Rare postings and lacking in pictures

We have failed miserably in the blog groupie - not keeping up our postings. So here we shall try again. We had a beautiful Christmas, spending time with both the Olferts and the Linds.

The Olferts~

We celebrated both the birth of Hadden, the newest grandchild, and the welcoming of Becca Southern, Caleb's fiance, into our family. Dad and Mom O were so gracious in picking us up in Minn and taking us the rest of the way to Billings in sub....sub...zero weather. It was a blessing to be able to see all the family as Landon and Mindy and Dhana came down for Christmas and later Caleb.

The Linds~

It was a peaceful and quiet Christmas with Dad and Mom L at their house. We were able to travel to WY for a day to see Anthony's brothers and their families. We even got to build a snowfort! Steve and Bonnie came back a few days later and we were fortunate to see them for a few days too.

We are so thankful for our families, we hope to instill in ConLai the same love and grace our families had for us.

So....we just realized that we have no pictures of Christmas...we'll have to go beg Grandma for her precious frozen moments.

Wait! ...don't leave yet. We do have pics of ConLai's 1 year photos a friend of a friend took for us. Her name is Marianne Bach. She is a student at Moody and does a phenomenal job at photography. Please forgive us for the lack of phototaking at Christmas, hopefully the shots that Marianne took will win you (I have a feeling they will.)
