Everyone Please Say a little Prayer for 4 (Victor IV)

Victor IV had a little accident on his dirt bike this past weekend. He has 7 fractured vertabrae in his upper back. He has 3 spine and neck and back injury specialists taking care of him and they feel he will make a full recovery without surgery. He will be in a chest/back brace for several weeks.

Today he looks much better, and hopefully he will be released by Thursday or Friday. He is turning 14 on Nov. 17th. Just please mention him in all your prayers for a speedy recovery. Thanks to all in the family.

Vic (III)

p.s. he is at Baylor Hospital in Dallas Rm 1104

Stomping grapes was pretty gross, and who knows how many people stomped before us! Mom stomped too hard and got grape stains on her shirt and on my leg!

Fall Creek Vineyard Grape Stomp

Hi everyone! I have been busy with grad school so I haven't been able to post these pictures from August 23rd. Mom, Dad, Pam and my boyfriend Justin went to Fall Creek Winery in Tow, Texas (by Lake Buchanan) for their annual grape stomp. It was hot and sweaty, but we had fun and drank a lot of wine (which Pam wasn't too fond of). Mom and I stomped grapes (pictures to follow) and we took a tour of the winery.
