Earlier in the week Matthew was having a lot of pain in his abdomen.   Screaming pain!  Took him...not his appendix...just a bad virus.  But no throwing up.  It's been a strange week.  He seems to be better now and just seems to milk the tummy ache now.  We'll see how the weekend goes.

Alex caught the same thing on Wednesday but he's fine now...maybe a little clingy still but otherwise fine.  Thankfully!

Roy got home Friday night after being gone for 2 weeks!  Yeah!!!!   It was so wonderful to have him home!

Today Roy has taken all 4 of the kiddos out shopping....to buy gifts for me!  :)   And I am going beading with a friend.  :)

Tomorrow is our Christmas program at church and Samantha and Matthew are in it. Then we have potluck with the church family.

Oh forgot to mention.  Kayla went to the church's teen Christmas party on Thursday night at the pastors house.  They prepared stuff for the program on Sunday and then played games.  She said it was fun!  :)
