2025
A New Year, a New Grandson!
Another year come and gone, time for an update on the life of Lisa!
The biggest and best news of this past year was the safe delivery and birth of our grandson Aidan Stanley Helios Sierra. He was just a tiny little thing when he was born, 4 lbs! He is a happy, plump little guy now at almost 9 months old and the joy of Grandma and Ojii-chan.❤
Dear readers will only get an incognito view of our little man as he is not allowed public photos for fear of paparazzi! 😋 You will have to take my word for it that he is the CUTEST little guy!
Katie was the cutest little pregnant Mama. 😊❤
Here I am when I was pregnant with her, How time flies!
I remember being so excited to have a daughter...still am!
Two other major milestones of 2024 was my 60th birthday and our 40th wedding Anniversary! We had a cozy celebration,( just the kind I enjoy..I am not a big party kind of gal)at Katie and Cris's and Gary got me a Kindle Scribe..now I can journal without leaving notebooks in storage all over the world!😜
Our 40th Anniversary was lovely. We took our annual trip to Costa Rica and relaxed, ate good food and explored San Jose.
Forty wonderful years of life, love and adventure!!!
The ministry work has been continuing as well. We were invited up a mountain for dinner at the home of one of our families.
The view was great..but it was quite the climb! The city in the valley is
where the church is located.
Coffee on top of the world!
Chrismas this year was extra special as we were able to celebrate with our daughters. This is the first time in MANY years that we have all been together for Christmas so of course we made tamales! ❤ I love my sweet daughters SO much!
There have been a few bumps in the road of 2024, life isn't always a smooth road. Gary's mom has had a very rough year after falling and breaking her leg and arm with several set backs...but she is the toughest little Japanese lady I know and is still with us at 94years old!
We lost a good pastor friend to a sudden heart attack and other family drama occurred as well but such is life. Overall though, 2024 was a good year and I look forward to the new things in 2025!
