Christmas Parade

Well the Christmas parade here in town was really the first Saturday in December, but I forgot to share some pictures. The little ones enjoyed the parade, but I think the big kids were getting bored quickly. I personally did not think the parade was as good this year as all the previous years we have gone. There were several school bands that were not there this year, Jacobs work wasn't in it this year with the big cement truck, and the floats this year were nothing grand. But it was something we do every year, so it was fun still. It was cold out this year too, but not nearly as cold as last year, so it was managable.
Here are some photos from the parade.
The boys. This was the best one I got out of a few.
Here are the babies getting excited and all bundled up.

Mini trucks. The kids love these the best. They drive all around and wind in between each other. The are fun to watch.
Well Jacob is at the hospital right now visiting his uncle. They took him off the medicine that put him in the coma, and they took him off the respirator as well. He woke up and is breathing on his own. He was asking to see everyone, so that is great. God was with him that is for sure.
Our little Caleb woke up this morning at 5am throwing up. :( He threw up a few times too. Then we went to sleep and when he woke back up he seemed fine. He ate and had some gatorade and was riding his bike. He was enjoying some Mickey Mouse on tv too. Then he was laying on the bed and started to cry and then threw up again. Twice this time. So I put him in a warm bath and after that he layed down and took a good nap. When he woke up he was complaining that his tummy hurt again. He drank some water and layed down again. He was starting to feel warm too. Then a little bit ago he climbed up on the couch here with me and fell asleep. I really hope our poor little guy isn't getting sick.
On a happy note though, I got every Christmas present wrapped today. I am not done shopping yet, but at least I tackled that much. Feels so good to have it done.

Now to just figure out what is for dinner and we will be doing good.
