(just an illustration, not actually the triplets)

We have two new nephews and one new niece.
Annette's sister Bethel Ann and her husband, George Randall, doubled the size of their family by giving birth to triplets. Now they have four children under the age of three (their first child still has a few days before his 3rd birthday).

Two are boys and one is a girl, and even though they were born a month early, none needed supplemental oxygen. Click here for the announcement letter which includes all those pertinent baby details like name, weight, length, favorite 19th century author.

One of our very best friends, Susan (Rogers) Davis, came to visit for 48 hrs. We mostly just hung out talking, eating and laughing.

Kudos to her husband, Hill, for a) suggesting that Susan come to Mexico to visit us and b) taking care of their two boys while she was with us. If you can believe there are people this nice, the motivation for Susan's trip was to carry a huge bag full of our household stuff back to the U.S. Since we leave Mexico next February, it's got to get back somehow.

Thank you so much Susan and Hill :-)
