Christmas Day

Scenes from Christmas morning. Our annual tradition is to have our parents over for breakfast. Matthew makes delicious croissant sandwiches with eggs and ham and cheese topped with hollandaise sauce. The kids had a lot of fun with their presents!

Baby Carson

Here he is! Carson Paul Atteberry was born on Christmas Eve! He weighed 8 lbs. 1 oz, and is 21 inches long! (By the way, I correctly guessed his weight when we did "baby bets", but I got the date wrong.) We went to see them Christmas day. You can see his picture and leave them a comment on the hospital's baby album page.

Christy's Condo

Christy is now moved into her new condo. Here are pictures of the living room and dining room.

What a mess!

Well, the destruction continues! Half the living room sheet rock and insulation needs to be replaced. The inside of the walls was completely soaked. So much for Christmas decorations! Oh well, they're going to have a nice new living room soon! (Hopefully soon...)

Singing Christmas Tree

We went to Saturday night's performance after Meadow's party. It was very good! Meadow and Logan really enjoyed it, especially the kids choir, and sang along! They were cute!

Birthday girls

Meadow shares her birthday with her Auntie Christy, who is here visiting for a few days. We went to Ocean View for dinner where the birthday girls got to wear sombreros and be sung to by the waiters. Then they blew out their candles in their free sopapias. Meadow loved wearing the hat! These lovely photos were taken by Becky English who thankfully always has her camera handy! The other one is at the Singing Christmas tree. Meadow loves spending time with her auntie Christy!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEADOW!

Destruction!

My parents arrived home from Seattle Thursday night to a very WET house!

The wind blew off a section of the metal roof! This first picture shows how it flipped over to the other side! (The white is the underside of the metal.)
Matthew went over to help. First they flipped the metal back over, then covered it with a huge tarp. They worked on it till almost 2AM!
This shows the damage to the inside. Water ran down the walls, completely soaked the floor, and even ran through to the rooms below! They have to (I should say GET to! Thanks to State Farm!) replace the livingroom carpet, and the one in Christy's old room, plus their new Tempur Pedic mattress, which is now like a huge sponge completely soaked! What a thing to come home to! Christy is here now too.
