Always a new adventure

Well we've had an interesting last week. On thursday we drove up to south jordan and went on a tour of Neuroworx. The founder of it took us on the tour and told us all about himself and neuroworx. He was such a nice guy. He was in an accident 9 years ago and he injured c4 and c5 which is a level higher than Rick. But he has been mostly healed and can walk now. He said alot of his bottom half is still paralized but he's blessed enough to be able to walk. We are so excited to start there! Hopefully we can figure out all the insurance stuff this week and get accepted and start this next thursday. They have so many machines and stuff there that we think will really help Rick. And everyone has such positive attitudes! Which is a great change from when we were in the hospital. So hopefully I'll be writing in these next couple days saying that we got accepted and we're going!!


On Friday we went up to Fish Lake for a picnic with our neighbors Ady and Hollan. It was so pretty up there! We were cursing ourselves the whole time because we forgot the camera and it was so beautiful! It was just a fun little day trip to kinda get away. I love living here because our backyard is the mountains and we only have to drive 30 min. and be somewhere so beautiful. But we had a picnic and then went on some trails and on a walk and watched some boats in the lake. It was a fun little get away. On friday night we walked down the street to the highschool and watched some of the football game. Then we just hung out outside and talked to some of the neighbors till it was dark and headed home.


On Saturday our whole neighborhood had a big yard sale. Sadly I threw most of the stuff we didn't want when we moved so we didn't have anything to sell but in the morning we took a walk over and saw all the stuff that they had to sell. It sounds like everyone did pretty good and got rid of alot of stuff. After we walked over there Rick's dad came and picked him up and took him birthday shopping for me. I'm going to have such a hard time when Rick goes back to work because even when he's gone for like an hour I miss him so much! But I was really excited that they were birthday shopping for me! Poor Rick has had to hear about my birthday for the last 4 weeks. I'm one of those people that think that my birthday should be a national holiday and Rick thinks that birthdays are no big deal. But i have taken it upon myself to convert him to my side! But luckily for him my birthday is tommorow and then I have to stop talking about it for at least another 8 months. Well after he came back we just hung out for a little bit then alot of our neighbors went to one of our neighbors house and we all had dinner together and just talked and chilled. It was really fun, we love having tons of friends all in our neighborhood, it makes things so easy.


For the next couple day my parents are coming to hang out for my birthday and because they want to see us ( and the house). So we should have fun and I'll keep ya posted on everything for Rick's rehab. We think this week is going to be a great week for Rick and we're going to see alot of improvements, so hopefully he proves us right!!
