Alabama Christmas






































We had so much fun being with Brian,Becky and the boys. The boys and I made cookies, made Christmas hand print ornaments, and played.


Ahh the annual Christmas PJ's and we sprinkled reindeer dust outside so the reindeer's could find the house.


Lucas was the first one up Christmas morning and just stared at what Santa brought... it was checking out the toys Santa brought and stocking, before getting ready for church.



I had biscuits n gravy and cinnamon rolls, fresh out of the oven when they came in...finally it was time to open Christmas presents...Big B read the Christmas Story.

Brian & Wes put together some toys, while we played. Becky made a lovely ham dinner.
We sang Happy Birthday to Jesus and had Red Velvet Cake...

Play, play, play, all the next day and we had friends come for a Taco lunch...
It was a good time had by all...

Trip to California






We flew to Calif to visit family and friends for 2 weeks..It was a busy and exciting time. Went to Christmas on Euclid and Harvest Festival, meet up with friends and family, even went to see all the co workers this time around. Wes and I drove up to Sonora, in northern Calif, to visit with Dan & Eileen. Went to Lara dr appt and got to see and hear the baby heart. We are home a week then its driving to Alabama, cause Christmas this year is at Brian & Becky.

We're going to be 2x Grandparents

Wes and I went to Calif for 2 weeks..the Grandmas were able to go in with Lara & Jim for first ultersound and hear and see the baby. There were 2 sacs so we have to wait til after Christmas to see if we have baby # 2 or not...It was just,,, AWESOME!





Lara & Jim have been trying to have a baby for awhile and decided to do invetro..With alot of prayers and after alot of procedures, on Oct.31 Dr. Sher implanted 2 eggs, the wait begins,,, we wait and wait..seems forever but I still have faith God will bless them.
On Veterans Day there is a flower delivery for me...I said to the lady, who would send me flowers? (Dud) and I think to myself what strange colors for this time of year, its pink and blue..(Double Dud!) The lady says they are from my daughter and there is a card could she read it to me. Baby(s) Costello will arrive
(I say -July 24th) or so.
Oh my God by then Im crying... Thank you Lord.





We were told at end of October that Brian & Becky will have baby#4 around April 27th...and in Nov. we got word, its going to be a GIRL! We are excited..
