We have had a great weekend! Both of our fundraisers went so well! I want to thank everyone who helped us out with those. Parker's Sand and Gravel was great to donate there shop and time for the garage sale. Everyone at the Hillman horse sale helped out and the day ran so good there as well.

The best part of our weekend was after the horse sale we all went over to see Hadley. We all tromped through the hospital with spurs and cowboy hats on and when we got to Hadley's door and started to go in Hadley lit up with the biggest smile on his face. It was so wonderful to see him do that and be so happy. We all stayed for a while and talked and joked with Hadley. He did get 20 dollars from Dave. Everyone has a little game going on with Hadley if he can reach far enough to grab the money he gets to keep it, when this is all said and done Hadley will be rich and everyone else is going to be broke.

Today Hadley has made a huge step and has actually said some words. He told Randy to stop when Randy was teasing him and poking him and also said pears. This is so great for us to know that Hadley can talk and wants to talk. It just comes to show that hard work and determination does pay off. I think that Hadley is definitely wanting to do everything but just needs a little help learning how to control his brain and his body over again.

We truly appreciate everything that everyone has done to help us. The garage sale was amazing the donations and all the people that helped set up, sell everything and then come back and pack everything up that didn't sell was so wonderful.

Thanks Again,
Kimorie

  1. So glad to hear things are going well and Hadley continues to improve. Thanks so much for sharing what happened-definitely an accident that no one had control over. I agree that people who truly love horses always will, and if given the choice, will always get back in the saddle. Your family's situation has given me insight into my own so I appreciate your time and response. Way to go Hadley-we'll keep pulling and prayin for you!
