Update

Well here I go again tryin to keep everyone up to date on what is going on with the Vierigs here in Texas.
Brandon:
As most of you know I had back surgery on my L5-S1. They call it a L5-S1 TLIF, basicly they cut you open put a couple of metal bars and some screws in. Then they take bone from my hip and attach it to (like chicken wire) a wire mesh. Then I get to sit at home for 6 months to let it heal. We anyone who knows me I am going crazy being stuck at home. I is has been about 3 months since surgery and I feel much better. After surgery I lost the use and feeling in my left leg. They called it drop leg, I called it @#$%(sorry mom), anyway 3 months later and PT 3 times a week I can put my shoe on myself pain free. My leg is still numb from the knee down but the feeling is comming back (I Hope). Things are looking up for me and my back. I have been able to start working with my dogs agian, whitch I'm hopeing to start making some money and use some the skills I learned while I attended school at World Wide K-9. This is where I picked up my dog Chilli. I am looking forward to working with dog under the umbrella of RafterV. I have a lot to learn but we have a great teacher in my youngest brother Mark. I feel lucky that Matt, and Jamison are dog handlers and I know I can turn to them for help. They both have awesome dogs and the know how to work them. anyway enough about me, bottom line is I am alive and well here in Texas!

Something from all of us

*Hello from New Mexico, we would like to tell everyone Merry X-Mas and Happy New Year from us to you. We have been up here at Mom & Dad's for a week and we are running out of time. We are still in Texas and our little family is doing well. We miss all of you and wish we could all be together.
Brooke and I have been living in a town called Dripping Springs for about a year now. We moved into a home that my boss had, it is a 1946 ranch house. Well lets just say that it's your fixer-upper! Well with my back surgery over and done with I have come to the conclusion that I am no longer able to work on the old house. We are just waiting to find out how long I will be out of work and what I will be able to do once back to work! I'm hoping before we leave Texas that we will be able to complete my schooling, so that I can follow my dream of working beside my brothers. Brooke has supported me in all that I do so whatever it is I'm sure she will be there.
*Hello, this is Brooke!! I just wanted to say hey to everyone. This has been an interesting year. I have gone through a lot of changes; i.e. my job changed owners and management, I graduated and have been practicing Massage Therapy (luckily on my own and not as an employee) and I have started going back to church. Over all, the year started out rocky and stressful but then got a lot easier or at least easy to deal with! I am doing pretty well now and am starting to know the inner me and the woman that I am capable of being and how to get there. I am excited to see what the new year brings and hope to see all those in Brandon's family that I have not yet met and all of my best buds in Arizona. Happy holidays to everyone and good luck in the new year!
