Corless Clan Connection - 6 February 2011 - Michigan

Dear Family,
Congratulations to Dan & Lara. Samuel Gregory Mills was born on Thursday the 3rd of February weighing in a 7 lbs. & 13 oz. (3.55 Kg). Mom & Dad enjoyed very much the video call from them through the WiFi in the hospital. They got see the little angelic arrival, Samuel, peacefully resting and also were able to see and talk with the elated parents, Dan & Lara.   Thanks, Thanks, Thanks be to Heavenly Father for the safe arrival of Papa & Nona’s 21st grandbuddy. It is truly a great blessing that all is well with them.  Congratulations!
Snow and more snow - The wind driven white fluffy stuff started to fall Tuesday night and filled our driveway to the point that it took Dad all Wednesday morning to dig it out and clear it. The snow kept falling and Dad cleared the driveway and sidewalks again in the late afternoon. Saturday, the snow came again and filled driveway and sidewalks; this time Ryan was here and helped to clear it off.  This has to be most snow accumulation and extended cold spell in recent history. Global warming - more like North American mini Ice Age this year.
Overnighter -  Friday night, Ryan & Maureen and tribe had an overnighter at Papa & Nona’s because Ryan & Maureen had an early morning meeting at the stake center in preparation for this summer’s Youth Conference Trek.  Unfortunately, Jacob was sick and emptied his stomach during the night. In the morning, Papa made pancake, egg, bacon and hash brown breakfast but there were not too many takers.  Thankfully, Jacob was soon feeling better.
Sidhu’s 50th - Saturday night, Mom & Dad attended the birthday party for Suki Sidhu.  There was socializing, picture taking, dancing and food & drink. Mom & Dad got to know some new people. Dad got a geography lesson about the excellent farmland and climate in Punjab (Five Rivers), which is very similar to Rio Grande do Sul and Uruguay.  Mom enjoyed dancing to Punjabi music with the other guests. 
Sophia’s Birthday Party - Ryan & Maureen hosted the party celebrating Sophia’s 4th birthday with a spaghetti and salad for dinner and cake a ice cream for dessert. Games and fun time for all. Happy Birthday Sophia. pastedGraphic.pdf
Love y’all, Mom & Dad
