Turkey Day!

We headed on over to Omaha for Thanksgiving this year.  Many prayers please for my grandpa, who ended up in the ICU this holiday weekend.  On Wednesday, my 90-year young grandpa stumbled backward as he was trying to sit down.  As he was falling backward, he hit a cement pole that is part of their basement structuring.  He hit it so hard, was briefly knocked unconscious, and was taken by ambulance to the hospital.  To make a long story short, after a couple of brain scans that displayed increased bleeding he was not able to have Thanksgiving dinner with us on Thursday nor able to just relax with the family on Friday.  He is doing better and was discharged today, Saturday, the day we returned from Omaha.

Needless to say, it was a tough few days.  We are just glad he is doing better and is now at home.   On a selfish note, it was quite the experience traveling for the first time as a family.  It's certified circus.  Bryce is too old to sit as a lapchild, but too young to really have his own seat.  Then, to make it all the more interesting, thanks to USAirways we didn't receive our luggage until Thursday mid-day.  Love it.

The entire Krenz family came into Omaha for the weekend, and we had a wonderful time, despite having to visit grandpa in the hospital.  It's always great getting to catch up with family, and my cousin Keri and I always leave saying to each other how good friends we would be if we lived closer.  It's so easy for us to catch up right where we left off.
