Long overdue

It had been almost 9 months since I had seen my sister.  She combined an airport visit with a 2 1/2 day visit.  Yeah!  We had a nice chance to catch up and spend some fun time together--we even got to go thrift shopping! 

The kiddos had grown up even more.  A is a young man now, F was the greatest surprise--also turning into a young man, E is ever the same mature, laid- back young lady, and J has also grown not only in inches, but also in maturity.

All loved on the newest cousin and played with E and D. 

 

The second day we even got to the park and enjoyed the absolutely gorgeous weather!

 

 

 

I got to experiment with settings on my new camera--definitely a learning curve.
