Reunion (not well documented)

It was year two of Family Reunion at the farm.  It started by meeting up with Nate's brother and his family at Nate's folks house.  It was so great to have boy cousins for Will to play with.  Will and Luke are best buds and just followed each other around everywhere.

Emma and Lucy at the farm.  Speaking of following each other around, these two are inseparable.

And Ada, she was more in observing mode, not at all interested in getting squirted.

Granny the Great!

IMG_4695
We'll just get real with this picture for a moment and point out (as if it needs to be) that getting pictures taken is not Ada's favorite activity (she hasn't yet come to the realization that being a part of this family means getting your picture taken... a lot!) Miss little Ada thang just was not cooperating for the picture with GG (great granny).  Granny on the other hand always cooperates and doesn't seem to mind (in fact, even seems to enjoy), the great amount of energy my children bring.  She never ceases to amaze me.  We loved having you visit Granny- come again soon!

This trip was the first time Granny met the twins- she was a fan... a big fan.

Cousins

Nate's been on vacation and we made a trip down to Bellevue to see the fam. We got the cousins together which is always a fun adventure filled with chaos.  This is a good kind of chaos though- wish this kind of chaos could happen more often.  Love these kids (and my sisters).

One of the many projects happening right now. I told my niece I got angry and punched a hole in the wall. She believed me. She must think I'm pretty strong. Well, I am, but that's beside the point. This is going to be Lucy and Ada's new bedroom and Molly will take over their room. Can't wait for the extra space. We have the best landlords (Nate's parents- thank you).

Ok, one more cute pic and then I'll post some stuff on what we've been up to lately.  Oh wait, there actually is a slight update in this picture, Lucy got bangs (which I swore I would never do).  It was very impulsive on my part, but I actually really like them.
