Welcome to our new blog.  We finally decided to get involved in the whole blogging world....so here it goes.  

We have been very busy these last couple of weeks.  We went to California for Christmas and we had an awesome time!!  Kendal and Blaire were very excited to see their Grandma,Papa and Auntie Missy.  Kendal was especially excited to see her favorite cousin, Kali.  She followed Kali around every where she went.  It was so funny.  Everything was, "Kali this, and Kali that."  Kendal still talks about how her and Kali played dolls, and how her and Kali played in the rain.  

Everyone was not so surprised to see how big Blaire has gotten.  She is now 19 pounds....which is just about the same weight that Kendal was at this age.  I guess we just grow big babies!  She received some 9 month pajamas and outfits, and we are now wearing them every day, because in about a week, they won't fit any more!   

Christmas night we decided to go to Phoenix to see the other half of our family.  We left California at 8pm and got into Phoenix at around 3am their time.  We called the house when we were close, but no one answered.  So we opened the garage and started knocking on the door.  Still....no answer.  Called the house again and nothing.  No one.   So I started knocking VERY hard on the back door and finally Aron answered the door, in his underwear.   Apparently they had thought that someone might be breaking in.  I guess their had been a home invasion a couple doors down the month earlier.  Nice.  I know we really scared Bob and Aron.  Mary was still sleeping, so I sent Lulu in to wake her up.  They were sooo excited!  

We ended up having a great time in Phoenix seeing all of the family.  We were able to see all of our relatives from Chicago and Wisconsin.  So fun!!!
