Catching up...

Paging Dr. Gann.....

The holidays were wonderful, but it's nice to be getting back to normal. Prior to the holidays it was next to impossible to spend any family time together, but now that finals are done (Straight A's!!!!!!) and work has slowed down some for Jeremy, we're getting back to doing fun things and taking little road trips together again. Health wise, it's been a challenging time. It seems like everyone has been sick and in and out of the hospital. Grandaddy, Steven, my Mom, and Great Grandad (and that's just family) have all spent time in the hospital, but we're thankful that they all seem to be doing better and recovering well.

First Snow!!!

Abby LOVES snow! You wouldn't think she was 8 years old when you see her playing in the snow.

As soon as the kids noticed it snowing they went running for their snow suits and had to go outside. If it keeps snowing like it is now, we'll be digging the sleds out of the basement! WooHoo!!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Meredith and I were sporting the same Thanksgiving hair-do.



We had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We started the day with having my family come over to cook, which turned out to be a lot of fun. Jeremy didn't have any cooking to do, so he made his own fun taking pictures of himself.

Dingle Bells...

Jacob is so proud of himself. He knows all the words to Jingle Bells. Listen for yourself...

Fun with the Pascarella's

Jeremy and Josh went out to help Grandma and Grandad with the Christmas display, so the kids and I spent the day with the Pascarella's. They had a blast and were totally exhausted by the time we left. Jacob was begging to stay, though.

Jake's Preschool Thanksgiving Feast

There's nothing cuter than seeing a bunch of 3 and 4 year olds sing songs together! Jacob, however, looked like he would have rather been getting teeth pulled than up there with his classmates. When the performance was finished, I asked Jake why he wouldn't sing and he said it was because he was afraid that we would hear him. :)

Future Hockey Star

Maybe it's because I'm his mom, but in my opinion, Rudy has natural talent for any sport he tries. We played some hockey this morning and I was impressed!!! I told Jeremy that Rudy would make a great athlete and Jake would make a great coach. That kid loves to make up rules. He prefers to make up rules and tell you how to play the game rather than play it. :)
