Hi Chris and Holly So glad that everyone had such a great time at the baby shower. Baby showers are such special times and also that Holly got to celebrate her first baby shower ever. She is learning a lot about having fun since you two moved in together!! Love the nature pictures as well. I am jealous that your doves are back so soon. I still haven't heard any of them yet but I know it won't be long.

You and Holly have a great week. Hugs--John Debbie Mya Abby and Allie

What a wonderful day :) I’m glad Holly got to enjoy family time with you all. But... what is ziti??!!
New Moon is probably my favourite of the Twilight series. I hope Holly enjoys it.
