2011 Update - December 2011 (2nd Half)

As you may remember on the previous post we were awaiting the arrival of Ann and Jared to find out it we are getting a new Grandson or Granddaughter.  Well, the day has arrived and everyone is waiting for the plane to arrive at the Branson airport.  Ann has said they will dress in the appropriate color for the new baby.

Well, it looks like it's a boy!!  Mom is really starting to glow or is it show?

Now it's just wait until May and little Parker Wilson Lowe will arrive.  We will definitely have pictures to share at the happy time. 

The next set of pictures were taken Christmas Day 2011, the first Christmas in the new house.

Tom, Laura, Clara and William at the Ozark Dream getting ready to open presents. 

Grandma Reubin, William, and Clara playing with the new doll bunk bed that Grandma Reubin had made by Jr. Staley, the cabinet maker.  The wood and stain is the same as Tom and Laura's enterainment center that Jr. made for them.  Grandma also had anothr bunk bed made in the same wood and stain as our house for the Grandkids bedroom downstairs.

Clara checking out her new animal pillow.

William and Laura (Mom) with the new John Deere plate.

Christmas Day 2011 was just beautiful.  This is a view of the front of the house with Bull Shoals Lake in the background.

Well, that's about it for the year 2011.  It has been very exciting and passed very quickly. To close, this is a picture of the back of the house.  Spring and summer will be here soon so the deck and back porch will be the place to be.

Visit often in 2012 for continued updates.

Happy New Year to all!!!
