fabulous friends

in addition to the countless family members we were blessed to be with this holiday season, some of our closest friends came to visit! our good friends, the maios, were in town to celebrate Christmas with sarah's family. their little peanut, genevieve, is three months old and cute as a button!




another exciting visitor was "auntie" laurie. laurie is my BESTEST friend and, let's face it, practically my sister. she lives in scottsdale, AZ and was here for a week. it was such fun to hang out with her. she was here in may to meet miles, but he decided that mommy's tummy was way too cozy and didn't make an appearance. darn. so this was the first time laurie got to play with miles. he thought she was wonderful (of course) and we can't wait to see her again soon. it's hard to say goodbye, but we promised her that we would post lots of pictures on the blog. these are just for you, laurie...we miss you already!
