Hello everyone! It is a sunny morning, and I have a good cup of coffee by my side. I’m going to savor it because after I do, I need to get a move on! We have a busy two days ahead of us. This afternoon Wyatt and I are headed into Ann Arbor for the afternoon to hang out and check out some of the city, then we are checking into a hotel for the night, where Billy will meet us early in the evening for dinner and of course to stay overnight. Then tomorrow we have a bright and early appointment at Mott’s for Wyatt, with a new epileptologist. I am super nervous and hopeful about his appointment, so prayers and good vibes everyone!
Tomorrow is also my birthday! I don’t think we are going to do much, it will be a busy day with Wyatt but this weekend I am requesting that Billy make my new favorite thing, the Dolly Parton Banana Cake! I love Dolly, don’t you? My brother actually made us all this cake last Saturday and I am in love with it. It is freaking awesome. It is a mix but you also need to buy other things as well to go with it, like the vanilla wafers, banana pudding, etc.
Last Saturday we actually spent just bopping around visiting family, which was nice. It was nice to catch up with everyone! We saw Billy’s parents and then went to my brother’s and visited with him and his family and my mom who was over there as well.
Sunday I went to church, then came home and cleaned, so not too exciting but necessary. We are hosting Thanksgiving this year due to my brother’s surgical recovery, and this house needs to be whipped into shape! Other than that, it has been slow around here, just school and cleaning and chilling out with family. Nothing special but very nice.
And that my friends, is a very very short catch up! What has been going on in your worlds?

Your day tomorrow sounds great and I hope Wyatt’s appointment the day after goes well. We’re having a small TG here — just us and Rick’s mom, though kids may be part of the weekend. Off to Livonia to babysit this weekend. Should be crazy, should be fun!

Happy birthday tomorrow, Erin! You should try to find Arne and Carlos’ YouTube video where they bake that cake. They love Dolly and collect most everything. Arne even cut pieces of the box to put in his scrapbook!
I hope your new doctor gives you good information. Sending your many prayers and positive vibes.

All the good vibes for Wyatt’s appointment. I’ve seen the mix of Dolly Parton’s cake but never really looked at it. It does sound fantastic! The very happiest of birthdays! I am of the opinion they should be celebrated for at least a week and preferably the entire month.

Oh my gosh. This cake. My brother made it for us the other day and I ate two pieces which is crazy. And then I asked Billy to make it for my birthday. So I must really like it…..
And thank you Katherine!! It went well, and I left feeling like we had a few more options ahead of us. 🙂
