Tim's Surgery

Before

After

Tim had surgery for a hernia. The surgery went very well, they actually found another hernia while repairing the other one, so they fixed that as well. Tim had a very hard time coming out of it and I was bummed because he didn't say anything funny while he was doped up!

Christmas Party

Santa came to Isaac's preschool Christmas Party. Isaac told me, "I'm so excited I can feel it in my stomach!" I was suprised that Hailey went to talk to him, I thought she would be freaked out by the whole Santa thing.

Private No More!

Maybe I was paranoid, I don't know. But there have been some family that haven't been able to get onto my blog. I know to be careful enough to what I post so I shouldn't have anything to worry about!
Enjoy!

Scary Times

Isaac has been having a hard time breathing at times and complaining of pain by his heart. That led us to an EKG test and chest x-ray. He was such a brave guy and was so still. Tests came back today negative for all they tested for which is such a relief. But, if he keeps complaining about it then he might have to wear a heart monitor for a couple of days to catch what might be bothering him.

Baby Jack

Baby Jack is movin' and groovin' inside Des's tummy. One Sunday evening, all the girls were so excited to feel him move that we had our hands on her tummy just waiting for him to kick. We had to take a picture of us all hovering over Des. We can't wait for this little guy to come out so we can love and love and love him!

In Honor Of Grandpa Sandgren

Tim's grandfather passed away Thanksgiving night. What a wonderful experience to have shared with his family. I didn't know his grandpa well, but I knew and could tell that he was a great man. The memory I will savor most is how much he loved his dear sweetheart. The funeral was incredible and the spirit was so strong. The tribute to him was unforgettable. He is dearly loved and will be greatly missed.
A cute story to go along with this: While we were at the viewing I was holding Isaac up to look into the casket. I was explaining to Isaac that grandpa was in heaven now. His reply, "Well, it doesn't look like it!" How wonderful to have children to make us smile.

A Late Thanksgiving

I love Thanksgiving. We had a great time together this year. The weather was even good enough to play a rousing game of Speed. The food was great and the pie was even better. How blessed we are to have wonderful family.
