The Place Where Miracles Happen

This link is to an article from US News and World Report documenting the best hospitals in America (TCH ranked 6th in the US for the type of procedure James underwent). This article features Dr. Fraser who performed James' surgery and is pictured below with an older female patient. This photograph brought back tearful memories as it is exactly how Baby James looked for 2 days following his surgery. We head back to the hospital on Tuesday for our first post-op visit. They will do a sedated echocardiogram to check the progress. We are hoping and praying for good news. We are optimistic because the lil rascal is crawling around like a madman and playing with everything in sight!

Football, friends, and family

Where are all those Longhorn fans going?


Friday night at Pete's Piano Bar. Note: this is not Molly's hand!!



Before the monsoon left us absolutely dripping!

Koffee and Baby J had a blast watching the game on TV.

Texan football. Yes - we're obsessed with the game.

James heard it was his Birthday last Friday. Yes, football dictates our schedule and we're celebrating a week late.

Koffee, Humberto & Football

Grandma "Nana" Koffee has spent the last week with Baby J. We went to sleep last Wednesday and woke up with Hurricane Humberto. Humberto was kind enough to leave us with lakefront property for a day. Troop loved it. This is the view from our front yard.



James in his magic ball palace that arrived as an early Birthday gift.


This is James smiling like his mommy when she's had too many drinks.






And the weekend ended with James and CD cheering the Texans to victory! James says Thank YOU Nana for the new Texans gear. But next time bring a bigger KState tshirt!

Gunnar's Hill Country Wedding

Dad showing off his Sixth Street find!





Kristen playing with the minature donkeys!

Some days are more smiley than others...

Unfortunately.... James was not hamming it up for his latest spin in the studio. He is lookly whiney and/or bewildered. Let's hope it's just a phase.

Labor Day Weekend fun

Trooper makes honorable mention this week because he apparently pulled a groin muscle trying to escape from the wrath of Baby J.

James got jealous of his mom and dad watching football all day Saturday so he reclined in his own speical way.
