Happy Freaking Thanksgiving

So last Thanksgiving was Kendra's birthday and she looked like this...




She was admitted to the hospital the next day.

So I thought "This year we are going to have a BIG dinner at our new house"... and this is how Jasper looked for Thanksgiving...



I took Kendra to the doctor for an ear ache and left with a diagnosis of RSV for Jasper... Great

Jasper looks like he is six months old but he is only 10 weeks, yes he is a TANK to say the least!

TWERD (Twilight +Nerd)

Of course I was at the midnight showing of Twilight (Vesta, Allison, and Kelly). I was dressed appropriately, sporting "Team Jasper." Donny has a new hobby... silk screening shirts. It was suppose to be a little hobby he has always wanted to do but once people have heard you can make shirts, well, then you get pretty busy :).

Halloween 2008

SOLD SOLD SOLD

The week of Ike we sold our house in Port Neches, boarded up the house and fled to La La's to face the EYE of the storm. The house survived...we finalized the sell in Port Neches...bought a house in Vidor... had a tree limb fall through the roof of that house the day before we moved in... hmmm... lived in the kitchen (yes the kitchen) for 3 weeks while Donny made our new "whole" in the ground livable.

(This is the Port Neches house. I am too embarassed to put the Vidor house on here yet because we are currently true Vidorians... we have a washer and dryer on our front porch.)

We lived at La La's house for 2 1/2 weeks and LOVED IT!!! It was like staying at the Ritz Carlton... with free 24 hr babysitting service... TV all night, Kendra had a bubble bath everynight, room service, professional photography services... eat your hearts out. This was Lauries favorite picture of "Mr. Man" and what I sent out for his announcements (if you didn't get one... I've been stressed :) keep reading).

Long Timeline

Yes, La La is sitting here making me update our life.

We survived Hurricane Ike and got a suprise baby, JASPER! He was born September 15th in Sugarland, Texas (aka La La's House). Weighing in at 8# 4oz and length 20" (a BIG baby for me, I can't imagine if he came two weeks later on his due date of the 23rd.
