Today we tried to have as normal a day as possible. My wife and I went to church for the first time in quite awhile. Through all of this I truly believe God was watching over me and made sure I made it through the way I did. That is the only explanation I have for why I did not end up the way many of the hospital staff had said was typical for c-1 fracture patients. Many times I was told I was lucky to be alive. It was nice to give my thanks to the lord for everything he has done for me and the support he has shown us in the greatest time of need for us.
Later that afternoon we made our way to the lake. This place holds a special place in my heart. This is where my wife and I were married. Every year Mindy's aunt & uncle have a big BBQ. The people who live on the lake all pitch in to pay for a big fireworks display. I spent most of the day sitting in a deck chair watching them all play volleyball and bocce ball. it was our typical fourth of july, rainy and windy. It didn't stop them from playing in the rain though. We had the full spread of food and desserts to make may day go by. Finally the show started around 10:15 and as always was very entertaining and beautiful. It is amazing what they can do with powder and explosives. We finally got home around 11:30pm, What a long day.
