December - Christmas lights, Church, Aggie Basketball Game, Christmas Parties, Procedure, School dance, Ice Skating, Basketball, and Dinner

 I was ready for some boring weeks.  The kids had 2 weeks of school in between Thanksgiving and Christmas so it was full of all the things.  The puppies are just the cutest when they are together.  I love them :)

Christmas lights!

Hanging of the green at our church.....the boys thought they'd hang their ornament the highest of anyone.....thankfully they didn't fall and knock the tree over.

Since Lucy is in Preteen they got to act out the Christmas story.  She was an angel this year and did a great job!

Me and Emily's puzzle!!

I was still retaining a lot of fluid so they scheduled for a little procedure to get it off...paracentesis.  It was a little painful but they got over a liter of fluid off!

Mom had an ablation done too....all went well!  But gosh come on boring days!!!

We got to have Miles one morning before school.  He is the cutest and we loved every minute of it!

handstands ALWAYS!!

Caleb's Geometry project.....geodesic dome!  He spent many hours working on it!

On Sunday a HUGE group of us went to the Tech/Aggie basketball game at Dickies arena in Fort Worth.  I was still a little on the tired side but I made it and we all had a great time!

Coach Law came to speak at FCS!

Footie PJ day!

Christmas Parties at school!

They did another procedure to enlarge the stent that was in my bile duct.  Thankfully it was just outpatient but back to the hospital I went.  All went well but it was extremely painful.  I wasn't under anesthesia for this and gosh it wasn't fun.

school dance for this cutie pie!  he had a great time!

After party.....

On Sunday, the younger two had basketball tournaments in Weatherford.  It all went well!

Caleb back at it too!

A group of us took the kids ice skating in Fort Worth during the week they were off before anyone else was off.  It was in the stockyards and it was a blast.  The kids loved it!

We stopped by to give Cassy a goodie and we were Twinkies!  Had to take a pic.

We had a gingerbread contest.  We drew names to see who was on whose team.....Caleb and Tyson vs. Weston and Lucy.  Guess who won that one?!?

ummm......

Lucy got to go with some of her friends to a cookie decorating party and gift exchange.  She had so much fun!

We took the kids to Mash'd one night.  It was fun and yummy!  We all filled out college football brackets while we ate.

Thankful to feel good and get to enjoy all the things with my kids these past few weeks!

Thanksgiving

 My family is amazing.  They did basically all the cooking and brought everything to our house.  It was so nice because I just wasn't quite feeling 100% or even close to it.  We ate yummy food and best of all just got to be together.  I couldn't even get out of my mouth what I was thankful for when it was my turn because there was way too much emotion.  ALL of this year just makes you see things SO differently.  So grateful for an awesome Thanksgiving!

Look close and you can see Murphy!  This is the Bradley's new dog and he got to come and stay.  Charlie and Rosie didn't know what to think at first but I think they had fun playing and being together.

Logan got a deer Thanksgiving week too!  My freezer will be full!  So thankful!
