A grumpy and sick little boy!

Wow!   I think I’ve had enough of this sickness thing.  My little guy has been ill since we’ve been out of school.  I took him to the doctor on Christmas Eve and back again yesterday.  It hasn’t seemed to help. 

He is congested and has swollen tonsils.  I don’t know what I’m going to do if this doesn’t let up.  Please hurry back Dr. Rao.  I don’t think I can take any more of this crying and grumping. 

Also, never let Joel tell you to tell your kids not to pick their nose or the booger monster will bite their fingers.  I think I’ve heard…..”Mom, I don’t want the booger monster to bite me a hundred times lately.”  Poor kid!  I keep telling him there is no booger monster.  It hasn’t helped!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, well!  Remember us in your prayers. 

A Nice Visit!

 

 

I sure enjoyed our visit in DeRidder this weekend.  We stayed with my brother and got to enjoy some of his homemade gumbo.  

Joel, Keith, Zach, and Skye all went riding to see animals.  They went through the field at my mom’s old place and ended up getting stuck.  Zach was not impressed.  He wanted his mom.  (In fact, he made a card today to Uncle Keith about getting stuck.)  He and Skye even got to swing on MawMaw Hoffpauir’s old swing.   

I had a great time, but I would have liked to see a few other family members.  Maybe next time!  Terry, Becky, and families, we’d sure like to see you guys. 

Merry Christmas to All!

Our Junior’s Party!

Zach had his first junior Christmas party the other night.  He is growing up so quickly. 

Ashlan, Zach’s cousin, is growing up so quickly as well.  She attended her last junior’s class last Sunday night.  We’ll miss her. 

We  had a huge group of kids Sunday night.  We had 33 in attendance with several of our own not there.  WOW!  We were a little concerned that we wouldn’t have enough food.  But we ended up with extra.

Merry Christmas from our family!

Christmas at School!

Thanks everyone for the nice gifts you gave this teacher yesterday.  I sure appreciate your thoughtfulness!  The gift card, socks, candy, ornaments, snowman plaque, soap, and candles are appreciated.  Thanks SO MUCH and Merry Christmas to you all.
