The comings and goings...

December and the beginning of January were busy for us!
Aside from unpacking, getting to know the area and new people we also had so much fun visiting with several of my cousins! My cousin Abe and his wife Sarah and their little girl, Tally live in Meridian, about 15 mins. from us so we've been doing something with them at least once a week! This has been such a blessing because they've really taken us in, shown us the area and treated us to some good dinners and fun!
Abe got tickets to the Humaitarian Bowl here in Boise which he invited Chris to go to (and they had so much fun!) Abe's brother Alonzo, and his wife Ashley came down from Bozeman, Montana for the game too so we got to meet Ashley for the first time and catch up with "Zo." We went to a great Thai restaurant right down the road from where we live which was soooooo good!!! The next night we went to Abe and Sarah's for some great Mexican food!
The following week my cousin Chaz (from my dad's side of the family) came up to Boise with his wife, Dessie. She is from here and it was a lot of fun to meet her and catch up with Chaz who I hadn't seen since the day Chris and I got married!!! It's been really great meeting new members of our family!!!

Olivia took right to Chaz! She's been meeting so many new people lately that she has gotten used to being "passed around!"
And, last of all, my cousin Lorraine and her husband, Geoff passed through Boise on their way back from Montana where they spent the holidays. They recently moved to Portland, Oregon so it was fun to see them and have a nice visit.
We enjoyed an early breakfast with them at Abe and Sarah's!!!
