Birthdays and Visits

These last couple of weeks have been a little hectic in my family. Last week I got a call from my mom that my grandma was being tacken to the hospital. After a MRI and some tests it was determined that she had a Stroke. Her left side of her body was affected. She has lost some vision in her left eye and so she has a hard time walking, eating, and seeing. After a few days being at Overlake, she was transferred to a Rehab Facility up here at Snoqualmie Valley Hospital next to our home. We have been to visit daily and my mom has practically lived there with her. My grandma has really just been sleeping on and off and the doctors said this could go on for another couple weeks. It won't be until after that when they will be able to see what lasting damage the stroke really has done to her body. Because of this last weekend we got a visit from my brother from Tennessee. Also, a few of my cousins came over from the Tricities as well. It was so nice to have my brother here and to have his help with my parents getting my grandma all settled. We sure do miss him and Jenny and little Emma. It was also nice to introduce my bro to a few of my friends who he has not been able to meet. Amongst all the craziness, my hubby celebrated his 31st birthday. On his actual birthday, Feb. 18th, we had all our family over as well as a couple of our closest friends. We had a great night of pizza and cake and celebrating. A few days after we did a small celebration at our friends house. I got some ice cream cake for this and it eneded up in Ty's lap.!:) It was a great moment and I even got a picture of it. (The baby in the picture is our friends new little addition that Ty is holding). Happy Birthday, my love! I love Feb. because it is a lot of celebrations for love and for you!:)
