Abram Jorgen Schueler

Monday afternoon Papa headed for the Schueler's to sit with Ayden and Aubrey while Emily went to a Doctor's appointment. Emily called back and told me that they would be home shortly. Mitch would be coming to pick Emily up and head for the hospital. At 10:57 PM our 7th grandchild was born. But, Mitch and Emily would not tell us if it was a boy or girl and of course no name until we came to the hospital. With Ayden and Aubrey in bed the decision was made to wait until the next morning to go to the hospital. I could hardly sleep! It was a long night.

The next morning Ayden, Aubrey, Nana and Papa headed for the hospital to meet Abram Jorgen Schueler!

Going up!

Handsome little dude isn't he?!

God Bless Abram!

One very proud and happy Nana.

And, proud Papa.

Ayden loves his new brother.

Oh - come on Aubrey - SMILE!

Happy Aubrey and proud Daddy!

One very happy, blessed and beautiful family!

Christmas and New Year

Christmas and New Years are meant to be times with family. Christmas Eve we first traveled to Winthrop to go to church and then we drove to Lafayette to spend the evening with Doug's Mom, Brother, Sisters and spouses Larrie and Lou Ann, Sharon and Tom, Betty and Roger and Mary and Larry. It was a very pleasant evening visiting, enjoying each others company and of course eating some of our favorite Swedish treats.

Christmas Day Marion and I first went to the Schueler's and had brunch and watched the enjoyment while Ayden, Aubrey and yes Mitch and Emily opened Christmas gifts.

After a very relaxing time at the Schuelers we drove to the Jagows and enjoyed time together with Jenna, Seth, Sarah and Bill.

That evening Stephen, Klair, Brienna and Conner came to our house. They stayed Friday and Saturday night. Stephen and I went ice fishing on Friday. On Saturday we had our family Christmas at our home. Then once again we went ice fishing - this time Mitch joined us.

On Sunday Stephen and family headed out early in the morning (Stephen had tickets for the Vikings game).

On New Years Day we went sleding with the Jagows and Schuelers. What a great day for this. Everyone had a great time.

God Bless You All in 2009!
