Just for the fun of it!: Catching Up

Well it has been a few days, mostly because our internet has been down the last few days. Of course it goes down during the Thanksgiving holiday when we really want to use skype and see all of our family and friends. It is still not working great, but I can at least blog right now. So the last few days have been interesting. First I want to say that we had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and I am so thankful to have such a nice and loving husband, awesome son and amazing family and friends.
Thanksgiving started out great, with me going to the hairdresser. I was so excited because it had been way overdue, was was also a little hesitant because of a really bad experience while in Alicante, Spain a few years back. Good news is the hairdresser was a man, and did a great job. I took Jaxson with me and Evy watched him while he was doing my hair, and then I took him back when I was finished. He was an angel, everyone at the salon said how calm and good he was, I just laughed. After getting my hair done Jax and I returned home to find Pat just where we left him:) On the couch dying of boredom. He said if this injury ever happened again, he would be done. He just can't handle just sitting. I feel bad for him, but he will be good to go in no time!
After hanging around the house for a little while longer a few of his teammates came to the house to visit, as well as an assistant coach and the trainer. everyone brought desserts which is terrible for me because one is better than the other and I can't stop eating them. We did bring one of the desserts to Kyle's house, which is where we had Thanksgiving dinner. I didn't prepare anything because on Monday I still thought we were coming home this week. Needless to say I was packing and the last thing I was thinking was preparing dinner. Lucky for us Pat's teammate Kyle and his girlfriend Megan had us and Deon (the other American) over for dinner. It was great, turkey, stuffing, gravy, mashed potatoes, basically everything. Jaxson loved his first thanksgiving dinner, especially the potatoes and stuffing. He couldn't get enough.
Friday I had my first driving experience in Greece. Now while it was scary and the drivers here are insane, I am kind of sad it took me this long to start driving. It's not that bad, and I probably blend right in with my terrible driving:) I drove Pat to therapy, and in my mind I thought it would be an hour, maybe an hour and a half. Well We left the house at 11:15am and got home at 3:30. Luckily once again, Jax was the man and was quiet and everyone loved him. One of the trainers came over to take a picture of him. Pat had a CPM machine delivered to the house today, which he has to use for 1 hour 3 times a day, which should make rehab quicker when we go. Other than that I have just been running after crazy man, and the last two days this boy has been WALKING. It's so cute, but every time we pull out the video camera he stops and just stands there. So frustrating. We are going to do a sneak attack with the video camera tomorrow so we can catch him in action. This boy has got some great balance!
