Time with Daddy...


Dallas flew home yesterday (yay!!) to spend a couple days with us before his surgery.  After 3 cortisone shots, lots of rehabbing, trying to play, hurting so much he can't move, a trip to Texas where they discovered a cyst in his back on a nerve, killing the nerve through a procedure, here we are.  We are headed tomorrow morning early back to Dallas, Texas where he is having back surgery.  So weird going back there.  Last time I was 4 months pregnant with Reese...life sure changes fast.  Dallas amazes me as a man.  I think if you look up the word perseverance his name would be next to it.  
We had a great date night last night.  Today we all partied McPherson style.  Reese is LOVING her Daddy being here and hardly left him alone today.  We swam, cleaned the back deck, played soccer, skipped (Reese can skip ridiculously good & cute if I do say so myself...) and just had a ball.  We will be gone for the weekend and Reese is spending the 4th with her fan club.  Boo, D, Papa & Gigi.  She won't miss us at all I'm sure!
Sorry the above pic stinks...We played all day and she sat down for a minute giving us all rest, so I snapped a pic.  At least their both in it, right?? Their actually talking and she's telling him she's "TWO" and trying to make a two with her fingers...
