Grandma Update

Grandma had her biopsy this morning and came through just fine. As of right now the doctors don't have the results back, so we are still uncertain as to what she has. We did find out the doctors found fluid on her lungs that would coincide with pneumonia but she doesn't have any other symptoms. So as it stands Grandma is a medical mystery, but we all love her!

Grandma

Yesterday was an eventful day for many, it began with Rusty's grandmother being rushed to the ER! Once she got to the ER they ran tests and xrays that showed a small spot on one of her lungs. Throughout the day she had several blood pressure drops which scared her, so the doctors decided to put her in ICU over night for observation purposes. As of last night the doctors think she may have the start of lung cancer. Today she is doing better she ate very well at breakfast and the doctors are moving her out of ICU and into a room. Her doctor consulted a surgeon at EMC and they are going to perform a biopsy tomorrow with a bronchial scope and examine the rest of her lung to see what condition it is in. Then Sat. they are going to run another CT scan and possibly another biopsy. So if it is lung cancer hopefully they caught it in it's early stages and can treat it with radiation or chemo. Grandma is tough she will get through this little bump in the road.

Last Weekend

I know it's Tuesday but I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I ventured to the Auburn vs Mississippi St. football game Saturday night with my parents while my other half raced in Kinston. Auburn won... WAR EAGLE!

Rusty's racing adventure seemed quite interesting though, it rained when everyone got to the track but because the Pro Late Models (I call them the Big Boys) that come from miles away were racing track officials never called the race. So once the rain stopped everyone got on the track to help dry it. They had the driver's meeting and got a few races in, then it started raining again. Well they still didn't call the race. Long story short (because anyone and everyone who knows me knows I tend to ramble), Rusty got to race. He started third on the poll and ended in 6Th place, Joey did well and ended the race in 5Th place. Our friend Lee Rogers ended the race in 3rd, Lee has done very well this season with lots of top 3 wins. Lee is currently 1st in the points with Rusty in 4Th and Joey in 11Th. They have all improved so much this season. I really can't believe the season is ending next month, we only have 2 races left until the championship.

My cousin Langdon is getting married this next weekend (Sunday Sept. 20Th). We are looking forward to seeing the family, it has been a little while since we have seen everyone at one time. Unfortunately Rusty and I won't get to attend the rehearsal dinner, but we will definitely be at the wedding.

Hannah

I also wanted to share some pictures with you of our Goddaughter Hannah. She is a blast to be around, her parents are okay too (he, he don't shoot me Crystal if you are reading this)!! She really keeps me in stitches! Hannah is 7 months old and Rusty and I have really enjoyed the gift her parents have given us by allowing us to share in those "special moments". The first week of November Kyle, Crystal and Hannah are joining Rusty and myself on vacation to Pigeon Forge, TN and we are all looking forward to it. I have found myself planning things I think Hannah will enjoy, as if she is the one taking the vacation and the adults are just along for the ride. What's funny is she isn't our child but she is the closest child Rusty and I have right now and we cherish every moment her parents allow us to have with her! Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Finally Some Pictures

The first picture I'll share is of my arm where I pinched it in the chair Sunday. Trust me it hurt as bad as it looks, today is Wednesday and it is still black and blue!

OUCH!

And now for the pictures everyone really wants to see... Baby Crews!

UNCLE RUSTY PINCHED THAT BABY!!

Actually we found out he had a poopy diaper REAL QUICK.

Crews was playing peek-a-boo with us!

Baby Crews wasn't even 24 hours old when these pictures were taken!!

Weekend Events

Well, we made it through the weekend! Baby Crews and Mom Erica are healthy and ready to go home today (I'll post some pictures later this week), Auburn squeaked out a win on Saturday and our good friends Kyle and Crystal asked Rusty and I last night to be Godparents to their 7 month old little girl Hannah! So the weekend was good to us. You don't realize how blessed you truly are until friends ask such things of you, and without hesitation we accepted.

We know another special little girl that is having a birthday this Sunday!!! Not just any Birthday though it is her 1st Birthday... HAPPY 1st BIRHTDAY MISS CAROLINE!! Eat lots of cake!

I had a slight incedent yesterday, I some how managed to pinch the underside of my upper left arm in a hole created in my recliner when the top portion is completely reclined. So my arm is now a nice black and blue. I made Rusty take pictures last night so I can post them on here, so pictures will follow later this week.

So as you can see we had an eventful weekend not as eventful as some may have had, but eventful enough for us. I hope to get more pictures on here for everyone to see by the end of the week.

Our New Nephew

Crews Carson Gibes has made his grand entrance into this world!!! He was born around 2:45pm and weighs 7lbs 12oz. Mom Erica and baby Crews are doing great and Dad Ronnie is still a little weak in the knees!!! I hope to have pictures for you soon so you can share in our excitement!
