Merry Christmas and Happy 2008!




We had a nice Christmas with both of our parents who came out to visit us for 2 1/2 weeks. We do wish we could've seen our siblings and their children. Our boys are so blessed to have grandparents who are so involved and love them so much. Caleb's surgery went well on the 26th. He recovered very quickly. The Children's hospital was only 3 weeks old when he had the surgery. It is very nice. I took a picture of the lobby, but the security guard yelled at me. I know I am such a rebel. Don't tell I've got the picture on the blog or they'll come after me.















Christmas morn.


Ready for his morning nap...

"Rock chalk jayhawks KaaaaaayyyyyUUUUUUUU."

We saw the lights at Tanglewood park with E -pa and Memaw. It was pretty impressive.

Caleb and I are making a Birthday Cake for Jesus. Caleb told me Jesus told him he wanted an airplane flying in the sky birthday cake, so we tried to make one.

I think Jesus liked it, except that I spelled birthday wrong. I tried to make the gas/smoke from the plane spell the letters. I'm not sure that I'm the best cake decorator.

Has anyone heard of "Angry eyebrows"--That's what Caleb is referring to from veggietales.



The hospital gave Caleb a bunch of hospital garb to get used to...

so does Elliott



Don't they look "merry". Caleb actually told Santa what he wanted this year. A Batman with wings that came off. He said this consistantly, so we had to do some last minute shopping. Not a lot of batman's out there.





Toby is crawling through an artery. The yellow stuff is plaque that builds up when we eat too much fatty foods and don't exercise.

Ken's parents and us four went to the Catawba Science Center. This is the big size Sit N Spin.

Caleb's leg surgery.

Caleb will be having surgery on his leg on the 26th of December. His cyst has gotten bigger. This might be something we have to deal with every year. I don't know we will have to see. It's a preventive against breaking his leg again.
