Benefit Dinner


Chemo # 2

Bob's chemo, scheduled for 10/21/2009 did not get done because when he arrived his blood count was too low. They gave him a shot and on Friday he was able to get chemo. He did well with it. He is however, loosing his hair!

Thankfully his spirits are good, he's simply weak and in a lot of pain. Please keep him in your prayers.

Proud Grandma

We welcomed Caiden Larz Croom into the world on October 28, 2009 at 9:11 a.m. He weighed 6 lbs 15.6 oz and was 20 inches long.
I was thrilled and honored to be in the delivery room with my daughter while she went through her labor (long ... started at 3 p.m. 10/27/2009) and delivery. She was amazing during the entire thing! He's a little peanut and of course it was love at first sight! Mother and son are home now and resting!














Proud Mom!

Our son, Gaven, received an award from the Chief - of - Police on Monday 10/26/2009 for his assistance in solving a burglary. We are very proud of him!

Caiden's Baby Blanket



Caiden Larz Croom is expected on October 31st. We aren't sure that Cassy and Caiden will wait that long for him to make his appearance.




I've been working on a baby blanket for him - but it's taken me a while....I've been just a little bit busy. This weekend I did manage to finish his blanket (shown below) and make apple turnovers from scratch with no recipe...and amazingly they turned out so well that I think I will bring them for the dessert for our Potluck at work.




Okay, here is his blanket.

Round 1

Bob had his first round of chemo on Wednesday October 7.

He's been sick to his stomach ever since, as well as having the chills and muscle tremors. No vommitting! - although they did tell us he probably wouldn't the first round but by the second round he most likely would.

He's doing well though - making jokes and such but the poor guy is miserable and certainly bored being stuck at home or at the doctors all the time.

In other news Cassy will be 37 weeks pregnant on Saturday! HOLY MOLY! Caiden will be here to play soon!

Ok....ready, set, GO!
