Some of my closest cousins came to visit. I use to spend a week with these girls every summer growing up. They lived in California and invited me to visit. We had sooo much fun together. Now I hardly get to see them so it is so much fun when they come to town. I only got to spend an afternoon with them (not enough time girls!!!) but it was so good to see them! My boys think they are great! Especially you "Jackson" (I am not sure why that is easier to say than Jaclyn)
The following week, my uncle Jerry invited us all up to my grandparents old farm. He bought the house and farm from my grandparents when they got to old to take care of it anymore. He has done a great job of fixing it up and occasionally invites us all over for a BBQ. There is nothing better than his deep fried chicken breasts, dutch oven potatoes and fresh vegetables from the farm. My moms family is some of the best cooks in the world. He has tractors, 4-wheelers and lots of old barns for my boys to explore......it is definitely a little boy paradise! Thanks for having us!

Carter is in heaven whenever there is a sandbox and he loved that this old tire was filled with sand.
My uncle Marv was so good with Myah, he even held her so I could eat my dinner with BOTH hands!
And this last picture is a random one but I thought I should write about our first born sometime. This is Scooby and he just turned 6 years old! He was just diagnosed with Lupus but shouldn't have too many problems other than we will have to give him steroids for the rest of his life. His nose and eyes had started looking really bad....all crusty but the medicine is already working and he seems to be feeling much better! We love you Scooby!

aww...so good to Scooby - I was wondering if you still had him!! Your cousin Jaclyn looks exactly how I remember her - I don't think she's aged since we were kids! Crazy!
You're right. One afternoon was not enough time. I had such a great time with you guys. I'm sad that I live so far away. :(
Val - you are too kind. I definitely see the wrinkles and feel the aches and pains in my old body. That was such a nice complement.
