Tonight's picture was taken in December of 2006. Mattie was four and half years old and Peter got both of them matching Santa hats. I thought this was priceless and I am so happy I snapped this photo of the boys in front of our tree. Together we collected many sentimental ornaments over the years and now that we are decorating again, it brings back memories to see these special baubles. Ironically I still have this SAME star on our tree and the funny part about this is I bought this star in Neiman Marcus. This is a store I NEVER shop at, I only like their café. But back then I wanted to find a replacement star and when I saw this, I immediately bought it. If I were to buy it today in Neiman Marcus, I am quite certain it would be hundreds of dollars, and I wouldn't be purchasing it.

Meanwhile, my dad went to his memory care center today and my hope was I could get some things accomplished. An hour after he got there, I received a call telling me the center was closing early because of the weather. So Peter went right back to pick him up.
Peter also took Sunny to the vet today for his follow up bloodwork! The good news is Sunny is holding steady with weight and his blood work results look good. So we continue on this chemo in hopes that when he gets scanned in a few weeks, we find that the meds are holding back the cancer.
Tonight Dawn was participating in the restaurant's ugly sweater contest. She actually won the contest, but frankly I loved this sweater. It wasn't ugly to me. I particularly loved how Dawn jingled when she walked.
