Shallum is building the fence to where this 30yr old oak tree is in our backyard! 

 

this is our neighborhood view from the front door.

  

This is the last picture you'll see of our property without some sort of "house" on it. They are going to start pouring our foundation next week. We met some of our neighbors today, Denise and Steve. They seemed very nice. They are a young couple but already have 7 grandchildren. They informed us that they are the chocolate-givers of the neighborhood to all the kiddos. I let them know if mine are still vibrating at 3:00am they'll be getting a ding-dong from 2 little boys who want to spend the night! Already feeling like a very comforting neighborhood.

This next week is going to be another full week for me. I'm doing Triage Monday-Wednesday and then Friday Jenn will be in town to come with me to mom's follow-up with her neurologist. I'm excited to talk to him about the new FDA-approved drug, Ampyra, which has a pretty good success rate of improving ambulation (walking). That would be so great for mom.

I think I'll go take a nap before the marathon of football known as Superbowl starts .... I'm already excited, can you tell?
