December Happenings!

I'm behind on our December Happenings! I'll try to keep it short and sweet!

"My Mom made me wear this hat"


Finding the Todd Family Christmas Tree!
Forrest and Rita got married! It was a beautiful wedding and a FUN reception complete with a Mariachi Band! All the Todds and Holders danced the night away!

Dancing with Uncle Ike
Look closely for Joshua. He is holding Forrest up in the chair.
This was a traditional Mexican dance that was so much fun! Forrest selected three people who "hold him up in life" to hold him in the chair while all the wedding guests danced around and tried to knock him off! Not sure why we were trying to knock him off, but it was FUN!
Joshua was SORE the next day!
We dress up pretty well!

All dressed up...and a ball at our feet! Thanks Parker!

The Todds and the Holders! Meanwhile, while Mommy and Daddy are dancing the night away...
Parker had some good Mamaw and Papaw time! He loves this book that Mamaw brought. It has Parker's picture as all the characters! He thinks it is sooooo funny!Update on Daddy(aka Papaw): He is in great spirits. The hormone treatments have begun and we will wait to see how his body reacts. He lacks energy at times and gets weak if he over does it, but is in no pain. We have heard lots of positive things about the hormone therapy. While it will not cure the cancer, it does slow the growth down. We are also looking into some clinical trials to target the cancer that has metastasized in the bones. We continue to focus on the "happy times" and making memories. Joshua, Parker, and I will be headed to Rabun soon to do just that!
