Achilles Tendon Surgery

My vantage point for awhile.

I ruptured my Achilles Tendon coaching Jaelyn's basketball team on Wednesday, Nov. 1st.  Marcus was in CA for work and Oma was at home watching Ben & Brooke.  I knew I ruptured it right away - felt the internal "pop" sound and fell to the floor.  That feeling is the worst feeling in the world - at first you look around to see who kicked you in the leg and realize no one was around you!  Marcus got on the 11:30pm flight and was home by 3:30am to help me figure out who to see for surgery.  Thank goodness he was able to fly home within a couple hours of it happening!

Surgery happened on Nov. 7th.  It will be a LONG road to recovery.  6-8 weeks non weight bearing.  Who knows when I can walk, much less drive again.  Thankful for the tribe that is in my life that will help pick up the pieces.

The Rockstars II - U7 soccer

 Daddy was able to coach Brooke's team!  She loved having him there each Friday night.  Brooke asked Jaelyn if she could use the same name Jaelyn's rec team used...super cute!

 Jaelyn wanted to be the assistant coach - super fun for her to be out there helping run drills!


 Soccer is FUN!!  Especially after you score!

 Snacks are the best!
