What a Year!

A year ago, if you told this birthday man he’d have another child, and this one would be wearing pink, I wonder what he would have said!?!

We had a warm day in this bitter cold streak so we moved the cows back…I feel for the livestock and people to the East of us, sounds like they’re going to get a blizzard.
Andrew snapped this picture when he started the herd moving.

Sorry if I Brag a Little…

That young gentleman shaking the Pope’s hand…yeah, he’s my cousin, my Aunt Virginia’s son…Fr. Anthony.  He tries to say a Mass at St. Clements whenever he is here.  I think it’s important to put good, young priests, who are doing their best to Shepherd the Flock well, in our prayers.  I know we all need prayers, but somehow I think they need extra prayers to help them, help us.

Mary’s Baptism!

What a day to remember! Our little girl joined the Body of Christ today, in as the priest said a “historic church” & surrounded by wonderful people!  Let me tell you what, when it comes to work ethic you can’t have a better work crew than Grandpa Bob, Grandma Jen, Great Grandma Arleen, Uncle & Godfather Chris and that Andrew!  Thanks so much for all of your help in preparing the food!  Special shout out to Aunt Anna and her wonderful cake and Nancy for delivering it!  Also, thank you Catherine for being Godmother!  The musicians played beautifully also!  Thank you Mya, Mercedes, Malachi, Micah, and Marty! And thank you for joining them Christi & Lynnette! 

The Musicians!
Grandpa Russell’s head cheese and liver sausage went over very well!
Fun times with Good Neighbors!
Great Grandma Arleen! Mary is so blessed to have her Great Grandma attend her Baptism!
Dedicated Grandparents! They have their hands full!
Godmother Catherine meeting Mary!
She’s Baptized! Thank you Fr. Zwack!
Godfather Chris, Fr. Zwack, Godmother Catherine!
My Godfather, Ted!
Gietzen Grandparents, Mary is the 4th Generation on the Gietzen side to be Baptized in St. Clements. William Nicholas in 1893, William Frederick in 1927, William Russell in 1949 (Baptized in Sacred Heart in Glen Ullin), Monica in 1981, and now her!

January Thaw

The Boys enjoyed sledding today in the 42 degree weather!

Ready for his nap!
We had company for a short bit…they hadn’t seen the house yet, and they met little Mary Isabella!
Making homemade pizza!
Andrew & Sons Pizzeria, Haymarsh, North Dakota
Best part of winter evenings…Daddy reading!
Ok, the piano playing is nice too!
Good bye 2019, 🎄O Tannenbaum 🎶. This Christmas will always hold a very special place in my heart, laboring on Christmas Day & being delivered of a healthy girl…there are definitely moments in life that I am proud that will ripple for eternity, and that’s one of them. It’s sad to see the tree be taken down, but we decided we’d need the space for the Baptism party!

Big Stocking, Little Girl!

We love it Marie!  Thank you, thank you!

Big brothers love the detail on Mary’s Christmas Stocking!
She’s all set for Christmas 2020!
Admiring her Christmas Stocking! She’s 1 week old today!
So adorable!
We really appreciate the St. Paul’s Newman Center, Bison Catholic Covered in Prayer ministry. A good reminder that whatever life throws at you, God is always there! Also, it’s extra special that I met Andrew at the Newman Center.

Heaven

I think quite possibly the closest thing to Heaven is a safe and happy delivery of a healthy Baby!

Likely the hardest challenge of having a Baby Daughter!😉🥰. Cuddle & Nap Time!
Grandma couldn’t help herself, she heard the Baby was home and had to come and see!
The boys picked out some pretty girl things for Mary.
Our neighbor, Mary Ann, brought over supper for us and the cute little headband for Mary.
A minute ago everyone was playing a calm quiet card game. Now Daddy is being dogpiled.
A very busy Dad!
Electrical Engineer in training? Today she job shadowed Daddy for a half an hour.

Our Christmas Miracle

She joined our family at 2:33 this morning!  Andrew had to take a second look, it was a GIRL!  We are blessed beyond measure!

This sweet Baby got a visit from this sweet Lady!
I’m spoiled rotten by that husband of mine! A rocking chair for Baby & I!
