Joe playing music for Russ!
Russ, Jenelle, Ewa and Jeff at Russ' benefit party!.... These guys are trying to plot how to get all the amazing raffle items that Joe and Jenelle put together for Russ' benefit!
This time last year Russ was in his car accident. We had just celebrated an amazing Thanksgiving with our friends and family and felt so thankful to be happy and healthy...... Today, we are even more thankful to be happy and healthy! This post is really about saying "Thank You" to everyone that helped us out after Russ' accident. We will never forget the love and friendship that you all gave us during Russ' recovery. We especially couldn't have made it through that time without my friend Beth, Joe and Jenelle. We will never be able to express our gratitude for the endless help you gave us. You were there for us every single day and we love you so much! And, for everyone that brought us wonderful meals.....Thank you!! Also, Thank You to the entire Blackhurst family for the amazing family contribution when you built carports to help us out. You are all such amazing people..........and WE LOVE YOU!!!

Whew...it's hard to see some of those photos again. I have been thinking a lot about this time last year (it was the Monday after Thanksgiving weekend-right?). I remember skiing with Russ right before at Bruce's trail enjoying how excited he gets around snow. Honestly that was probably one of the most intense moments of my life waiting for Russ to arrive at the hospital. Yes, so much to be grateful for....I am so happy for both of you and your new lives together in Montana. We miss you and look forward to seeing you at Christmas. Much love and thinking of you both.....Jenelle
Wow! I can't believe it has already been a year since that tragic day. I never saw any photos of him after the accident. He was really bruised and beat up. I am so glad he has had a full recovery and now you two are enjoying your new life in Montana. Have a happy turkey day! Can't wait to see you at Christmas!
Whoa, I can't believe that was a year ago...I remember being so worried that day hoping everything was okay, we love you guys so much and are so excited to be with you at Christmas! We were thinking of the both of you at Thanksgiving hope yours was well. Love ya, Summer
You both have been on my mind so much today. Remebering all the events of last years "Monday after Thanksgiving"...reminds us how precious life is, and how it can change in just a matter of moments. I am grateful for the time we had together at Thanksgiving dinner last year (and the many dinners shared later) and am so glad Russ recovered from the accident. You both are so strong. We miss you terribly! All our love to you today, and always. (And I love your new nephew's middle name!!)
It is crazy to think it was only a year ago! I never saw Russ in that condition it is a shock and a relief to know all is well. I never saw the car either, amazing! So glad you both are doing well and starting a new life in Montana with a HOME! Love you both and look forward to seeing you at Christmas!
Love, Cindy
