Winter with the Rifes

Well, someone mentioned that we should start up on a family blog since we are getting ready for the most exciting time of our life. We are expecting Baby Jackson in May, and as of now our due date is still May 11th.
This was a fun winter for us! We were able to go home to Seattle and visit with everyone for Christmas this year. It was especially eventful since G-Pa Dime celebrated his 50th- good thing we're finally giving him a grandchild :)
It was a really fun visit home, although too short as always. We really made an effort to keep it low key and spend a lot of time with our parents and brothers. It was one of the most enjoyable Holiday Seasons we've had.

Almost 10 years now and still kissin'.

Getting ready for G-Pa Dime's 50th.

Nicole and Matt,
We are so happy for you guys! Nicole you look amazing and wonderful! A little boy! I'm thrilled for you. May be we will have a girl this time around (due April 14th). It will be comforting to know that there will be at least on boy her age that we know will be raised well enough for our little girl :) I know you will be fantastic parents!!!!!
We miss you both and can't wait to see photos of Jackson!
Love,
Valori, Keith and Quinn

Yay, Matt and Nicole! This is so exciting and I love reading your blog. Nikah, first of the BAD girls to get married, soon the first to have a baby...I think the rest of us are lagging far behind! :) (not that it's a race, of course.)

Keep the blog entries coming!

love, jeni
