Sorry So Long Since I Have Posted

I am sorry it's been so long since I have posted. It's been quite busy. The older two kiddos recently got to attend a field trip with our homeschool group. They went "back in time" to a one room school house. Sorry no digital pix. They dressed for 1892 and the entire day was really like the good ol' days. They even had to bring authentic lunches, hard boiled eggs, biscuits with jam, peanuts, an apple and other goodies. Jakob said he would go to public school if it was always 1892. Katherine and I enjoyed tea at a local shop on the town square. She even got her own tea pot for her diet coke. Of course she spilled it. lol

     In Nov. the kids and I visited a local boutique for their Christmas open house. We were surprised to find Mr. and Mrs. Claus  were there as well. It took quite some coaxing to get Kat to even go near the old man. She did warm up to Mrs. C tho. She had the basket of candy. 

     The biggest news of all was Jakob's surgery on both legs on Nov. 21st. He had an osteotomy on his left tibia and fibula and his achilles tendon lengthened. On his right foot he had scar tissue removed and had it realigned. He chose black and red casts for Texas Tech much to the joy of his Aunt Kimbo and Cuz Tracie. I am sure Stacey Groves will get a tickle over that too. GUNS UP! He is recovering well, but still having digestive problems while his body gets back on track. Overall he is finally back to his old self.

Blessing to all and will try and stay more on top of posts.
