Everything went quite well today until this p.m. during 'yard play time.' Who knew Gavin had such a swing? After watching him hit several duds, we were all surprised when he nailed John just above the elbow at less than25 feet. It was pretty painful and ended up in a trip to the Pana emergency room (Looks a lot different since my last trip there!). So, no more pics of empty drawers and closets (and you say 'yay!) Diagnosis - chipped bone, possibly growth plate. Upon return to Atlanta, have to get another x ray and john may be doing nada physical for the rest of the summer! Bummer. I guess you could call it even 'cause Gavin's broken arm and wrist both occurred from play with John. What goes around. . .ends up in a colorful cast!!
P.S. We went to Dairy Queen after . . . mocha moo latte for John and another box of dilly bars for the bro's, everyone is fat and happy!!!

Hope it's not too serious of an injury, especially when Summer is just starting. When will you be heading back South? Don't forget to stop by the house for a visit with the boys. And thanks for the enormous amount of help with mom and dad's purging of old stuff. Con and I are celebrating our 12th anniversary today!
God, I miss those Dairy Queen Dilly Bars . . . the near perfect confection.
This was certainly the most relaxed and uneventful trip to the E.R. Not too serious . . . but we might have to cast it in a week. No blood and guts hanging out. Happy anniversary Scott & Connie! Yes, we'll visit b4 we leave and we still need you to come set off the roman candles. Its a bit windy today . . .
Poor John! As usual, he has a big smile on his face, in spite of his arm.
