It's been awhile!

Dear Family & Friends,
It's been awhile since our last update! We've been busy enjoying time with love ones.
I have five months to cover, so I better get started!
In November my sweet and energetic friend Niloofar came for a visit. I was so glad have her company & her encouragement to exercise and get some baby weight off. I only wish that she could have stayed longer!

Shorty after that, we were able to see The David Crowder Band in their final tour and were joined by family and friends as we gathered for Thanksgiving.
Our tickets. What a fun and worship filled night!
My mom cooked amazingly tasty food as always!

Wes in his Thanksgiving bib! We are SO thankful for him :)

Fun at a park after getting stuffed. Thanks Mom for capturing this fun time!



After that it was two trips to Florida in one month!
The first was for my dear friend Natalie baby shower (Sweet Hannah Elizabeth Moss was born on Feb. 10th, 9.7 pounds!) and a baby dedication for Wesley at my dad's church.

We also had an early celebration for Will, who turned 23 last year on December 12th.
A little surprise after blowing out the candles.

After about two weeks back in Virginia for Will to take his final exams, we went back to Florida to spend Christmas with some of our family.
We built a gingerbread house. Left to Right: Whitney, Rachel, Stephanie and Kristen.

Mimi!
Grandpa Gary feeding Wes.
Grandma Terri.
Aunt Lindsey! She delivered Wesley's adorable cousin Kaitlyn on March 7th.
 While in Florida we also celebrated my dad's birthday at a park, had a family photo taken by my sweet friend and her hubby who run Jessica Gunn Photography and of course celebrated JESUS' Birthday!!
A few days after we got back to Virgina, we welcomed Will's sister Michelle and our nephew Sam for a weekend. It was the first time we had seen him since he was 9 months old.

Wes and his Aunt Michelle!
After that we were off to PA to celebrate Christmas with my mom.

Hi Gram!

And that brings us to the new year which I will write about in another blog! :0)

Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. -2 Thess 5:16-18
God Bless,
