Finally...We have a house!!

So, finally after 5 months of escrow and dealing with the craziness of the banks, we have our house. Hooray!! It is officially ours. We got the keys Saturday and Josh and I couldn't be more excited. Now comes the long list of things to do like have the water and power turned on, a DEEP cleaning, paint, carpet, and all the fixings. We'll be pretty busy in the next 2 weeks before we have to be out of our apartment but it will definitely be well worth it.

Christmas

Christmas this year was great! Josh had to work Christmas Eve so I stayed at my parents house and he came straight there once he got off shift early Christmas morning. Bear and Breanna drove down Christmas Eve too. We were all together opening presents and my dad made his awesome breakfast potatoes and breakfast burritos. Later everyone came to my parents for a delicious meal of prime rib and all the fixings. Matt and Angela came over to and baby Katelynne was the center of attention. Everyone could not get enough of her.

Our group shot, I thought it turned out pretty well for using the self timer. Christmas card picture for next year?

My mom picked out this adorable hat and coat for Katelynne.

Looks like she has a little while to grow into it.

It was a great Christmas this year, however we always do miss being with Josh' s family. But this year we were kind of able to. We got them a web cam and Jeremy hooked it up so we were able to see everyone and chat. I even got to see everybody when they were at Josh's grandma's. Technology these days is amazing and makes it so much easier to stay in touch. Merry Christmas!!
