I'm a bit behind on posting our Christmas fun while we were in SLC, Utah. But, if I'm going according to how I work these days, I'm right on time- being about a month behind.
Anyway, we had no shortage of fun with our families over Christmas and we have pictures to prove it! So, I'll let them tell the story....they do it more justice than I can with words.
Put on your seatbelt, this is sure to be a long ride...
The end!

UPPP
JR was diagnosed with a BAD sleep Apnea. I think he has had it ever since I married him, although I don't think I'm the attributing factor. ;-) I hope. Ten days ago he had a surgery called a Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP). Poor kid-
Miserable probably is not a sufficient word for what occurs after they cut out giant tonsils with a root system that was deemed by his doctor to be the equivalent of a giant iceberg-large on top, but nothing like the base of it. Not only did she cut out his tonsils, but she removed his uvula and part of his soft palate as well. So, miserable is probably too soft a description for his discomfort. But, he has been a pretty good sport about it all. Here's to hoping it solves his apnea!
