Emily and Chris

This weekend was Grandma’s 85th birthday.  Family came from Wyoming, Lewiston, California and of course all over town.  It was so nice to see everyone.  I feel like I don’t even see the people who live in town enough!  Brynn and Noah are SO grown-up and adorable!  Friday was pizza at Grandma’s with the family.  23 of us plus dogs in Grandma’s nice warm house   Saturday Lori and Guy had a BBQ out at there house, the weather was awful but the food and the party were great!  We did a really fun thing for Grandma.  I made a poster of 85 reason why we love her.  We emailed the whole family, but of course, I waited until the last minute (didn’t think of it actually) so a lot of family was traveling already.  We came up with most of reasons ourselves, but tried to make ones that applied to everyone.  It was really nice.  Chris read it out-loud at the party and everyone was all teared up and laughing.  I think Grandma really liked it.

Here is a link to the PDF if you are interested in looking at it.

85 Reasons Why We Love Grandma

I hope that everyone had a very Merry Christmas.  We had a very nice Christmas with dinners, breakfasts and presents with both families.  It was nice to spend time with everyone.  We received many (MANY) very nice presents that we are very thankful for.  Of course, the blizzard kinda put a cramp in things…  We have gotten right around 18 inches of snow in two days!  It has been like living in a snow globe!  Tilly hates it!  She gets lost in the snow!  I hope had a fabulous holiday and that everyone is safe!

On an unrelated note, most of my grades are posted… 1 A, 1 B, and 3 B+’s! I’m still waiting on one grade and to be able to register for classes next semester.
