Family Time Part II

Family is absolutely a big reason why we moved back to Maine.  Not just mine, but Tim's as well.  We're a bit closer to everyone!  I have the privilege of having lots of aunts, uncles, and cousins. Lots of them. Fortunately, most of us live in Maine or pretty darn close.  One set of aunts and uncles live in Wisconsin and one cousin lives in Colorado.  You can imagine the spectacle when someone makes a trip home.  This week Cousin Kristie flew home for her future niece's baby shower/friend's wedding and boy did we celebrate!  We hosted a middle of the week BYOS (bring your own sandwich) gathering and really, really enjoyed everyone's company.  Out of 14 cousins half of us were there with our significant others and kids.  A last minute decision turned out to be a fantastic event.  Thanks, Kristie for coming home and sharing one of your precious nights with us!  Love you!!  Safe travels back to the West Coast!

Excuse Abby's  "are you kidding me" look

Stay tuned for another important event....My sister in law has turned "30" (aka 40) and we are celebrating with dinner sans kids (woo hoo!) in a Boston area restaurant!
