June 2012 - Donny suggests we look into buying a house. I tell him he's crazy.

August 2012 - Received the keys to our first home! :) Spend the next couple of months working on our little fixer before we move in.

September 2012 - Promise Stiver was born to Donny's bro and his wife, Brandon and Melissa Stiver. Yes, there are two Melissa Stiver's. :)

December 2012 - Donny's family came out to California for Christmas and we host our first holiday gathering. Our house was full! It was pretty awesome!, Callan Chan was born to my sister and her husband (Tammera and Eli), and later in the month the Chan fam drove from Tucson for a visit. They stayed at our house. So fun!
