Hello everyone!  I know, it has been a very long time since this blog was updated, but it has been very surreal at our house this last month and a half.  There will be some major changes here, but nothing has been set in stone so, nothing to share as of yet.  I promise to catch you all up when I can.

On March 13th, Claire celebrated her 9th birthday with a quiet party at home.  She invited her best friends from school and they all had a wonderful time just hanging out.  They went outside and ripped around while Papa (yes, we were lucky enough to have Nana and Papa come and celebrate with us) and Curtis roasted weiners for hotdogs.  Claire is very blessed to have found such great friends at her new school.  I would have them all back tomorrow if they wanted to come.

Nana and herself.  The cherries are
