My sister Becky went over to visit Melissa and the baby twins at the hospital today and I convinced her to send me a few pictures while she was there and here we go!

They are so precious!

An Auntie again!!!

David's wife, Melissa had her twin girls today. They named them Kimberly and Abigail.

Kimmy is 5 lbs 12 oz and 17.5" long
Abby is 5 lbs 6 oz and 18" long

I'm waiting on some pictures, but I'll share once I get them. I'M SO EXCITED!!!

I really wish that I could be there, but with work as it is that will have to wait a few months perhaps.

YAY!

And So Life Goes On...

On Thursday (Yesterday, Jan 14th) about 4:30 pm one of my roommates called and told me that our house had been broken into. My initial reaction was disbelief. Then she confirmed that her laptop, Wii and the other laptops in the house were gone.

We were upset and mad.

Emma called the police. They came and dusted for finger prints. They lied. They told us that the powder would come up with soap and water and out of the carpet with a quick vacuum...it didn't. Ask the back door...it's still feeling a little black even though we've washed it several times. Maybe the officers haven't had to clean up after themselves before....







Despite how we felt then and since, good things have come out of this experience.

First, Life goes one. Yes it was frustrating and even scary, but we survived and life goes on.

Second, and probably most important, was seeing how much people reached out and help us in any way they could. We are so loved and have amazing friends. Tragedy, no matter how small, can bring out the best in people. Let's focus on that.

(After the break-in and the cops had left...calling family and talking. Can you say bonding expereince?)
