Father's Day Fun

We went to Brownfield to celebrate Father's Day today. We did the usual church then lunch thing and I have to say that I'm so thankful for the 'usual'. Jay and I got a reminder on Friday that life can change in an instant and that the 'usual' isn't guaranteed. It sounds cliche but I'm thankful to be looking at this holiday through a renewed set of lenses. Church was great and lunch and company was even better! My mom made ham, scalloped potatoes, green beans, salad, homemade rolls and homemade banana pudding. I wasn't able to partake in the tastiest parts of the meal but thankfully that's getting easier. 

Owen is FINALLY getting better!! His last allergy tests showed that he's severely allergic to eggs, not dairy. It's a little frustrating to have been on the wrong track for several months but we're so happy to see his hair coming back and his skin softening again! He sooo happy too!! He's definitely feeling like his old self. 

We ate, opened a few gifts and then Kay made us leave to be home in time to watch Tech in the College World Series. Sadly, we lost to TCU, but we have another game to go! 

Here are a few pictures of the day:

Joel and I hit the Dad jackpot and these boys are pretty lucky to have him as their Grandad!

Well I have to wrap it up. I got a little ambitious today and signed up for hot yoga at 5:30am tomorrow. I'm sleeping in my yoga clothes and have already paid so that I can't back out! I've read that hot yoga can good for Hashimoto's or bad depending on how your body reacts. I'm obviously hoping to be on the side since Pilates twice a week isn't enough exercise and regular yoga classes aren't offered early enough to fit my schedule...that I know of anyways.
