Our lives here in CA are moving right along! We spent our Thanksgiving and Christmas here with Joe's family this year, I obviously missed spending the holiday's with my family, but am so fortunate to have the best in-laws ever! Over the Christmas holiday Jon, Shannon and Taylor came from Germany for 2 1/2 weeks! It was so much fun spending time with them...AND we are going to be God Parents AGAIN! Jon and Shannon announced on Christmas Eve through an adorable video that they are expecting in July! It amazes me how quickly our families are growing, I remember the first time I was going to be an Aunt...this is now starting to make me feel OLD! We are anxiously waiting to see if Tay Tay will have a sister or a brother...bets in the family have already been made...I'm guessing a sister!! Joe's dad, Gordy and step-mom, Francis drove in from Texas to spend a few days with us as well. At the end of their stay our laundry room was sparkling and Francis taught me how to use my new sewing machine...it was a successful visit for sure and much needed time together!
After Christmas Joe's brother, Rob and family came to visit. Terri was able to meet her new grandson, Chase for the first time! Terri had been waiting for this moment for 10 months, and it was wonderful! Chase is so happy and such a good baby, we were happy to see him again as well!
