Having daddy around means bowls of whip cream (or as Kelan calls it, "whip crip") are perfectly acceptable.

I've been wanting to get some good sunrise pictures. Riding the early ferry to Southport this morning for Craig's surgery gave me just the opportunity I'd been waiting for...

After his surgery we drove around Southport to kill time before the ferry and see the sights. It's a very cute little coastal town we plan on visiting again to see more!

On the ferry ride home we got out and let the boys explore. It was thrilling!

Jak caught during a calm, reflective moment. These are rare.

Kelan loved the ferry.

The big boat that passed us by slightly closer than I'd have liked it to.

A slightly groggy post-op Craig. And below- the results of his surgery. Ouch! We're praying for a quick and full recovery.
