Thanksgiving was quite this year. We had a great meal and watched a lot of football. The day after Thanksgiving I went shopping! I got up at 2:30am and stood outside Bestbuy from about 3 am til 5 am. It was only 13 degrees. I was so cold. I got a lot of great gifts while shopping. I made it to 5 stores in one hour and got everything on my list! I was so proud of myself. I got my shopping for 5 people done that day. I know several of you think I am crazy for going shopping that early but I saved about $285!!!! I love black Friday!! I can't wait for Christmas and for people to see the gifts I got for them. I know they will love them.

Game Day

As you can see I put my game face on! We are getting ready for a KU basketball game. Marty is now a registered Jr. JayHawker! Go KU!

School Grades

Marty is now in the 4th grade. This year is the first year he gets letter grades. We are proud to tell you Marty got A's and B's on his report card! He is doing great this year in school.

Our Dog

Here is the newest addition to our family, Triumph. He was adopted from the humane society. He is a mix of Great Pyrennes, Shar Pei, and Sheppard. He is a good dog. Enjoy.

Growth update

As some of you know, Marty is on a growth hormone to help him grow. He has been taking daily shots from Mom and Dad since May 15, 2007. He is very brave. As of today, he is now 4 foot 1 inch and 55 lbs. He only has about 10 inches and he will be taller than Mom. He is pretty excited about that.

Halloween 2007 and New Blog

Halloween was a blast this year. Marty got to go trick-or-treating for 3 hours, he has so much candy. He eats a piece or two everyday, it's almost gone (mom bagged half of it up). Marty went to his first haunted house. It was a little scary. He made it half way through! He did great, he didn't cry. We also made it to Worlds Of Fun this year. After 7pm that night the whole place became haunted, it was so much fun. The clowns got pretty scary for Marty. He was a trooper that night. We were there from 4pm unitl midnight it was so much fun. It was real busy.

We will continue to blog here periodically to keep all updated on the Carr Family. Please visit often. If you decide to make your own blogger please email me the address so we can stay in touch. I hope this finds you all doing well.
