Missing the Relatives

The "relatives" left us with tears in our eyes and many warm memories in our hearts as they roared away in their super-awesome truck on Thursday about noon. Here are just a few of the warm memories...



Becca and Caroline were practically inseparable. John enjoyed being near the baby too... :D



Side note: Becca finally got to make cinnamon rolls. They were AWESOME and were consumed in record time. Like, before they even got a chance to be an evening snack after we had them for breakfast.

Michael made himself handy right away by fixing the kitchen light we had not had a chance to fix.

And there was light!! Thank you again, Michael! You are the best big brother ever, and not just because you fixed my kitchen light...

Like I said about Becca and John... Rosie was usually nearby as well, just not in this picture.

Sarah dressing the Dolly for a walk. I love the eyes in the picture, she is so alert!

One nice thing about having company is getting to stay up late, get up late, and have big leisurely breakfasts...

Caroline is introduced to the woodstove. I think she was pleased.

We also have been having a sickness going around (still going around, poor Leah has it now) and this was John being a nurse for Becca. He was an excellent nurse as you can see. Here he is demonstrating how he gives his patients hand massages.

It was wonderful to have you, Michael, Sarah, and Caroline! Y'all come back soon now, ya hear! We love you!!
