What a great post about your husband! Hope he has a great birthday! I am all caught up on your blog---such cute little girls you guys have. I loved all your posts about Christmas-ecspecially walking around the Christmas tree in Burton. That is such a great tradition. How is that baby doing? She is so pretty-I bet Hannah is just the best helper! Hope things are going good. I need to call you and actually talk...instead of leaving you these long comments... :)
