First of all HUGE THANKS to all who have popped by and said, “HI!” It is so much fun to see who is out there and to hear what you are thinking. (If you haven’t had a chance to leave a comment yet – have I got the opportunity for you! Read on for more info.) We love being able to connect with you in some way….even if it is through the screen.

Here is the picture that Chris sent me yesterday. He’s looking studly, no?

As you can see, (or if you can’t – go here to see the set so far to compare) the swelling is going down and aside from having lips that look like he’s had some SERIOUS botox injections (which he hasn’t) Chris is starting to look pretty good.

He’s had two Doctors appointments this week. One on Tuesday and one on Wednesday and the greneral overall report is that things are going well. Chris is allowed to start eating soft foods now and to take off the bands (that are holding his head together) for eating and brushing his teeth. but he’s to keep them on the rest of the time.

Apparently they did some serious adjusting to the upper jaw and that is where all the fun started with the bleeding and all that jazz. Once again, we find out after the fact, that Chris wanted to make his situation memorable and that the whole bleeding out thing was actually pretty serious and well, we are just really happy that it all turned out well in the end. The seriousness of the surgery would account for the slower post surgery start to llife.

Chris, as usual, is not complaining (but he would be allowed to if it ever got to much for him, right Chris????), but just trucking along.

While I was waiting for him to send me a picture, I fired this off to him……

and he replied with this…..

and that got me thinking about how it might be fun to get a bunch of goofy pictures and throw them up here….

So, last night at Geli’s performance….you can go over here in a bit for more about that…I took these.

Chelle…….

and Debbie………they are definately sisters, no???

and this one of the cousins (Becca, Xani and Bee)

Now, here is where my brain starts kicking in to overdrive and where we need YOU!!!!!

I’d love to be able to post a whole bunch more goofy, funny, silly pics. It woud be fun to see and so if you were interested in contributing….we’re not looking for amazing photos of quality and beauty…these were all taken with my phone….so just a quick goofy shot…..if you’re iterested in helping Chris to not be so bored as he passes the time convalesceing or maybe just in being a part of something silly and fun, then comment and let me know if you want to e-mail a gooofy pic in to me or if you want to send me a pic from your phone. If you leave a quick comment, I’ll respond back to you with the where, when, why, how….you know, all that fun stuff.

So, what do ya think? Anyone on board?

Edited to Add:

Here is our first submission…..
