Long Time, No See

Here we are with August coming to a close, and I am finally just blogging about the beginning of August. It's been one of those months, you know.

Jared's brother, Mitch, and Jared's Aunt Julie both came to ML for a visit. It was really fun to see them both. Mitch had just gotten back from a 3 month vay-cay in Asia. Julie is from Minnesota and Jared hadn't seen her since 1992. Crazy, huh!

We just pretty much hung out all weekend long. We ate food literally 24/7. I imagine Julie thinks that all we do is eat. We're hungry, we eat. We're bored, we eat. Fun family activity, we eat. We want to get out of the house, we eat. Well, I guess we didn't eat food ALL weekend long. We managed to watch Toddlers & Tiaras and other TV fare and played a rousing game of 3-round Celebrity. {"TEARS..." Jared looking around expectantly...}

Here's a photo of Julie with Carson & Kaiya:


Kaiya and Mitch--She doesn't see him to often but LOVES him. She's always all over him.


Here I'm trying to get a cute pic with the 3 kids and Mitch. Chloe is clearly not cooperating. This is the story of my life. Sometimes a picture is really worth 1000 words.



Gotta love blanket forts!


These are some random pictures of everyone playing with Angie's wigs...


Carson didn't want me to post this. Oops, my bad!


Of course, Kaiya had to pick pink!

It was a wonderful weekend and we really hope we get the opportunity to see both Mitch and Julie again soon!
