Family. . .

This weekend Michael's Dad and siblings from Hawaii (his dad is doing his residency as a doctor on the military base) came to visit. Michael and I haven't seen the kids since we got married in Hawaii, over 3 1/2 years ago. Holli and Manty haven't seen the kids since they got married in March of 2005.
Michael has 1 full sibling (older sister Holli) and 6, 1/2 siblings (Allison & Jesse - here in SLC and Abbi, Alyssa, Evan and Ethan - from Hawaii (however, they did just move to Vegas with their mom -We are so happy to finally have them pretty close!)) It was so great to get to spend time with them all. It was so funny, Michael just kept on looking at them in shock, at how grown up they are! We are so lucky to have so many siblings, both of ours combined! We sure do love every single one of them!
It really was wonderful to spend the weekend with them, we just wished that it could have been for at least a little bit longer.

First comment AGAIN!!! Jackpot! That is so nice they were able to visit! I'd die if some of our family moved in different places like Vegas or Hawaii, it'd be horrible!
You're the queen of blogging, way to be! :)

It's always so nice to family around for the holidays. Glad they made it from HI.
