Dad's Finally Home




On Wednesday evening (June 24th) Carol, Mom, & I went and picked up Dad Peters and drove him home in his own car. The next morning a nurse from Tuality Hospital gave us instructions on taking care of Dad. Shay & Michael drove in from Boise, ID the weekend before his release (good to see them!). Dad enjoys being in his own bed. Today Carol, Mom, & Dad sat in the back yard and threw the ball for Payton. Dad said he's really glad to be away from Rehab.

Madison's 7th Birthday






Madison's real birthday was on the 12th of June. But, we celebrated today! Kelly & Etienne brought cake and goodies. Carol, myelf and Mom Peters helped eat - great Subway sandwiches!

Carol and the kids made a trip to the Hillsboro Rehab Center to bring Dad Peters some cake...but, he was sleeping pretty hard.
Way to go Madison...you only have 50 years to go to catch up to Papa!

What a week!

Congratulations Kelly!!! You did it! Your goal of Elementary Education is going to become a reality. Portland State University graduates, families, and friends filled the Rose Garden yesterday. Now comes the hard part - finding that perfect job!
Oh, Yeah, don't forget to keep planning for your upcoming wedding (next month).

Dad Peters Graduates to Rehab



Dad Peters was released from the hospital and transported to the Hillsboro Rehabilitation Center on June 2, 2009. Its only two blocks from his doctor's office. He's eating alot better and he's never lost his sense of humor. His health is improving on a daily basis - thank you all for your thoughts, prayers and personal visits.

My concern is consistant mental awareness - one day he's sharp as a tack, the next day he wants to know where he is and why he's there. Carol is taking Mom & Dad to his doctor for total evaluation on Wednesday, June 10.
