They're Here...

So, after over five years my sister, her husband and girls are home for a visit. I was so excited to find out they were coming, I didn't think the day was ever going to get here. But it did and it was sweet. I just started crying when I saw her and ran to give the biggest hug ever. I hadn't seen my nieces since they were two and they are now 7 years old. I couldn't believe how big they were and so beautiful.
We had a BBQ at my mom's their first night home. That was a first in itself. My mom was very emotional. She has never had both her girls and all her grand kids together in the same place. It was awesome.
Here is Luke, Ava, Colin, Madison and Mackenzie at the kids table outside. All the adults were inside eating dinner. We could all hear the chatter, giggles and laughter coming from outside. It was sweet music to my ears.

Kimberly and I catching up. What fun!!

Kimberly and Ava, Craig and Madison and our mom. They were watching a jet fly by. It was a great night and many more to come during their stay. We are planning a party for the girls 7th birthday. It will be at our house. We have never shared a birthday with them, we can't wait..it should be a lot of fun.

LOVE THESE GIRLS!!! I'm so happy that you are all together again at last! Sounds like you're having the time of your life and enjoying every last minute. Give Kimmy a big hug from me and tell her I'm going through my Kimmy withdrawls. I haven't chatted with her on the phone in quite a while and I miss her... and you too Kristin! You both look AMAZING! Lots of love to you all. Tell your mom hi and that I love her too. P.S. Your blog is SO DANG CUTE! XOXO
