Family Dinner at Houston's


Finished the week off with a lighter day today.  J.T.  Said he wanted to dress up in something other than athletic gear.  He wanted to look Fresh and Clean!!!   Christie and I got a little afternoon rest. Peyton Rolled into Town All Sassy!!!  We headed out for his first Dinner in a Restaurant.  We pushed down Peachtree Street to Houston's .  Our Favorite Local place.  It reminds us of The Chop House back home.  After a small Family squabble which is very normal for us. Over who and how things needed to be done the safest.  We made it and had an Awesome time.  Great food ,  Great conversation.  Just something Normal like we always do.  The only thing missing was Jacob.  We missed him so much, but he arrives tomorrow.  He stayed home to attend Zander Harris's Nerf War Birthday Party. We pushed back to Shepherd and realized one thing.  From now on we are loading up in the car.  Traveling long distances on the side walks of Atlanta is not for us!!!   We had some surprise gifts today from a little fellow named Hadley Johnson, His brother Tripp and his Parents Dustin and Amanda.  They brought Basketballs down to donate to Shepherd and brought Home Grown Maters and T-shirts for us and J.T. .  They also delivered Grainger Gear from the Grainger High Football, Baseball , and Guidance office.  We ended the evening with J.T. Trying to make thank you videos for some folks.  Well we actually only got one done.  The out takes were so hilarious.  We laughed until our bellies hurt. He finally finished one after 15  attempts.  J.T.  Made his Sissy Bears night by asking her to stay the night.  He told her    " I'm not gonna wake you up and need anything.  I just want you to stay over and watch T.V with me and hang out with me".   That makes a Mom and Dad Proud!!!
Lastly we got some Awesome News about the Golf Tournament!!!  The Response has been Well just like Everything that has happened in response to our struggle Overwhelming. .  Really we are just so Humbled  at the outpouring of Love and Support.   Please Check his Site www.thefightfor5.com for the Exciting News!!!!!!   We Give All The Glory to God for Today and Every Day The Lord Gives us.  We are so Thankful for All the Progress J.T. has made this week.  We value just as everyone should just the little things.  You don't realize until something like this what a Blessing just the Simplest Thing is.  Thank You All so much!!!
