Aunt JoAnna makes it to Austin

What a blessing it has been to have so many family members make the trip to meet little Savannah. During these first few weeks of her life we've had nearly all of her aunties and uncles in town to welcome her and help us in whatever way possible. The last of our house guests was my dear sister JoAnna, whom I still lovingly refer to as "kiddo" and my little sister even though she is grown now! It was so fun to spend time with her and to hear her talk about her plans for the future as a grown person...Right now she is putting her education first and even started college a semester earlier than her peers because she graduated early from HS. In addition she has a missionary and is planning to get married when he finishes his service. I am always so impressed by the spirit she exudes and the example that she is. I am so glad that she has always let the spirit guide her and that she has made such good choices throughout her life. How blessed we are to have had Aunt JoAnna here to help out with Savannah and to be able to draw from her faith and love. We love you kiddo and are looking forward to many more fun visits in the future. Thanks to everyone again for all that you have done to help us and support us in welcoming Savannah. We are truly blessed to have such a wonderful family.
