The past few weeks...

So many exciting things have happened in the last few weeks. Please enjoy the many updates and pictures!!

We moved into our first home together… Here Are A Few Shout Outs!

Thank you Lindsey, Kristian & Mom for helping on Friday, the initial cleaning and slight moving in of things. Adriane thank you for the late night food and appearance! Mom and Kristian made a double appearance on Saturday and Jessica joined us with her helping hands and awesome chili making (everyone loved it)! Not to mention the big man help! Thank you Steve for the all around town muscles that you put into play! We could not have done the big lifting without you... Thanks again Kell for allowing us to have him all day! Chris and David thank you for stopping in with your generous gifts.... The Costco membership sure has come in handy!!!!









Christmas Dinner

We had Christmas at our house this year! Yes…we had Christmas and moved in our new home in the same week! Crazy! All we ultimately want for Christmas is for Grandma to feel good and continue to become more healthy!

I love this picture... My soon to be mother in law ( she has already made me feel part of the family for years) along with my mom...cooking it up in the kitchen!! Everything went fabulous...don't ask any questions! :)


My main man slicing up his first turkey...I am glad you were able to see the smiling face! Because I heard the..."what the..., how do I cut this*******thing! He called his dad to the rescue... :)
Mom and I proud of our Turkey! Darn! ( I thought I was going to do it all alone) I couldn't do it without her, she was there from the beginning til the end, thanks mom...I love you!

She is so Pretty!

Just wanted to show off my beautiful niece...some more!! Eyes are open in all of these ones!

This one makes me laugh!! She really looks like she is looking right back at you!

That is a big smile!

On a side note...The girls flew in and Jacob arrived shortly and safely after!

Destination Portland

Jacob, Rachel and Isreal are on their way to Portland! It was a bitter sweet goodbye. Yes, they just had my moms first grand baby and yes it was my first niece, Adriane's too! But they have a desire, a connection, and a purpose in Portland! So please send them your thoughts and prayers as they travel to a new place and begin a new chapter in their lives. We love you!

Isn't she beautiful! Thanksgiving!
