Catching up...

Sorry for being away for so long. As most of you know by now, there have been a lot of changes in our family. While the last few months have been difficult, we have managed to have some happy things happen as well. Here are a few of our happy moments.




Here is Matthew on Christmas morning checking out his goodies from Santa. We had been asking Matthew for weeks what he was going to ask Santa to bring him. His answer each time..."Santa knows already mommy. You'll see when he brings it." Santa was keeping his fingers crossed for a happy outcome.

Score 1 for Santa. This is one happy little boy!

Well, it was good while it lasted. Santa tanked on this one! Fortunately, by the end of the morning, the remote control dinosaur was a hit. That was a close one!

Here is Stephen in one of his silly "I'm being a ham" moods. He has the plastic tag from one of his gifts stuck to his nose. What a goofball! That's why we love him so much.




Score BIG for Santa! Stephen had been asking for a DSI since October.






Stephen checking out his new gadget. It took him all of 5 minutes to set it up. I didn't even know how to turn it on. Amazing!







Sadie chillin' out with her gift from Santa. That's our girl!









Hard to believe, but Stephen turned 10 in January. Happy, Happy Birthday big guy! I hope you know how much you are loved.




February 17th, Stephen got to play his recorder with some of his 4th grade classmates during a school music concert. Here are a couple of clips for your listening enjoyment!
