Midwinter memories

Some pictures from Christmas and New year...

These are mainly from the wedding and from visiting with the Olsons.

I will post more later of Christmas with family and stuff.

Ella's last night out!

All of us... We were all excited for her to get married... Not so much for her moving away from us!!

Last minute preparations

Not good quality at all... It was freezing!!

But they look great don't they?

The beautiful couple and the adorable flowergirls and ringbearers :)

Johanna, Matilda, Emily, Jed, Josiah, Ben

We went to Abc to warm up and eat. The kids did a really good job! So patient!

...for better for worse...

Mr and Mrs Neil Olson

May God bless your marriage!

Happy and blessed new year!!!

New year's day, Shane

It was so much getting to know all these kiddos!

Too bad they had to leave by the time I finally learned all their names :(

All fun comes to an end... Saying goodbye is one thing I do not like!

God be with you till we meet again, Ivanna!

This is from our family dinner for my dad's 70th birthday

Happy birthday dad!
