Another week of less-than-stellar news and roadblocks, but we're chugging along, high fiving each other when whenever and wherever it makes sense to do so.
One
Will has been dealing with a pretty serious back injury (more on that in a future post, when I have the bandwidth to talk through the ups and downs of the diagnosis), and while he's still far from recovered, this week he was able to start physical therapy. I'm so grateful for his positive attitude and commitment to doing everything in his power both to heal and to get back on the field with his teammates.

Last Friday's "Night Lights" was one for the books.
- Our high school (A&M Consolidated) beat crosstown opponent (College Station) after six straight losses in this rivalry match up. After going toe to toe for three quarters, Consol pulled away in the fourth to bring home the victory. Will said it was the most exciting football game he's ever attended.
- My friend Kristen, who moved away back in July, made a spontaneous trip to College Station for the game. I didn't get to spend much time with her, but I did get to hug her which made me happy.
- Hallie's friend Kara, who moved away in August, also came back to College Station last weekend. She surprised Hallie, Avery, and Abby when she showed up at the game, and their reunification was so sweet.
Three
On Saturday night - after an 8.5-hour day of Nutcracker-ing - we had Hallie's headshots taken for the Nutcracker program. Per usual, "the Ashleys" (Siegert of Fig-Mint Photography and Lindsey of Ashley Lindsey Photography) did a fantastic job and I can't wait to share it...next week! 😉

On Sunday afternoon we assembled Hallie and friends' mums for homecoming! Consol's HOCO isn't until the end of October, but College Station's HOCO is this weekend so we needed to finish these accessories ahead of tomorrow night's dance.
They missed Kara... |
Five
These two little babes moved on to another foster, but they're still available for adoption if you'd like to add an adorably tail-less tuxedo or a chatty adventurer to your family!
Happy weekend, friends!
