Family that Visited

I have far too many photos of the past two months to share them all on here, but I did want to highlight a few with our families that were here over the holidays.

My parents, Nonny and Granddaddy, had a wonderful visit here. Mom arrived on November 18, four days before Ellia was born, and Dad got here on Nov. 23. They left on December 5.

Eric, Grant's brother, was here for both Thanksgiving and Christmas! Obviously, the kids love to climb on him! He's such a good sport.

Grant's parents, Grandma and Grandpa, arrived on December 17 and left on January 2. We had a lovely time with them as well. We sure wish all the grandparents lived closer by. It's hard to only see them once or twice a year.

My beautiful younger sister, Anna, came for her first solo visit. It was awesome having her here...we have probably never had so much time together! I'm 11 years older than her, so for much of her life, the age difference has had a significant impact on how we relate to each other. Now, she's not the little kid anymore, but an amazing friend.

The kids all adored Aunt Anna and frequently ask when we get to see her again. She is sorely missed.
