Christmas Joy

Trying to walk the baby out.
No baby yet.  We are just waiting and waiting...and waiting.  He was supposed to grace us with his presence but has decided it is much more comfortable in his little bubble.  If he doesn't come by Sunday then we go in Monday morning to be induced.  :P  Pray he comes this week. 

Wise-woman and Shepherd for the family Nativity
We stayed in Seattle due to the possibility of baby being born.  I was a little sad since it was a Rietz Christmas and most of my family was gathering in L-town and we were stuck here in Seattle.  I was pleasantly surprised at how much I loved staying here.  That is because we have some amazing friends and family here who took us into their homes and made this holiday season so special.  We loved it.  It was really neat to see the different traditions and feel the love.
My dear friend Bonnie came to visit me.










My family came up after Christmas for a few days and we explored Seattle.  It was Ryan's first time in Seattle and we packed it in.

We attract weirdos and we sure do love 'em.
