Doc's Surgery and Coming Home

My dad, Doc, had open heart surgery at the end of June. Payton and I made the trip to Houston for the surgery. Doc made it through with no problems at all and is the proud owner of a new heart valve (a pig valve, that is!) and a repaired aorta. What more could a man want? We were all in Waco a week ago to welcome him home.

Landon and Reagan worked so hard on a banner to welcome Doc home. They were so proud of their work!
Here it is on the fence ready to be seen by Doc!
A welcome home party would not be the same without balloons, cards and a cookie cake!
watching Doc read his cards...They both seemed a little worried about him!

Doc,
We are so thankful you have this mess behind you! Here's to a speedy recovery! We love you so, so much!
