Feburary 5, 2012 little Avery Grace decided to grace us with her presence. She was a gorgeous 7 lbs 11 oz and 19 inches long! I was so excited when I received the phone call on Friday morning! Daniel drove to Louisiana as soon as I got out of my last class and got to see little Avery the next morning in the hospital and welcome her home later that afternoon. I was so sad when I had to leave on Sunday knowing that I had to wait until Spring Break to see my niece again...it'll be weird not getting to see her as much as I see Annelise, but I know that the times I do get to spend with her will be just as special. Congratulations Jessica and Jeff! And welcome to the world Miss Avery Grace! I love you all!
I was blessed to be apart of the Riemer family vacation this past week! We woke up and got on the road around 4 am on Wednesday and arrived in Illinois that evening. We visited some of their family up there so it was really great to get to know some of Daniel's extended family. Also, I got to experience snow! I sledded, walked on ice, saw it snow, built a snowman, and had snowball fights! I had a blast and I was so excited that I was asked to be apart of this trip!
