What can I say?

Hello all! We have been busy, busy since June 14th when we moved back in with my parents after Eric got a new job in Poulsbo! Shortly after vacation, as some of you may know (and even after we were packed and on our way to moving in with my parents), my mom hit a rock while riding a 4-wheeler and crushed the plateau of her Tibial bone. She is now Bionic woman.

This is her right leg, as you can see she has a plate and 7 screws. She can now proudly say as she walks through the metal detectors at the airport, "I carry my weapon on the inside, under my skin!" I am just kidding, we love giving her a hard time. It has now been 10 weeks since her surgery and she is up and walking despite the futile atempts at making her stay in bed. However, the process has been long and she tends to get discouraged about her range of motion not being what it should be. All the while Eric, Shanna and I have been staying and helping out as best we can. While staying here we have been searching for a house. We recently made an offer that was accepted and now we are dealing with loans and appraisals and everything else that goes along with buying a house! I had no idea that buying a house was such an ordeal!! We have been most grateful for the time spent here and have loved being a part of everything. So, needless to say, the reason for my almost nothing posts, is all of the above! Stay tuned for updates and some pictures on whether or not we get the house! I also spent time this morning writing some of Shanna's most frequent sayings. Look to the right below Shanna--Wild one. Enjoy!
