Dan & Emma's night out.

      

Looks like AOHELL is at it again. I tried posting these pics separately and it wouldn't let me edit them, grrrrrrr. Anyways, last night Dan and Emma attended a Union Ball. They got all dressed up, and looked fabulous. Dan was worried he wouldn't be able to hide the turtle shell brace he has to wear for his back and ribs, but Emma worked her magic and Dan looked great. He had to take his crutches with him, because he can't stand more then a couple minutes at a time without them. They were able to dance to 2 very slow songs, which was so nice. Dan was able to see his co-workers and thank them for all that they have been doing for him.

I gave Emma my camera to take so she could get pics of the food. She only got 3 pics, but wow. One is of the fruit table. All fruits were handcut and carved, it looks beautiful. Another pic is of King Crab legs and a big kettle of melted butter. The last food picture is a beautiful ice sculpture of a ship sitting in the middle of a huge pile of steamed shrimp. Oh my I could stand in that spot near those shrimp all night, lol.

Then there's a pic of my granddaughter Adrianna who woke up just in time to greet mommy and daddy when they walked in the door. Emma and Dan had a nice evening out, which is something they haven't had in such a long time. Dan was tired when they got home, and his back was hurting. Emma helped him take off his suit and put on his pajamas and slippers. Then she gave him his pain medication. Rebecca went with me over to Emma's so I could babysit the kids. She spent the night over there, but I came home. I was not about to sleep on Emma's couch if I didn't have too, lol. I got home at 1:30, took a sleeping pill and crashed for 9 hours. Jim is out working on someone's computer. He'll pick up Rebecca on the way home. I am going to jump in the shower, get dressed and put away the clothes Jim washed and dryed this morning.

THINK SPRING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  5. Emma and Dan deserve to get out like this more than anybody I can think of right now.  You're so sweet to be there to babysit so that they can.  They looked great!  Emma looked radiant, and Dan looked very, very handsome. Please tell them both.

  17. It was so great to see these beautiful photos of Emma and Dan on their night out.  I just think they are evidence of a real miracle.  I do hope that Dan will be able to be patient with however long his recovery time needs to be.  He is pioneering when it comes to this kind of injury.  He is probably one of a kind!  Gerry
