Happy Fathers Day to all you Dad's and a SUPER DUPER OOOBER FATHERS DAY to Dennis. Dennis has worked 7 days a week between Jerry's room and his real job for 4 months. He may have had about 5 days off in that time. Thank you Big D for working so hard we love and appreciate you sooooo much. I hope you enjoyed your weekend off and steak dinner, now get back to work :-o ....just kidding.
Jessica had a softball tournament over the hill this weekend and one of Dennis' favorite things is watching her games, so he was pretty much in hog heaven. They lost the first game and one the second yesterday, then won the first two and lost the third today which put them in 5th of about 2o for northern California, way to go Ray's. Jessica batted something like 15 for 20 with a couple of walks not a bad weekend at the plate, you go girl!!!!
Thank you Marci for working so hard on the Giants ballgame and thank you Trish for all the promotion at the Little League Tournament of Champions. We have had some on line orders for tickets thank you to all who have ordered early online your tickets will be mailed tomorrow. I'm so excited for the Giants game it is going to be so much fun, I can't wait to see you all there. Go Giants!!! By the way we get to throw the first pitch as well as pick someone to sing the national anthem, we are going to have to come up with a fun way to decide who will do these....any idea's? Anybody interested in doing either send me an email to katie@followingjerry.com.
For those living near Gottschalks they're going out of business and are having an incredible sale, I got Jerry a new recliner about 70% off, it was such a great deal. I'm excited because it fits him perfectly so we don't have to prop his arms with pillows any more. Ususally we have to put a pillow under each arm which on a warm day causes him to over heat pretty quickly. The arms on this chair are closer together so his arms can sit on them without falling off. The most exciting thing about the chair is it has a vibrating back which in my mind has to help with circulation and prevention of pressure sores. Maybe it will stimulate his back muscles or maybe it will just be relaxing at any rate he sits higher in the chair and feels more comfortable so that's good.
Jerry had a wonderful time last night, he had a virtual poker party. Jerry was excited to have his friends over and was pretty amped up most the day. So thank you Luke, Kevin, Issac, Jesse, Gevin and Chris. The boys all brought their lap tops over and played on line poker, they had a hard time figuring out how to set up a private table and I think half the night was spent on setting up. Jerry had fun none the less and it was so great just to see him chillin with his friends.
Please keep our kids in your prayers until each has recovered, keep hope alive and wait for the miracle. Lord release complete healing for Tim Hatch, Allie and Jerry, heal their bodies, heal thier minds, and restore them to health. Thank you Lord for all the blessings you have already given.
God Bless,
Katie

Hey guys,
So glad Jerry got a new recliner. Now I'm going to have to go to Gottschalks at lunch today.
Trish and I had so much fun watching the Little League kids in Aptos. I kept seeing Luke and Gabe at that age. (now 19 & 20) The parents from all teams seemed to respond to the S.J. Giants game tickets even if they could not attend, they donated their tickets to the inner city youth to attend.
Thanks Santa Cruz County parents!
Katie,
The Monster M is so awesome. You did a fabulous job and I know Jerry will love it!
Jerry,
The guys had a blast playing poker. Next time serious money will be won by one of you.
Dennis,
Happy Belated Fathers Day to you. Katie said it all.
Lord, please shine your light on Jerry, Allie and Tim Hatch. Continue to give strength to each of them and their families. Heal their minds and bodies and lift up their hearts and spirits. Amen
Lots of love and prayer to all,
Gretchen
Love the pic of the kitty. That cat knows how to relax! I'm so excited that Jerry has his room and new recliner. Everything counts and makes a difference. I continue to pray for you all and love getting to know your family through your blog. Go Jessica! Sounds like you are quite the ball player. I just remember seeing her at RCP in the dining hall. Who knew that under that apron lived a great batter!? Hope to see you all at the San JOse game!

Thanks Dennis for showing us how it's done! You ROCK! Glad you got some down time with the kitty - heee-heee.
Thank you, Father, for men like Dennis! He is fierce and loyal and wants only the best for his family and community. Continue to bless him with good health as he strives to provide for his family. What he has accomplished in such a short amount of time has clearly been a feat. Father, he is your son and we thank you for the example he has set. Amen
Lots of Love,
The Proffitts
