Christmas tree farm




Wow, that was a short winter wasn't it??? We have been blessed with nice Spring like weather here this weekend..

Allison found a Christmas tree farm not too far from here and insisted that we go.. We love live Christmas trees and I thought it was a pretty good idea to go check it out. We have always been one to buy a live tree but have never been to a place where you could tag one and come and cut it later. We were pleasantly surprised!! This place was fantastic!! We were able to walk around and after much looking we found the perfect tree for us.. We tagged it, and we will go back in a week or two to cut it down and bring it home.. A new Wade family tradition to say the least.

We all went to Cracker Barrel this morning for breakfast.. Had a great breakfast but today hasn't been one of Dawson's best days.. He got all antsy before the pancakes could be delivered. I was using the " jump the peg" game they have there on the table as a therapy tool ( which was working great) he is really good at putting the pegs back in the holes again by the way!! ( Way to go Dawson!!) but after the third round of doing this he took the pegs and chunked them. ( right at the two nice ladies sitting right beside us) to which they replied.." its ok, we have children too"

Lady, if you only knew!!!!

We did make it through.. The rest of the day has been off and on good mood/bad mood.

But let me say this.. Dawson in a bad mood today with no seizures is HEAVEN compared to one of his BEST days with seizures so praise God he is the way he is now..

Today is day 57!! 57 days of glorious seizure freedom!! All glory and praises to God!!

Much love to all of you

We are going to the Christmas tree farm here Friday. We love going. It's been hot here too. The kids are loving getting to outside. I'm so happy to see Dawson enjoying himself.

Love y'all,
