A visit with the cousins in pictures...

My brother and his family were here last week. We had a great visit. Here is the visit in pictures...


So Evy speaks in complete sentences and Rand says NOTHING. But he's got a good 5 inches and


4 shoe sizes on her.


I love Layla's sweet hugs. In that way she reminds me so much of Aaron at that age.


This is a good representation of what it's like when we get together with any of our cousins.


Love this.


The girls are definitely the most enthusiastic basketball cheerleaders David and Jacob have ever had.


The cake I made had for us had explosive diarrhea. I'm thinking I should have let the layers cool a bit more before icing it?


Love this


Footy pajamas and backpacks.


And, I promise that my beautiful sister-in-law was here too. We had a great time - talking theology, knitting, playing Dominion. I miss all four of you!

    I would have to say that in the first picture, Rand looks a lot like Aaron did at that age with that haircut. What a trip down memory lane for me!!!
