Welcome Austin!

We welcome Austin Bryan Mauws, born at 9:17 pm December 31, 2010. He weighed 6 pounds, 12 ounces and was 19 inches long. Another perfect baby boy, we are so blessed!

Austin shares his birthday with his Great Grandma Dorothy Roy and her son David, as well as Clair Brustkern.

Dinner at Jen & Court's

Playdough!

The whole family!

Sweet kids!

We enjoyed another dinner with the whole Mauws family at Jen & Court's the next day when everyone was home. Michele and Jace announced their engagement to add to the excitement! We are so happy for those two and look forward to having Jace join the family. What a wonderful Christmas!

Christmas Day 2010

Christmas morning we woke up to Issac's new basketball hoop that Santa brought. He was so excited to play!

Daddy and Issac

Later Christmas morning, Papa Steve and Grandma Kim arrived to spend Christmas with us!

I had to post this picture-it's one Issac took when he got ahold of my camera and it turned out amazing! A future photographer? Most of his shots are close-up self portraits of his nose, mouth, eyes, or fingers.

Family picture

We all enjoyed a wonderful prime rib dinner at Marvin and Cindy's, then an afternoon of relaxing. Or trying to relax when you weren't the target of Issac's new nerf dart gun! No one got too much sleep, but we enjoyed lots of good conversation and fun with our families.

Christmas Eve 2010

Decorating the Christmas tree

Christmas eve at home

Christmas eve dinner at home-Chicken spaghetti. A recipe passed down from Cindy's grandmother. Bryan's family joined us along with Grandma Rubel.

Christmas Tree Hunting

We had a fun afternoon snowmobiling at the Lee Ranch and hunting for a Christmas tree. Issac enjoyed his first snowmobile ride, and we found a perfect tree. At home Issac decorated sugar cookies for with our hot cocoa.
