New Year....New Dog!

We have a new addition to our family. Welcome 2 year old Golden Retriever "Julia!" (We are still deciding if we are going to change her name.) Dave and I have been wanting another dog for a while, but it has never been the right timing. We are happy to welcome her into our home!


Julia and Sable (BFFs)



Sable has perked up with Julia around! It's fun to see her playful again.

Christmas Vacation Part II - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

After we were in Colorado, we flew over to Milwaukee to spend Christmas with Dave's brother Keith and his family. We were so busy visiting with Aunts and Uncles, celebrating Christmas Eve and Christmas, Baptising our new niece, and celebrating David's 3oth Birthday! What a great time!Uncle Dale, Sam, Savannah, and Dan relaxing by the pool.

Brothers and cousins chicken fighting!

Bathing beauties!

I've never seen jello shots like this before!
Before we went out to the piano bar, we took Dave to Rock Bottom Brewery.

Family friends Mary and Dean joined us for the Baptism.

Ava and Savannah loved baby Jesus in his manger.



We spent Christmas Day with the Windis side of the family. We went to Carol and Tom's house and ate and visited with most of his Aunts and Uncles, cousins and Grandparents.

Santa and his elf even stopped by Carol's house! Great-Grandmother Mary "G.G." was on the the nice list this year.

Savannah was not too excited about Santa Claus.

Savannah got a stroller from Auntie Veronica and Uncle Keith. She loved pushing it around dressed up as Snow White! Too funny!
