Thank you all so much for the out pouring of support Friday. I swear your prayers really worked because my grandfather made some improvements. He passed his swallow test which means he won't have to have a feeding tube. They thought he would need one permanently so this was nothing short of a miracle and how prayer really works. He is still in the hospital and it is going to be a long road to recovery but he is getting a little better. I thank you for praying and thinking of my family during this difficult time.
Since he was doing better on Friday my parents encouraged Matt and I to go to my friend Jenna's wedding in Blowing Rock. In light of everything we had been dealing with all week it was nice to get away for the weekend.
Thanks to my girl Katherine who helped me find the Milly Sari Hostess dress I wanted on sale! I am so happy with it and feel like it is something I will love forever!
Matt bought Sterling his first pair of Cowboy Boots while we were there. Yes they are pleather- this is what happens when men are allowed to shop. I have to admit I made fun of Matt for buying them but Sterling loves them.
He has been wearing them everyday! Kind of cute in a tacky way right?
I was sad to leave Blowing Rock it is so beautiful up there and such a nice change from the beach.
But as sad as I was to leave I was so happy to get home to see my little nugget. I missed him like crazy!
He is now obsessed with Hammocks since my sister has one and he has played on it all week. Looks like we need one too now.
Cuddling with my favorite man!
I hope everyone's week is off to a great start and once again Thank you for the prayers and keep them coming!

Happy to hear your grandfather turned the corner!! Your dress is ahhmazing!! Love! My little girls had pink boots! I wish I would have saved them for a keepsake.
Love your blog, and so happy to hear good news. Love the boots! My oldest son wore nothing but boots (cowboy, frog wellies, monster rain boots, fireman boots) for months. His (and my) faves were the cowboy boots. He even wore them with his little john-johns. Enjoy it, you'll remember it with a smile.
Prayer works, my Dear.

Your little man is too cute! Pleather boots are probably fine since he'll probably outgrow them by fall and you'll need to buy a bigger size!
