Super Bowl Sunday at the Ham's

We were fortunate to have everyone home on Super Bowl Sunday. Joel and Stacy traveled to Indiana to pickup their new puppy (more about that in another blog entry), and spent the weekend with us. Eric, Nancie, Jeremy, and Chrissy came to the house for lunch on Sunday and we all watched the Super Bowl that evening. Attached are some pictures taken that day.

Briggs/Nelson Christmas

Here are a few pics from
our Christmas this year.
The last row are a few pics
from the Nelson side of
Christmas. My brother
made Kenny a cute little picnic
table. The bottom-center
pic is of Harry and Jada
(Andrew & Jill's #4).
The bottom right pic shows
Kenny, Jenna, Sam, and Zeke.

Sorry this is so late, but we thought that we would post some pics from the Ham Christmas! We hope everyone had a great holiday season! Happy New Year!!!!!

Cousin's Get-Together

Bert & Molly Bouwman hosted a Cousin's Get-Together on Saturday, December 30th in their home.

We gathered for a delicious brunch where Molly had prepared egg bakes, fruit salad, bacon, sausage...Sandy Martin brought Grandma Lula's sticky buns...Sara Briggs brought a wide assortment of donuts...Stacy & I had the easy task of bringing juice...well, you get the idea, we ate good!

Those present were Bert & Molly (P) Bouwman with Berand (sp?), Bronwen, and MacLaren; Daniel & Brenda Bixby with Elise, Benjamin, and Isabelle; Eric Turner with Olivia and Eva (Wendy (P) was gone on a trip...she called us from Orlando); Andy & Sara Briggs with Kenneth and Harrison; Joel & Sandy (P) Martin with Jane and Maggie; Joel & Stacy (P) Ham. The (P)=Pregnant. ;)

After eating, the men gathered for an intense game of Mafia (taught to us by teacher Joel M.), while the women conversed and the children played. Thanks Joel for teaching us the fun game! Unfortunately, it seemed like such a short time later, we had to leave. Time flies!

We had a great time with our cousins and can't wait to do it all again very soon! Thanks again Bert & Molly for putting it on!

Thanksgiving up North

It was fun to go up to "God's Country" for Thanksgiving this year. Mom put on a feast, and Dad even serenaded us!
We (the Bixby's) had a wonderful time up there with Dad and Mom and Tom and Leesa and family.
