Christmas Morning 2006

We had another wonderful Christmas morning.  Here’s a recap in pictures:

Kids wait “patiently” at the top of the stairs before seeing what Santa brought: 

Diving into the presents
 

Christmas breakfast and the reading of the Christmas story:
 

Kirby Ann has a breathing treatment.  We are so thankful that she is with us and not at the hospital
 

Christmas Eve Skating

 

Our annual tradition of ice skating on Christmas Eve wasn’t quite the same since Kirby Ann & Valerie were at the hospital.  Kendall, Trent & Reed got to go anyway and were joined by Jessie.  I dropped them off before I went to get Valerie & Kirby Ann at the hospital so I made the [...]

Christmas Eve in the Korház (Hospital)

It wasn’t in the plan, but Valerie, Kirby Ann & I spent Christmas Eve morning in the hospital.  We decided that we haven’t had enough medical challenges yet, so we were ready for an adventure.  Ha!

It wasn’t in the plan, but Valerie, Kirby Ann & I spent Christmas Eve morning in the hospital.  We decided [...]

Christmas Concert

 Last night, Kendall & Trent performed in the ICSB Christmas Concert.  It was Trent’s first time to perform on his clarinet.  They both did a great job!!!  We are so proud of them.

 

Top 10 Aggie Basketball – Am I dreaming?

Valerie & I watched the #6 ranked Aggies play the #1 UCLA Bruins yesterday.  First of all, I can believe that the Aggies are ranked so high.  Two years ago we went 0-16 in the Big XII so it is hard to believe we have come so far.  We already lost to #9 LSU this [...]

Saturday morning, I rode the train back to Austria and drove Valerie & Reed home.  They were very ready to get back home as the walls of the hotel were closing in on them.  The good part is that they stayed right on the main square and there was a Christmas market going on with [...]

Reed’s Out! I’m home

Yesterday morning, Reed was released from the hospital.  It was very different than our experiences with hospital discharge in the US.  Our experience in the US has been that it takes forever to get out of the hospital.  In Austria, as soon as the doctor made the decision at around 7:30am, they started circling like [...]

Update on Day 1 of Surgery

Reed’s surgery went very well today.  The actual surgery took about 20 minutes and the doctor said that they looked very bad and definately needed to come out. 

Since then, he hasn’t been feeling too well.  He has been in some pain and has had a lot of nausea and vomiting.  Needless to say, the [...]

Seely’s Medical Saga Continues

Sometime in the past year two of the three Seely guys have been in the hospital.   I had back surgery last year on Dec 6th.  Trent had many tests run over the summer for his stomach.  

I guess Reed was feeling left out.   Therefore, we leave tomorrow for Austria for Reed to have his tonsils removed on [...]
