This is the group of neighbors I don't know what I would do without. Ethelyn in front of me takes care of my every need. Ria in the brown drives me every where I need to go and if she can't Alicia's, purple, daughter does. Laura in the red has come over to help me with any questions I have and to be a major support through all of this.
New Year's at Denise's house. It is the book club group that I am joining this week.

Hans and John, my mom's future husband. They are scheduled to get married the last weekend of June. It is going to be at the country club.


Ellie had to sit by auntie in Rockford.




Gifts from Auntie Kirsten. Since Kirsten had Lars, she had so many things for Brie and Elle. My Elle is her girl. She loves her Auntie.

Our Family picture. The kids just didn't want to cooperate so we just took a couple and were done.

Daddy and his girl!


We opened gifts Christmas Eve since Christmas Day we have everyone over. Santa came when we went out for dinner. This Christmas was so wonderful thanks to Grant and Big Hollow. I got a phone call from both schools and said we need you kids wish list. When Wendi came over to bring the gifts she came in with a massive box and bag, and then she goes that's not all. She had her entire vehicle loaded with gifts. They just kept coming. Then a couple day later the union leaders at Grant came by and collected money for us. They said how everyone loves us so much and they were so happy to be able to help. The union President filled the place of my father when my dad passed away. I love the people I work with and am so thankful for them. Plus even retired teachers thought of us. We received gift cards in the mail. It was unbelievable the generosity of my Grant family. They have made it so we are able to handle me not be able to work.

Who would have thought it would be harder to get a picture of Elle. Brie loves the camera!

We were not able to make it to Christmas with Grandma, so we went down to visit her that way she got to see Hans. She doesn't get to see him much because of school.
