Survived the Flood

-

Knowing that it rained today, I’m sure that most of you would assume that this meant, we didn’t wash away with the rain.  It was a nice rainy day.  And since Justin is still recovering, we had the liberty of sleeping in late and lounging around today.  (Back to our college days when it was just “too messy” to go to class.)  But this is not what I mean by the title.  Since, it was a rainy day, we played HALO!

For those of you who are not familiar, let me fill you in.  HALO is an XBOX game.  (We like to run and gun.)  Halo 3 came out a year or so ago, and we bought it because Justin was “raised” on this game.  This is one thing that we do together.  So, Yeah I would say that I am a wonderful wife because not all ladies would endure this wonderful time consuming combat.  When Justin and I were at MSU, he always tried to buy Xbox games that I would like to play with him (Bugs Bunny, Golf, Looney Tunes).  Now to brag on my husband, I get to watch the chick-flicks that I want see.   He has endured all 10 seasons of Friends, Pretty Woman, Failure to Launch, I could go on, but let me get back to the point.

Justin and I have already beaten Halo 3 (when it came out) on Heroic!  (Levels are Easy, Normal, Heroic, Legendary) Now we are replaying the game on Legendary.  Its really all about bragging rights.  So, today we completed “The Flood”.  I won’t go into detail about it, but “The Flood” is not rain!

Even though it took a few hours of the day, it was nice just spending time together!  I have actually gotten much better and get in to the game too!  I’m sure our lives will change drastically if we have kids, but for now we are happy just playing Xbox together!

Room Service

-
Justin has been moved to a room this morning!  He is doing great!  All of the doctors and nurses are very excited about his progress.  Before leaving ICU, they removed most of his “stuff” (except for one IV).  This allow him to move around more freely, which is the next step.  Justin will be getting up and walking around this afternoon.  He is also just starting to eat again.  If you think about it, he hasn’t had anything since Monday night supper.  So, it will be like learning how to eat after the stomach virus.  We are praying this doesn’t make him sick.  They will also be giving pain medicine by mouth, so we are also praying that his pain continues to stay under control! He is making such great progress!  I think he is far ahead, especially with moving around, than he was this far out of last year with his surgery!  That is exciting!  Praising the Lord for this! Loving your comments, I read them to Justin as he is dozing in and out.  I can’t wait to read them to him when he is

Update and Welcome

I know that many of you are new to our blog, so welcome! Justin and I enjoy blogging about our lives, but I know that many of you have just joined us for surgery. So, please stay tuned for the rest of our lives as well! Justin is doing well. He has rested most of the day. He also sat up in a chair for an HOUR! He said his chest pain was fine, but he couldn't get his neck comfortable in that chair ( because he wanted to SLEEP!) He has been a great patient and has his normal humor. He also has comments that make little to no sense and probably won't remember most of this! Funny Comments from Justin today - Mrs. Anita was talking to Justin and finally said, "I think you're sleeping, so I'm going to leave you along. " to which Justin replied (With eyes closed) - "I can multitask!" Mom was cracking jokes by his bed and said, "I guess you don't think this is funny." And I said, "That's ok , right Justin, that is how we tal

Congrats to . . . 1. Suzy, my cousin, for guessing the name before the last letter was released!  She was the first to send in the correct answer! 2. Chris and Paige; Chad and Ashley; and Lindsay for sending in correct answers on the blog!  Great job to Paige for being creative in her posting! 3. Ashley V. for texting in the correct answer! 4. Mrs. Donna for knowing before the last letter was posted and just heard the letters during choir practice! 5. Larry Swords for correctly guessing through a verbal guess! Charles Elliot McMillen will be joining us in a few short months!  It sounds even closer when you count it in weeks – 15 more weeks to go! Charles – Justin’s father and grandfather both had the first name of Charles!  Charles means strong, manly; valiant one. Elliot – Jehovah is my God – When we first talked about the name, we were still talking about other options until we found the meaning!  We love the meaning of his name! Thank you for playing along in ou
