Welcome home, Carter

Carter came home from his mission to Carlsbad, California on December 20th.  It was so much fun to see him!  I got done with work on the 16th, and Chris did not finish until the 21st, so he sent me on the shuttle to see my brother.  We love having him home--it adds a spice to our lives that we forgot disappeared when he left!

 So Mom and Dad and I went to the party store to get balloons.  I had the idea of purchasing Tweedledee and Tweedledum, just as a joke.  They thought it was a brilliant idea.  We think we are so funny!
 Grandma and Grandpa anxiously awaiting his arrival

 Hi, Grandma!
 Hello, Mom!

Happy Birthday to us!

 Our birthdays were rather low-key this year, which is just fine!  Here are some pictures of us with our presents.  We just went out to dinner together for both birthdays, which was great!





 I got  new lens for my very cool camera.  I used it tonight at Max's birthday, and I really like it!
