More Christmas Fun

There are so many things I want to share with you, but have gotten very behind. We have been focusing on spending every available moment with the kids and making memories with Abby. Abby begins the toughest phase of chemo on January 14th. Until then, she gets to have a break from chemo, so she has more energy to be a kid. Many of you are praying for Abby and our time with her. God has truly blessed us with many wonderful times with Abby and she has had so much fun doing things she was to weak to do a few months ago. I can't wait to show you some of the pictures.


We are blessed with many friends who have brought joy to our lives. One of our best friends has been so wonderful about visiting us and doing fun things with the kids. Before Christmas she decided to make Christmas shirts with our kids. I love doing craft projects with the kids, but it is difficult for me to organize them, because Abby's immune system is to weak to go in stores or other public places. Toni spent hours of her time buying the supplies needed and the shirts for us to paint. She even helped the kids do a shirt for me, that has Sami, Landis and Abby's hand and footprints on it. We had so much fun making the shirts and I love that I have something with their hand prints on it.

Toni and Samrawit. Toni you are an incredible friend.
Thank you so much for everything you are doing for our family.

Landis is always expressive.

He mostly had fun, but had a few moments
were he thought our project was a a little nutty.

It never takes him long to decide to have fun.

Abby and Sami love to do everything together.

Sami was a great sport. She did everything we asked
her to with a smile on her face. I love that she is so
willing to try new things.

Princess Abby was our drama queen for the evening.
She loved making the shirts, She couldn't resist the
urge to get some attention. It was so much fun to watch her ham it up.

Abby you are a sweetheart.

There is the smile I love.

"I'm kicking cancers butt... do I have to kick yours too?"

Thanks Tracey for the great caption.

I love those cute little brown toes.

Landis wearing the final product.
I think this is the first picture ever of him being quiet.
