New Years Eve!
Thanksgiving with my mom and family
We went to my Mom's for Thanksgiving this year.
Wednesday night we arrived at 5:45pm and then I turned around and we to meet up with my GirlFriends! We went to dinner and caught up with each other's lives.
Thursday was Thanksgiving. We had dinner at Jeanette's house.
Friday morning we slept in and then went shopping. We found just what we needed without having to get up early this year. We had lunch a J's and then we made dinner at my mom's. Matt and I made our chili rellenos and I also helped my mom put together a taco bar.
We left Saturday morning so we could get back in time for Jileigh to get to her friend's (Sarah) birthday party.
I really don't travel long distances very well. By then end, most of us felt like our stomachs were turning. My #5 child was the only one to throw up on the way home.

Stitches time
This must be stitches season.
Safia was holding a glass jar when it slipped out of her hands. It shattered and a piece flew into her arm. We had to run her up to the IHC clinic and she had stitches put in it.
December 9 Beau was in the laundry room wanting a dry erase marker. He climbed up on the Laundry room counter and reached across for the marker on the opposite wall above the dry erase board. He slipped and fell hitting his mouth on the rim of the dry erase board and sliced open his mouth. He ended up with 2 internal stitches and 6 stitches on the outside surfaces of his lip. It looks pretty bad and he looks pretty sad.We were able to get' Matt's cousin Dr. Dave to do the stitches. He was careful to realign the lip line. Beau was such a good boy to hold still to get stitched up.

Update/summary on my ankle
I was in a boot for 6 weeks, then in a cast for 3 weeks. Those x-rays showed that my ankle was 3/4 healed so surgery was not needed. I didn't want my cast off yet, but the doctor insisted it was time. I still couldn't put any weight on it for 2 more weeks and I wore the boot again. Then I could finally put some weight on it again. I bought an awesome ankle brace at Walgreens. It looks like a courset for the foot and ankle with hard plastic down the sides. I still wear it and I will for a long time. I still walk with a limp, but I am trying to consciously not limp and get my whole foot use to having weight on it again. Speaking of weight, I've put about 10 pounds back on. bleh! But I am hoping in the spring and will be able to get back to excercising again.

| Talon and his web |
We are boring. We stay home, make dinner and watch a movie. Talon made this web with caution tape left over from eagle project so people wouldn't come down our driveway. Pretty clever of him if I say so myself!
