Raising Cain: December 2008

Our first tree

It was lots of fun decorating our first tree together. Even Diesel decided to help =)

On Thanksgiving, I had to work at the hospital. Everyone brought in a dish to share so we still had a nice feast. Seth woke up early that morning and went downtown with some of the kids from the church and served a wonderful thanksgiving meal to some families in need. Jerry and Cindy had Seth over later that day for a nice thanksgiving meal. I was able to grab a quick bite to eat there when I got off work and then I came home to have Chris, Jen and Cole arriving at our house, yaay! It was so great to see them. We took them downtown and it was fun. Then we went to the Christmas tree farm with them to pick out and cut down our very first Christmas tree. =)

Halloween

One of the doctors at work hosted a Halloween party at his house downtown Charleston. What a sweet house. It was a lot of fun. The theme was something along the line of...Madams and Monks, Tarts and Vicars, Darlings and Deacons...etc. Seth was Friar Tuck and well I was a Pirate. P.S. Supergirl is Rose, my amazing preceptor I always talk about, love her.

Sarah's visit

I know sweet shades and hats!! =)

We went to the Rodeo in Monks Corner, it was a muddy night, but so fun! Steering and bull riding is way more exciting in the mud.

Julia and Stephen's Wedding

Joce, this one's for you. I promised I would post these for you like 5 months ago...better late than never I suppose. It was a beautiful day!!!

Seth's Motorcycle

So the running joke is that I am wearing Seth's last motorcycle on my finger. Its a beautiful one. =) Well now he has a new project, Seth got a 1979 Honda Motorcycle. Its been a lot of fun for him to fix up. He's feeling like a man again he says. He is so talented, he literally rebuilt the engine with another guy from our church. He would come home smelling like oil and working in a garage and would refuse to shower because "I smell like a man" he would say. ha ha Anyway, we finally took it for its first ride...yaay! Except it gets a little colder up here now, so we only made it about 25 miles, but it was still fun. We are looking forward to some warmer rides in the spring.

STEVE 'S VISIT

Seth's good friend from from Melbourne came to visit us in Charleston. While he was here, we took him downtown Charleston and we also took a boat to Fort Sumter. Steve also brought Seth a special surprise (see next post).
