Oscar comes back to Calhoun

Chris, Jessica, and Oscar arrived in Calhoun the week of Thanksgiving. They stayed with us from Monday to Thursday. We enjoyed having them there and Oscar and Lilya enjoyed playing with each other...sometimes. We had a birthday party for Oscar on Tuesday to celebrate his 2nd birthday. His birthday is Dec 19th, but since we never get to have a party with him, we decided to have one while they were visiting. The birthday theme was Cars since he watches the movie 30 times a day. Lilya had no idea what that was and now we have to watch it as well and play the "Life is a Highway" song over and over. Thanks Oscar. We had Thanksgiving dinner after the party. Roger and I enjoyed our meal while Jessica gave us a lecture on the stirofoam plates we used for dinner. We took the kids to the park Wednesday morning since it was warm outside and we needed to let them run off some energy. Of course Oscar went for the swings while Lilya stayed on the slide and ran around the bushes playing hide and seek with her daddy. Roger wasn't feeling too great that morning (think it was the whiskey from the night before); but Lilya caught him trying to catch a nap on the park bench. It was sad to see them go on Thursday morning. We had a great time and already miss them.
