Happy Birthday Brooke!

We celebrated Brooke's birthday yesterday after church. Her real birthday was on the 3rd but she likes to stretch it out as much as possible. On Friday they went and cut down their Christmas tree and on Saturday, they went out to dinner. Sunday we had a family party and then on Monday Brooke went to lunch with her friends. Boy, that's the way to do it!

Hope you had a great day(s), we sure love you!

Thanksgiving 2010



Thanksgiving this year was very different. Wynn had his 5th chemo treatment on the day before Thanksgiving. Because of this, we couldn't go to my Mom's. The Dr.'s have asked that Wynn try to stay clear of a lot of people right after a treatment. Afraid of him getting sick. Anyway, all my family was together at my Mom's and I was home. I felt so bad but it was nice having dinner and being able to have all of us sit around the table. Before we ate, we went around the table and we all got to say what we were thankful for. It was so nice and very touching. A very different Thanksgiving that what we usually have but I must say that I truly did enjoy it. We have a wonderful family and it was so nice for us all to be together.





Wynn with Camden, just five weeks old.

We made gingerbread houses but, shh, we used graham crackers instead of me spending hours making gingerbread. Guess what. . . they turned out just as cute!

Matt got real creative with his, something that was easy for him since he was using cardboard and graham crackers.
Just had to share a picture of me with my darling grand babies! Oh, I just love them so much, they make life so enjoyable.
Sweet little Camden!
He is getting more alert evert time I see him.
