Just a few more!


Also in October, Nanny and Papa, baby sat so Lisa and Kevin could go to her 30th High school reunion. Boy, has it really been that long! We enjoyed the night out. They also let us go to eat by ourselves again another night while we were there. It was wonderful! 
The other picture is of Andrew in front of our Christmas tree. He helped us decorate and rearrange a few ornaments. Of course, we hung all the unbreakable at the bottom of the tree! He really has had a lot of fun this season. It's been great fun to watch! He really loves all the lights and keeps pointing to all the "yights" as we go buy them. 

Catch up!





Sorry it's been so long since I posted. It's been a crazy fall into winter. These are just a few of many pictures I could post.  After Andrew was released from the hospital in September we went to Lisa's parents and Kevin and all worked on the barn. It needed new siding. We stayed for about a week and got that done and spent time with family also. It was great to have the extra help with Andrew at the time. A great title for my Dad and Andrew's picture would be "I want to be just like Dad!" He got Kevin's tape measure and is measuring the siding. Andrew spent his first Halloween at church as a Dalmation. Thanks for the costume Janice! Isn't he cute! My sister, Nora and her husband, Gary came to visit and Andrew had fun popping her bubbles! Andrew is also starting to love books. He has fun sitting in his rocking chair and looking through the books and asks us to read to him. Lisa's Aunt Nora wanted to give him  a love for reading and periodically sends him books. In late November, Andrew and Lisa went to a holiday festival at a friend's church and he met Santa for the first time. I think he liked the balls on the tree more than anything else! 
I'll post a few more pictures in a bit!

Christmas from Grandpa John and Grandma Nancy

Andrew had so much fun opening his first Christmas present. We filmed it for his Nebraska grandparents so they could see him opening their present. He really loved it!  Hope everyone had a blessed Christmas! We sure did! We are so blessed to have Andrew in our lives this year. He is really starting to blossom. May God richly bless you all.
