SAVE THE DATE

I want to let everyone know that we are planning a graduation party for Ryan on Saturday evening, May 17 in Austin. (Georgetown) Our plans are tentative, but we are going to party at Linda and Tom's house. I will call the Comfort Suites in Georgetown and ask for a group rate...this is the same location that several of us stayed in when Theresa graduated. Please let me know if any of you are interested in getting a room there. I will be sending invitations out soon. Hope you can make it!

Roper and Gary's Birthday!!!

Hey everyone I know I am the administrator of this blog and I forgot to put my own 'MEHO'S" birthday on here.

Ropers birthday was Sat. ....thanks for all the calls and cards. We went out to eat at a Steak house and Roper refused to let Mom buy him a $30 T-bone. He said it was a rip off.....and the cow barely cost that much!! Wish he wasn't so grown up sometime.
Gary's birthday is today --Sunday. We will go to his mom's for a birthday dinner. Now Gary is officially as old as I am .

HARLEY

It is with great sadness that I must tell you that we lost Harley on Monday, Feb. 25. Without giving too much detail, I will tell you that we made a very,very hard decision to let him go. Harley was given to us 11 years ago when he was only 3 years old. He was really the best dog ever! Those of you with pets know the sadness we feel. We have many memories and truly miss his presence.

Eva

Mom came thru her surgery very well. Her doctor said she was real tight in that spinal column and he had to do a quite a bit of scraping to clear the path for her nerve to be free. She did not sleep well last night but we'll see today. She has been very tolerant with her pain but they did give her some morphine last night. She may get to go home today ...she is in room 7718 so if you just call 325-670-7718 it will take you straight to her.

SUPER TUESDAY!!!!!

Mom is scheduled for her surgery tomorrow at 10:30. It would probably be after lunch before she would get into a room. You can holler at us 325-669-1556...that my cell.
325-670-2000 is Hendricks Hospital's number.

YOU BETTER VOTE-------OR TELL SOMEONE TO

Just a quick update on mom and her surgery. I sent out the article on her doctor the other day to some of you . Well I had two clients yesterday ...one is a surgery nurse ...and one works in surgery with her doctor. Both said ....If they were having back surgery in Abilene that is who they would want working on them. They said he was an excellent Doctor and when he was doing his residency in Dallas they didn't want him to leave........ they wanted to keep him there but he chose to come home. One nurse may end up working the surgery ....we wont know till Monday . Anyway that made me feel better and mom too. Have a great weekend!

OUR PATRIARCH


Today, January 30, would have been Dad's (Grandpa's) birthday. If he were still alive he would be 107. Let's pause for a moment in tribute to a great parent (grandparent). I'm sure he would still be proud of all of us.

Happy Birthday Dad (Grandpa).
