Our weekend company...

We had a fun filled weekend with late nights and lots of good cherished memories with family from Nebraska and Ohio!!!

The big thing that happened over the weekend was that we added to our family.

We had bought a puppy from some friends back home in Nebraska. My Uncle & Aunt agreed to bring her out when they come. The kids have fallen in love with her and so have Jeremy and I =)

Rylin even liked her.The kiddos loved having my cousin Lexi around.Chloe snuggling with her great uncle DelLexi, Chloe, Rylin, Seth

Sunday lunch..
On Monday Morning we said a sad good bye to Lonnie's and Kevin's...

Then we spent the day with Deltons...

I like when they don't all leave on the same day because it is not such a sad day for me this way. You would think after 13 years of living away it would not be so hard, but I still struggle with it.

I enjoy family visits so much, it just always takes a couple of days to get back into a routine after they are gone.

One last hug...

On Tuesday after they left, the house was so quiet the kids and I just looked at each other not sure what to do. Thanks Kevin's, Lonnie's and Delton's for coming out and spending the 4th with us.

We treasured every moment.
