Nikki, Gina, Jen & Jon Come to Cincy

Yeah, I know, it's April and these visits were all around Christmas and New Years. There is a bit of catching-up to do over here!

Nikki and Gina came to visit us (and IKEA) from Illinois in early December. We unintentionally stumbled upon this very scenic spot in Kentucky looking across the Ohio River at downtown Cincy. Jen made her trip over just after Christmas and Jon's was soon after the new year on his short trek from Raleigh, NC to Flagstaff, AZ. We loved having you all here and miss you all so much during the rest of the year.

Strasburg, Illinois Baby Shower

A few weeks ago, we were thrown a baby shower by Tara's high school friends back in Strasburg, Illinois. We had a great time catching up with good friends and receiving much-needed advice about what we're getting into here very shortly. The cake seen at the far-right is proudly on display in the baby's room. Tara is counting down the days until it can be unwrapped to get to the tasty center. Thanks to all of you for hosting us and for your generous gifts. We hope to see you all much more often.
