I've been lucky to get in two updates a year, but here goes another brief synopsis of the last six months.
I ended up taking an impromptu and quick trip to Magic Mountain in October with the Robinson's. It was super fun and a much needed getaway.
 |
| Yes, I did! |
 |
| No, I didn't! |
 |
| We ended up running into some families from the ward and I got to spend time with this sweetie. |
 |
| Some of us got a little wet... |
 |
| Super fun day. |
 |
| Happy 11th anniversary to this adorable couple! |
 |
| Happy Halloween! |
 |
| Date night must have gone amiss... |
 |
| Cap'n Crunch forever! |
 |
| Awwwwww! |
 |
| We babysat Zombie over Thanksgiving and he made himself comfortable! |
 |
| Which one is real? |
 |
| Beautiful Thanksgiving weekend with Ashley, Jason, Cori, and Jordan! |
 |
| Frisbee is a tradition... |
 |
| ...and so are games... |
 |
| ...and so is pie!! |
 |
| The madness of getting the Christmas tree lights to work... |
 |
| ...is so worth it!! |
 |
| Merry Christmas! It started with a Christmas Eve Eve dinner... |
 |
| ...then we took a drive up to Prescott to see Ashley and Jason on Christmas Eve... |
 |
| ...and then Christmas breakfast at home... |
 |
...followed by Mary Poppins Returns.
We even managed to get in a round of mini golf. It was a really fun week and as you can see, Grandma Klundt joined us this year which made it even more fun! |
 |
| In January, Ashley had her baby shower. It was so fun to celebrate with her! Aunt Julie flew down for the occasion and it was really fun to spend the weekend with her! |
 |
| We even got a visit from some of Scott and Julie's childhood friends from Walla Walla! |
 |
| Uncle Bob and Aunt Susan spent some time in AZ this winter and we were able to get together with them for lunch. It was so good to see them and catch up! |
 |
| We have gotten to babysit Pippin a couple of times and it's always fun to have him here! He usually takes a day or so to warm up unless Agnes comes over first, she is our cat whisperer. |
 |
| I ended up being sick one of the times he was here and so we had some bonding time. |
 |
| Of course, he can sleep anywhere. |
So, our most exciting news is the birth of our first granddaughter, Emma Lorraine, on February 13. She is so beautiful and such a sweet baby!! We have been able to go up to Prescott a couple of times and can't wait to go back. We love her so much and are so happy for Ashley and Jason. They are such good parents and are doing so well.
 |
| A bundle of joy! |
 |
| Proud Grandpa! |
 |
| She loves to sleep while being held and I was only too happy to oblige! |
 |
| Ella was needing some loves too! |
 |
| I got my snow fix in Prescott this year! |
 |
| Great Grandma came down again so she could meet Emma. |
 |
| Hanging out with Grandpa. |
 |
| It was love at first sight! |
 |
| So sweet! |
 |
| Showing Emma her new clothes. |
 |
| Awake and happy!! |
 |
| We love you, Emma!! |
The months just fly by but we are happy and healthy and grateful. We are looking forward to a trip to Utah the end of April and hopefully some other fun trips this summer so stay tuned!
