Sawyer having fun with his guy at the clinic

This is my first time to try a video. So we'll see

how it goes. Wish I would have remembered earlier

that my camera has a video feature. Sawyer was

really being funny. This only captures a little bit.

This was right before the doctor arrived.

Sawyer was so excited to have Terry at the clinic. This was Terry's first time at the new facility. Of course, the train table was the very first place the boys visited.

Watching some cartoons in the lobby.

Work never stops for Terry--Sawyer's in the back-ground having fun playing with his guy.

Hunter had a really fun preschool Christmas party on Friday! Here Hunter is singing with his class--actually Hunter was doing most of the singing. He's the only one we could really hear. Too bad he wouldn't go up at church yesterday when the children sang during the Christmas program. He said he was too scared. I had to play the organ and piano for the program. Terry even accompanied one musical number-he played his guitar.

Sawyer enjoyed Hunter's preschool party as well. He really thinks he's one of the students.

Here is Sawyer eating his decorated tree! Too much sugar for me!

Sawyer was so excited about the extra stickers he received for being such a good boy!

Chemo #30 -- December 8, 2008

Sawyer LOVES the train table at the clinic.

Such a big boy!

Snack time!

Sawyer just finished saying, "That's my tube-ee!"

Thank heaven for TVs. Sure makes chemo time much easier.

We're stuffed with gratitude for our many blessings!

This is the picture we used for our Christmas cards this year. Even though the road has been bumpy this year, the Lord has truly blessed us.

Sawyer looks so full. Do you think he'll be able to finish his Thanksgiving dessert?--Mount Vernon.
