Easter 2012

 I hope you all had a great Easter. 

I was with my family.  Gotta love the fam!

We laugh so much. 

My Grandmother thought that my metal pill

crusher was a can opener the last time

I was over there.  THIS time, she came

around the corner and saw it on her counter

and thought the handles on her sink

had broken.  We probably won't let her

live this one down.  I'm glad we can laugh

about things.  In fact, that's one thing

I've been able to do pretty easily since

I woke up from the coma.  Well, not

right away, but I've haven't had to

re-learn how to laugh again. 

My family definitely keeps me laughing.

So the picture above was from Sunday.

It's all the cousins on my mom's side

except for Macy (she couldn't come

home from Texas State). 

I missed my counterpart.  

The picture below is from last Easter

(I'm with my little cousins who

I like to call THE STORM).

This picture was about nine

months after the accident.  At that time,

I couldn't stand on my own at all.  

It took two people to help me move

from my wheel chair to another chair.
In fact, I could hardly do much of anything for myself.  

It's unbelievable how far I've come.

It's like fate (or whatever you want 

to call it) took a swing at me,

but look who's standing now (LITERALLY). 

I have much to be thankful for in my life.

I hope you had a great Easter

and I hope you laughed a lot, too.
