OOPS!

Correction -- James plays(ed) Modern Warfare 3 -- a bit different than what I said.
Christmas is upon us. The weather is being so nice!!!
Isaac got accepted to the Masters Program at ISU and he is working at a credit union in IF. Becky is still working at Michaels. So yup, you guessed it, grandma babysits Xander. He can be a stinker some days...especially by the end of the day when he is sure mom and dad are not returning. Wears me out!!! :)
Michael got his mission call to Iowa Des Moines Feb 15 2012.
James is taller than us all now. I think he is pushing six foot. I had to buy new sunday dress pants. The salesman tried to talk me out of getting 30x32's. I nearly gave in and then I said Nope, I'd rather return them if they're too long. James put them on this morning and they were barely long enough...Hopefully he will make do for a few months!!!
Kayla and Abe are expecting baby #4 June 23rd!! Hope all goes well for them. Whew! What a busy busy life! CR and I didn't have our babies that close, tehe. Alissa is due also come June-ish. Not sure on a date yet. Yup, that will give her three. And put CR and I at 15 grandbabies!!
Reese (Alissa's) was awful sick this last two weeks. The docs had her on antibiotics for a UTI and ran a dye test in her kidneys. Thankfully all is well.
I think we're all hanging in there. Grateful for all our blessings. Thankful I have the strength to do all I do. Looking for some quiet time...yeah, I heard you laugh!

Thanksgiving

You'd think that I'd pull out a camera when most of the kids get together....but NOPE. Well, I should say, I tried. I was too busy making and doin'. And then when I did think about getting pictures the batteries were dead.

James and TJ went to Blast-Off for his b-day and well had a Blast climbing walls and laser tagging each other til their hearts content. Then sat in James' room and play World of Warfare 3. They played it for three days straight and beat the game a few times.

Michael Skype's a friend in Arizona nearly every night...She's a cutie!!

Oh and I've been busy with Christmas. Wish I could post pictures...it's no fair that I can't. LOL
