Big update and where to see more videos

Hi everyone, we had a delay in getting the blog updated and I must apologize for that. We've been very busy and that trend may continue so here is a great place to check for new videos, it's our YouTube site and it gets new videos before this blog does...

Also, you'll see that there are a lot of pictures here and then the new videos will follow. If you get to the bottom of the page just click on the text that says "Older Posts" and you'll be taken to another page that has more pics/videos.

I mentioned we've been busy, well here is a quick rundown of what has been going on in February. Nathan went to his first Super Bowl party, hosted by our friends Scott, Alyene, Erin, and Logan. We were happy the Steelers won and Nathan looked great in his special football outfit that came from our wonderful friends the Easterly's - thank you so much! And thanks to the Schneidewinds for hosting!

Then we had a wonderful visit with Mom and Dad, they're first time meeting their new grandson Nathan! During their trip we took lots of walks, visited the farmers market and the Ferry Building, celebrated Mom and Dad's Anniversary at the Chinese New Year Parade and much more. Nathan loved spending time with his Grandma and Pop Pop and he can't wait to meet more family in July when we go to Columbus for Lindsey and Adam's wedding!

After their visit it was Valentines weekend and we celebrated by staying home. It was awesome.

This weekend here has been packed with fun and visitors. Jeannine came up from Fresno with Grace and Vivian and the three of them came over for dinner along with Viola on Friday night. The next day the same crew all met at the SF Zoo. Today is Sunday the 22nd and it's been raining all day so we stayed home and took care of chores and now we're about to watch the Oscars - go Milk!

That's all for now, lots of love to you all and we will be in touch soon.
