Cousin Craze

Last week, Kiran and Ellery were in heaven with their cousins from TX here for a visit! We are so blessed that they got to come back soon after a trip in November. We were very happy to have Addie, Doak, Natalie and Papa in TN with us for several days. We had so much fun with them here. It is always wonderful to see the kids playing together. They just pick right up where they left off. Of course, they still grow and change a lot (especially the little ones) between visits, and it is neat to see what they are each "into" and how their play changes each visit.

It was an extra special visit, too, because Olivia got to meet more of her family for the first time!




Getting to know Papa!



I love this sweet photo!



Hi, Aunt Natalie!

Brother-Sister Time!



Okay, you crazy boys! Enough karate in the restaurant!



I can still hear sweet Doak's adorable laugh (and deep little voice)! Kiran loved making Doak
laugh. I know why! His giggles are irresistible!



Pizza night! YUMMY!







Fun at the Zoo!

What awesome memories! Jeff and I loved having Nat and Papa here, too! It is always great for the grownups to have some time to hang out in the evenings. We missed Cookie and Keri, but we can't wait to see them soon, along with everyone else! And, we can't wait to meet Cousin #6 in December! We love our sweet families! Thanks again for coming you guys! We love you all so much!
