I can't believe it has been June since I have updated my blog....but you will see that life has interrupted the 'normal' flow of activities and brought some surprises our way! After my last hike with The Foxes and our four grandsons, I left for Gerogia to visit Nathan, Courtney, and Hannah
...and attend a friend's wedding.
Okay...isn't she cute?
Miss Hannah Grace White!
How can you not LOVE this precious face?
On just the second night in Georgia I had a freak accident falling out of bed and breaking my right wrist. (I am typing----and doing everything else---mostly lefthanded.) Nathan & I spent all night in Kennestone's ER (it took four hours before I was seen by a doctor!) =OUCH!!! You would think it could have been some exciting accident like being attacked by a bear while hiking the mountains, or sky diving, or mud-wrestling...but I really just fell off the bed backwards while moving the pillows!...and this is what my 'temporary' cast looked like:
Three days later I visited an orthopedic doctor and got a PINK cast! Here I am a week later when my Birthday Group threw a group birthday party for Pam, Jan and me.
(note my pink cast!)
When I returned to Denver my hand was burning and hurting quite a bit. I found a doctor here and x-rays showed that the set bone had shifted. The following Monday I had surgery and they put in a plate and screws (double ouch). I no longer have to wear a cast...only a splint...but I have very limited motion and usage of my arm. I have started physical therapy but it will take up to 6 months or more for healing. It still hurts very much.
Just before I had surgery I was hired at Cherokee Ranch and Castle to be their Wedding Coordinator! I have thoroughly enjoyed being a part of the team and you can see from these photos how beautiful it is there!
Just beyond the ceremony site is a beautiful view of Pike's Peak.
From the Terrace guests enjoy a breath-taking view of the Front Range.
It is situated up on a bluff overlooking its 3,200 + acres as a wildlife reserve with 40+ head of cattle---obtained from the King Ranch in Texas---elk, bear, mountain lions....and my favorite: Rattlesnakes!
(I've personally seen one in the parking lot and hope it's the last one I ever see!!)
Sunset at The Castle.
Come visit and I will personally give you a tour of the castle, its tourrets, the terrace
and the breath-taking views!!
Please continue to pray for my arm, our jobs, our house (which we still haven't even broken ground on because of red tape in Colorado!), and the whole White clan!!!
Blessings on you as you pray~
