Brad's "little brother" Joe who isn't so little anymore, had his senior prom last Saturday. We ventured to Fulda for the grand march so we could see him all decked out in his tux and meet his date, Cassie Wilkening. It was neat to see the grand march, however, both Brad and I felt very old when we left. Unfortunately, Joe's prom night got cut short. Shortly after the "after prom bash" got started, there was an accident. He was playing on a large inflatable and was ejected off and hit the bleechers. He had a serious laceration on his face. He was brought to Worthington hospital where they discovered he had a couple of facial bone fractures. He was then shipped by ambulance to Sioux Falls. There, he met with a plastic surgeon and received stitches. After the swelling goes down, he has to return to the doctor and decide the extent of the fractures and if any surgeries will be needed.

We are happy Joe is okay and pray for a speedy recovery.
