Another Angel in Heaven.

Brock's Stepmother Kathy passed away this last Saturday morning at the young age of 63. She had been married to Brock's Dad for almost 26 years and will be greatly missed. It's always hard to lose someone you love, but even harder this time of year. On the bright side, we we've able to spend lots of time with family and loved ones.

After the tears were dried the celebration of Grandma Petersen's life began and a food fight...
Brock and Mike dancing...I know Grandma Petersen must have gotten a kick out of watching this.
The end result...I can't take these people anywhere!
We've had Brock's sister Tami and her family staying with us and their December baby...Mikaila turned 15 the other night. Mikaila's favorite food is shrimp and Brock found a new fun place to eat that served shrimp along with other yummy seafood.

The whole crew at Hot and Spicy Crawfish!

Brock and his lobster!
Brock and his cousin Jamie and Aunt Sharon.
The Shmidt girls...Tami, Mackenzie, and Mikaila.

The food was great! We got to wear bibs and eat with our hands, but pulling the heads of the shrimp freaked the kids out a little.
We ended the night with cheesecake and a good game of liars dice.
Happy Birthday Mikaila!

We love and miss you Grandma Petersen!
