Hello my Lovelies!
I'm getting to the HHM post late this week due to the holiday weekend. To those in the states that celebrated Memorial Weekend - I hope you had a nice long relaxing one. May God bless all of our service men and women and their families for all the freedoms they help provide our country. 🇺🇸
We spent part of the weekend here with all the kiddos (Aaron and Jill were up). And then we spent part of it at the lake with Matt's folks. We went out for pizza with the kids one night and played cards/games over the time hanging with them - as well as great visiting.
And at the lake we went out on a pontoon ride, helped Matt's Mom get all of her flowers, played cards, watched movies and just relaxed. Matt and his Dad got their fishing licenses but Matt's Dad didn't feel good the morning they were going to go out - so they didn't fish. But Matt brought the bait home and plans to fish off our dock a bit this week. :)
On big bummer note - my Mom had a fall over the weekend. She fractured a vertebrae in her back and tore some ligaments. She is okay...thank the Lord! But she will be in a heavy duty brace for 3 months. Not fun. We are getting her and my step Dad set up with meals on wheels, and we got her a commode in case it's needed. I'm also getting her a walker. I will be checking in regularly, running errands for them as needed, and stocking their freezer with more meals. Scary stuff and I pray in such gratitude she is ultimately okay.
