Emily and Matthew

Heather and Emily


On December 21st, we enjoyed a lovely Christmas banquet at church. Heather's younger sister Emily poses with her in front of one of the festively ornamented trees.

Good bye, Hannah!



Before she left to go back to Bob Jones, Hannah and I went out for breakfast at our favorite coffee shop in town. Delicious!

Happy Birthday, Heather!



A dozen roses and a beautiful broach, as well as another sonnet to add to my collection were all gifts from Thomas. Here we are with some birthday cake.

A Surprise Birthday Party!


Thomas really surprised me on the 24th when he arranged a meeting with my sister Melissa and her husband Dan at Wild Fire Restaurant in Chicago. Thanks, honey!

The Nordgrens

Thomas's friend BJ was in our wedding, and we had the privilege of spending our Thanksgiving weekend with BJ, his wife Tammy, and their four children.
