Concussion




Yep, Ty took a hard helmet to helmet hit in his game last night and has a concussion and a couple of stingers. He is very sore and we are going to the doctor this afternoon. Apparently everything (severity and such) has to be documented until he is over it or the school will not let him go back to playing until our doctor releases him. Went and picked him up at school this morning and dropped him off at home. I came back to work so told him to call me every half hour so I know he is okay. He was dizzy and sick to his stomach. Yeah I know, probably should have not come back to work but someone has to man the office! He'll be okay. I'll be home with him in a couple hours. Will post an update after our appointment. Oh, the other kid on the bench hurt is his buddy Zach. Apparently he might have some broken ribs and his Mom had to go get him this morning from school too. Tough game for our boys but they did win 43-8 I think it was.

***UPDATE-Sorry didn't do this sooner but ran out of time before Kyle's game last night. Tyler has a phase 1 (3 being the worst so that is good) concussion. As long as the headaches get better and go away and he doesn't develop new symptoms he is released to practice already on Monday. So very good news. And by last night at the end of Kyle's game he was moving around pretty well and his eyes no longer looked "glassy & out there". And he is with his friend Ethan today and going to the UNI game so I think he will be just fine. :-)

Ty Football 2010

So finally remembered to take the camera to Ty's game Friday night and snap some pictures. We won 45-0 and Ty had 3 TD's but one was called back. I don't know what his class will think when/if they ever lose. They haven't lost a game since grade school. Wouldn't that be awesome if they never did lose one? I think our varsity team will be a force to be reckoned with when they are juniors and seniors. Not saying that the varsity team currently isn't. They haven't lost this year either. Love football season but sad to see summer almost over! Go Wapsie Valley Warriors!

Happy Birthday Hildegard

Today is my sister in law Helen's birthday. I love this gal. We have been friends for a very long time, and we truly have a blast with each other. Thank goodness we can spend a lot of time together because we spend literally EVERY weekend together April through October at the river on our houseboats. We do crazy stuff, we cook awesome food, and we just hang out and talk. And in the off months or when we don't see each other, my car just seems to turn down her road when I am heading home from shopping. Even when Bruce has just waxed it and done the wheels. Right Helen? Oh well he washed it again quick when I got home. He knew I had to have my fix of "Hellie"! I love you Helen Hildegard like a sister and I know that we are having an awesome day moving and winterizing our boats for the season on your birthday! May we have many more river summers to celebrate birthdays and anniversaries with our friends and family. Oh, and this winter when you are having th...

Most Of Us

Okay I just had to post this picture even though I did post it with all the college move in slideshow pictures. This is the emotional morning that we left to move Kyle into his dorm. I think this is a really good picture of all of us except obviously Cole is missing. But he always tries too hard and "sometimes" messes up pictures, so I think it is safe to say this is a pretty good picture of Bruce and I with 2 of 3 favorite children in the world! See.....I said you are ALL FAVORITE CHILDREN!!!!!!! Just wait until there are grandchildren.....none of you will make the blog very often!
