him. My heart sunk... That meant he needed a bypass. I know people have them all the time but i was still worried for my Dad. Almost in tears I repeated back to her "They didn't do anything?" She responded "No they don't have to do ANYTHING AT ALL!!!" I was truly in tears then.
He could control it with medication. All of our prayers had been answered. That had never been an option. He has to check back in a year, other than that it's back to normal!!
I'd like to thank all of you for your support and prayers. We truly appreciate it.

My Poor Daddy

My dad went into the doctor a few weeks ago for a cough and the doctor noticed his heart was enlarged. So they ordered a stress test and just found out that sometime over the past year he has had a heart attack. I know it's odd that he didn't know he was having one while it happened, but he has a very high pain tolerence and he doesn't like to worry my mom by telling her when he's in pain. The next step is to check out how bad the damage is. So Tuesday he's going in to see what they need to do to fix it. There's a big chance that he might need to have a bypass. I'm asking for you to remember him in your prayers over the next few days. We love you all and wish you a very Merry Christmas!

My Little Snow Angel

Brynnly loves the snow! We took her out into the snow and she couldn't get enough. But she got really cold really fast and had to come inside! Not before a cute photo tho!
