December happenings

We went to the Billy Graham Library for christmas. They had a live Nativity, carriage rides, stories for the children, carolors, and then you can also take a tour of the life of Billy Graham. He is a phenomenal man of God. I would actually like to go on the tour, but our children would not sit through it. Maybe Some day.







Ken, Caleb, & Toby in front of a Christmas Tree at the Billy Graham Library.


Toby, Caleb, & my big belly making cookies. It was the most stressful thing I've ever done. They played with the cookie dough like it was play dough. We made cookies with my friend Tabitha and her two boys....We made cookies last year, but Toby napped during the event...
I guess Evan thought it was cold in our house--he is making cookies with his coat on!

Oh good, he finally took his coat off--but not the hat.


Ken made these gingerbread houses for the teachers this year...the roof opens up and we put some peppermint fudge inside.
Our neighbor's little girl, who Toby calls memma.
He is putting the moves on her...He is pretty sly.


Caleb saw Santa, but Toby just hung out behind my legs, too afraid to go near Santa. He does the same thing with the Chick-fil-a cow.
"let there be peace on earth..." they aren't hugging...someone is going down.



Brothers in the Bubble Bath.

Simple Joys.

Silly faces.


Caleb's soccer team was undefeated this season. (16 games-2 tournements, & the county tournement) They each got two medals and one trophy for the season. They also got a picture in the paper. The team got a trophy to put in the elementary school. Way to go Lasers! We had a lot of fun and enjoyed getting to know the parents. Hopefully Caleb will want to play in the spring with the same team.

Update on Caleb's surgery and pregnancy

By the way, Caleb recovered VERY well from his surgery. It is truly amazing how fast kids recover. His X-ray looked good and everything. I will update my blog as soon as I get a burst of energy. This baby is slowing me down--not to mention I seemed to have a high glucola reading so here it goes again for the 6th time...I have to drink that nasty drink. I will probably get diabetes at an early age too. Anyway, December is a great month for dr's appointments...you know there isn't anything else to do.
