This past week, we were thrilled to host friends from Minneapolis, and throw a baby shower for Troy's sister. It was busy, but fun!
Four friends (one new, three old) who work for Desiring God were in Austin for a conference and needed a place to stay. It was great to catch up with Lukas, Andrew and Edd, and make a new friend, Marty...who became Troy's new ping pong arch rival. Troy and the men in our extended family also attended the conference and enjoyed learning, and are still thinking about the book of Job. It's always a joy to reunite with friends who continue to follow the Lord and are serving Him with their lives. However, we were too distracted by Lukas's Mohawk to take any pictures while we were together. SAD!
On Saturday, Troy's mom, sister and Stevi threw a baby shower for Troy's little sis (Alisa). We had a fabulous time. The best part was making onesies for the little one with iron-on transfers of Peter and Alisa's favorite things (see photo). What a stylin' baby she'll be! If you can't see them, here's the top three clothing items made: #3 The onesie with "Delicious Corndogs" and a picture on the rear end, #2 The shirt with a picture of Ronald Reagan, and #1 The Dunder Miflin Paper Company shirt.
Of course the food was delicious and (thanks to Erin) laid out quite beautifully.
Finally, we know the real reason you visit this blog. It isn't to hear about us, but to see pictures of our food loving linebacker. Here's a few...

Well, as much as I love your aspiring linebacker, I still love hearing what Mom & Pop are up to... so keep posting the Troy/Stevi adventures/photos too! :)
What a fun and clever way to make onesies....maybe we will do something like that for Halloween or for just plain fun!!! Too cool (btw~we will use t-shirts!!) :o)
Oh Stevi, Jude is so adorable, it makes me sad that he won't grow up living close to his Great Aunt Dawn. And of course all the other Webers & Hanenburgs. I hope ya'll have a great Thanksgiving. You all will be missed. Love ya, Aunt Dawn
