A few weeks ago at Ellie’s birthday party, Nathan’s grandma told us that his cousins from California were coming to visit her…after some gracious people at work helped me rearrange my schedule for that weekend, we headed south to Indianola.

We hadn’t seen Matt and Leah in 3 1/2 years, so needless to say, they hadn’t met our children, and we hadn’t seen their youngest since she was 2 months old.

What a time the kids had! They were running and laughing, and playing games with each other…it was awesome. I’m sure Grandma was happy for all the company, but also sure her neighbors were happy once we all left!
