Jaja's Birthday and the Houston Rodeo

Jaja's birthday cake and ice cream

Jaja and all of us

At the Houston Rodeo. The brown cow at the top of the pic was the Grand Champion cow in Houston.

Clint Black

Clint Black was the performance the night of the Rodeo


Well, first things first. Erica is doing great. She can wear her hose during the day, but has to wrap her leg at night. Her leg is down more than the extra 5% we were praying for. And there isn't going to be nearly as many trips to Houston for Erica. She will have check-ups every now and then, but not very much. Yea! Praise God, and thank you for all of your prayers!! Now for the pictures. Jaja's birthday was March 11, (Wednesday) but we celebrated on Thursday with cake, ice cream, and presents. Then on Friday we went to the Houston Rodeo. It was an absolutely horrible day to go anywhere. It was rainy, windy, and about 45 degrees. It was awful. But we stayed inside for most of the time. We saw lots of cute little animals, lots of pretty big animals, and cool stuff. It was really cool watching the actual Rodeo that night, and listening to Clint Black was awesome. It was a really fun day! We are actually on spring break this week, and next week also. We have been cleaning a lot. Mom made us go through our rooms & clothes & closets. And Kayla started soccer. She is really excited. She has been waiting forever to start. She still needs cleats (very badly) but she is loving it.

Jaja is "grandpa" in polish. And yes he is polish - at least 50%; but maybe 100%. Which makes me polish also. :) Thanks for all your help & prayers on behalf of Erica - it means the world to us!! Shelly
