Dan was out of town helping his dad haul hay and sell cattle so he wasn't there to join us. We went down stairs and he starting ripping the paper of his presents. He got a watch, a leapster reading system, a sweet little puppy he named Chance (our old dog's name was Chance), and a....

I cooked Caleb pancakes for breakfast with 5 candles in it and sang to him again!! Then we went to Chick-Fil-A to eat lunch (he got a free ice cream and a balloon). Later on that afternoon he started complaining of a sore throat and was running a slight fever so I cooked him macaroni and cheese and then afterward he had this...
