Today we took Gma out of the nursing home for the 1st time since she broke her hip in mid-January. Transfers from the car to the wheelchair went fairly well and after we did 3/4 of them I think we were all getting the hang of it. We went to Wykoff for Sharon & Elton Sikkink's 50th wedding anniversary party. It was held at the Wykoff Community center and Gma got to visit with a number of her Wykoff friends. I don't know what rumors have been going around town about her but everybody seemed very surprised to see her out and about. They all were commenting on how good she looked. I really think she enjoyed seeing some of her friends, although it was very loud so I think she had a hard time hearing what was going on .
After we left the Community center we stopped in to visit Florence, her sister-in-law, at her home. (this is the pic)
It was a great day. Check Flickr for more of the pics from the community center. http://www.flickr.com/photos/sarahbpics

2009-03-03 Visiting Gma
Look at that Flaming Star Amaryllis. This flower is HUGE. It took a little over a month for this flower to grow to this hieght and flower. We don't know how long the blooms will hold but we hope it will stick around for awhile. Grandma is doing well. They've started having her take steps in physical therapy. I haven't had a chance to talk with her therapist to see how it is going. Grandma reports that is is going well but it does hurt.
