Finally got to sit down and change pictures on the blog. Renovations continue however we did get our dining room back so can sit in front of the computer in comfort. Matt's laptop is on not working so I couldn't even use his. Hoping to get it fixed soon. We are having the worst luck keeping things running!
Mom, dad, and Matt went to Jacki and Gary's this weekend for a visit. Some friends of Matt's who he had met while going to school in Calgary invited everyone to a Grey Cup party for Sunday. Everything worked out great. They were able to take the portable ramp and everyone did there best to make Matt feel right at home. Gary even shaved Matt's beard and it looks so much better. Saturday night Nolan came over to play games and they stayed up until 2 am. Matt didn't sleep great because of the pain in his neck. The OT thinks it is because Matt's manual wheelchair is not the right size for him, which it isn't. He just borrowed it from another patient while in Saskatoon. Great west Life has agreed to buy him a new one built for his size so ordering a new one as soon as possible. Van is working great so that is a blessing.
Jacki phoned today to tell us Bobby was crying this morning when he woke up and Uncle Matt was gone. Of course Jonmarie and Shaunie were so happy to see him back in Red Deer, so there may be a few scraps over Uncle Matt in the future. Jonmarie loves playing Wii games with him and is starting to get quite good at it. But she sure hates to lose! And Uncle Matt won't let her win which I find funny because he was such a poor loser when he was young and always wanted us to let him win.
Weather continues to be great with a high of +5 today and still no snow. We are definitely not complaining. Keep praying!

Hi Matt and family;Uncle Wince had a good talk with your Dad yesterday, so we are pretty much caught up with how things are going in Alberta. We love the new photos, such a good looking bunch eh? I mean to write more often, my best time would be evenings but then Jake needs to be on the computer.Sounds like many prayers are being answered, God is so good. Matt all your hard work is and will continue to pay off, everyone is so proud of you.We pray every blessing on all of you. What a team!!
Wince has just come in the apartment, guess we are going to decorate the Lobby now, he is starting to get the tree up and needs some help. Keep smiling, much love Aunty Carol, Uncle Winston
