Sisters




There is nothing quite like getting together with my sisters. A few weeks ago, I had the chance to visit Em, Ike, and Lucy in Spokane along with my sister Jennifer and her daughter Emma. It was so wonderful to be together, see Em's cute house, play with my nieces, get a good fall fix, go apple picking, and eat good food. Thanks Em and Ike for such a great time!

Welcome, Ward Jr.!



We're so excited for the birth of Matt and Sara's first baby -- Cannon Matthew Ward. What a lucky little guy to have such great parents. We can't wait to meet him! He's the first male grandchild to be born in our family in seven years (five girls in between). Such a cutie!
