Wednesday 1/26
Today was an off day for us. No appointments, just a day together before surgery tomorrow. We were able to sleep in, which was nice. After breakfast we enjoyed an amazing time in prayer talking to our amazing Jesus. We were both so thankful for this time.
So what do you do if you have a full day in San Antonio (or any place for that matter)? Well you go visit your friendly Ikea of course. Well at least Tammy and Bryan did. We were looking for a low cost pillow case for Tammy's pillow for use at the hospital. While we did not find one, we enjoyed a slow, leisurely stroll through the store. It is fun to see the different layouts and displays. Of course there were a number of babies with their mom's that we could make faces at as they walked by.
A quick trip to Target to get a couple of last items, lunch at Chick-Fil-A, and then we headed off to take a nice hike at a local park. This was in the Hill Country of San Antonio. We ended up on a nice 3.5 mile hike. About 1.5 miles of this was on some very step and interesting trails. Once we went up, then down, then way back up, things kind of leveled out. Needless to say we realized how out of shape we are. Weather was a perfect temp with clouds to take a hike. We enjoyed the time in outdoors alone. While we were walking at a normal pace, there were of course two different people that were in great shape running up trail. We both agreed that there is definitely wisdom with age. At least it made us feel better!
Tammy got stuff packed for the hospital, we made final document checks, face-timed with Sarah and then off to bed.
Tomorrow calls very early. We will be at the hospital at 6:30 am. Surgery is scheduled to start at 8:30 am and lasts around eight hours. It could go a little less or longer.
We both felt such peace today. We know it is from all the prayers. Thank you every one who is lifting us up in prayer.
