The Middle Holmzez: 10/19/08

I recently went out in search of the colors of fall. My Friend Jenny Peter's added a really vibrant picture of some fall trees on her face book. That sparked me for new ideas for the decor in the Boys bathroom. So off I went to the parkway and around the area to find what I could in vibrant Fall colors. These are a few of the many and when I say many it must of been over 100. Along the way I did run into some comical furry friends. One also at the top is one I had to add too. Not sure if you can tell, but it had it's mouth open and was just so cute looking at me while a squeaked at it from the other side of the road.

Lately I have been really enjoying taking outdoor pics. It all started with a stormy day back quite a few months ago. Peter and I were driving home from somewhere. I noticed a break in the sky that this wonderful brightness. It is hard to describe. It brought a smile to me and then lump in my throat along with tears streaming down my cheeks, For my heart is still very heavy. As I sit here tears stream for I still can't seem to let go that my grampa is no longer with us. Some would say it was him looking down from heaven. Some would say just a coincidence. I say I found a chance to remember him and what he meant to me by scrap booking the pictures with a meaningful note

The first Pics are of that Day of Remembrance

We started off the week on a couple bad notes. We went to the Doc on Monday due to Trev having a extremely red sore throat. and it had been bothering him for at that ime he said a week. Hmmmmmmmmm why didn't he say anything, well the fear of not being able to play! DAAAAAAAA

STREP? Negative (good news)

But Dr. Dr. gave him the news, No practice on Tues.

He proceeded to practice on Weds, although injured a different area of his Football machine. He was doing a tackling drill and his technique was a bit to be desired. He went in to tackle his buddy Joey and his neck cracked. He said it felt stiff like when you crack your knuckles, so what the heck !!!!!! LETS DO IT AGAIN. SOoooo he preceeded to tackle again and he heard yet another crack and then realized he could no longer do anymore oh because he had alot of pain.

As some of you know we had a appt with a Orthopedic doc for initally a recheck for Ky's Heel and Knee and Trev's Heel. Well since we had other issues come into play with the eldest we figured why not have him checked head to toe.

They did X-rays and his heel seems to have a small hairline fracture due to the tendon being so tight and pulling on his growth plate. He says it will just be there and probably heal on its own along with the issue resolving itself in a short time period. They saw no fractures or bones issues in the neck or shoulder so that was good. Just more less a muscle thing.

Even though that news was good to hear for us. The News from the doc was disturbing to Trev. His exact words were You will be out this weekend and untill you can have full range of motion and no pain you will continue to be out. oOOOOOOOOH YA! TREV was not happy! The face of total disappointment was upon us "I want to play and nobody plays my position as good as me!" and well in the end His words were "I am feeling very emotional right now and full of hate"

Ya, I know strong words YIKES!

So for Trev, it is a good thing only one more game.

As for my little man. His heel is alot better and not really hurting at all. He claims he does his exersizes at least in school for GYM, but I have my reservations. Anyway that is getting better and that is great news. I am sure that him not playing soccer now for at least a month has helped a bunch.

His Ooschgood schlauters (Spelling) is still around and still bothers him, but not as much, and I am sure that too is because of the break in soccer.

Trev's second to last game was at home. He obviously did not play.

They ended up losing 22-24. I know it sucks, but I think of it this way they could of totally lost by worse. I know....... maybe I have no Coach or player in me to feel the rage that will burst and boil over after that kind of game.
