Becky, Aaron, Zoë, Liam and Reggie: January 2013

My dear and wonderful Grandpa Ray passed away on December 30th. He was such an amazing person and couldn't have been a better grandfather. I feel so fortunate that we moved to Richland, making it easier for us to see him frequently in his final months. Grandpa, you are missed so much already and Zoë continues to paint butterflies for you and has asked me to put them in the mail and send them to heaven for you. We love you so much!

Aaron's Birthday

Being a Christmas Eve baby is great in a lot of ways, like getting to have tons of family around. I always try to separate Aaron's birthday as much as possible from Christmas, but unfortunately this years celebration was super hectic with a rushed dinner and party in order to get to the Christmas Eve service. Aaron didn't complain at all, but I was a little bummed that it was so crazy. I think next year we'll have to start the party at breakfast! Luckily Aaron did get some great gifts, like this shirt from his brother - Nice choice Jason :)

Christmas in Boise!

We were able to spend Christmas in Boise this year, which was so much fun! Zoe was so excited to have more time with all of her cousins, aunts/uncles, and grandparents. Here she is snuggling with one of her favorites, GrandPat.

Sophie taught Zoë how to play with legos!

Pretty girl on Christmas Eve

Liam was thoroughly entertained by his cousins. This is him cracking up with Matias and Andreas.

I thought there would be NO WAY to get all of the Bronner grandkids to cooperate for a picture, but they actually kind of did and we were able to at least have them all present in this shot :)
