so the two don't really go hand in hand but this is to update everyone on two things... Okay... Go!
So Mom is ALIVE! Yeah! good news right? The good Lord didn't want her just yet so she's stuck with us. She had a rough three weeks in the hospital though and she is safe and sound in her home. She has a long, tough recovery ahead though. She has nurses come out twice a day and she is still hooked up to a few gadgets and gizmos so she's not out of the Matrix yet. Her second surgery is in a few weeks so keep praying for her. Thank you to all those who reached out to our family in our time of need. Words cant express how thankful we are for all of you.
Christmas Party!!! This year we hosted our second annual Christmas sweater party and it was a huge hit. Word got around about last years party and everyone and their dog showed up. We tuned into our inner Martha Stewarts and decorated the place up and we were able to hand out over $140 in gift cards as prizes to the best sweaters! (Thanks to Marty) Around midnight we got busted by the cops and being the responsible one that I am I talked to them and convinced them not to ticket us... or throw anyone in the house in jail... because that would just be awful to experience that ... again. It's not a party unless you get busted right?! Here are some pics.
The boys in front of our house.

I couldn't move.
Things got a little crazy.
