It's about time for an update . . .

Our first stop was Medford due to the bad weather in Portland. We were able to spend six days with Lucas's sisters, mom, aunt Robin and Grandma Marcele. It was so relaxing and fun! We were able to celebrate Tara's 28th birthday, her last one before the baby comes!

Due to the bad weather I wasn't able to make it to Portland for Christmas, luckily I was with Lucas's family and we had an amazing Christmas put on by Mandy. Tara and Carl were such great hosts to Lucas and I too. It was so fun to get to spend time with everyone! We are very grateful to have so many wonderful people in our lives!
