In California, we visited with Greg's uncle Bob and family- which included seeing Greg's cousin's wife whose name happens to be Stephanie Burt! (She's on the left wearing the white sweater.)
Clausen's with Greg's parents- Doug and Margie Burt.Well, we are home from our Christmas vacation in California. An update is long past due. Here's a bunch of photos to give you a taste of our trip. I couldn't get them to load in order so we'll skip around a bit. A bit thanks to my little sister, Liz, for hosting all 15 of us Clausen's for over a week!! She did a most excellent job feeding and sleeping all of us under one roof. It was great to have all the little cousins together playing so nicely with each other. It is sad we don't live closer. Maybe one day they'll all move to Denver!! We'll keep praying and hoping. Enjoy!
