Back to Our Roots...

We recently had the chance to drive down to SV and visit with family for the week...While we were there the kids had the chance to play with their cousins, the V girls and Miss B...we also got to meet the newest addition to the ever growing Miles clan, little mr. Linkin...I love visiting the family...Our kids have the best grandparents ever...G&G Dubois rotated the kids over the weekend and spoiled them by taking them out to eat and bought them new toys and new clothes and G&G Miles took them along with the V girls to see the tide pools and out for lunch...Josh got to hang out with his bros and I got to visit with my parents in the evening after work...Steph, April and I went to the book release party of Breaking Dawn...Poor Ape couldn't make it til the end but was able to get dessert at least...She then had her baby two days later (as planned)...I was able to visit with my high school friend Sarah who has a little girl Lexi's age...The night before we left we went to dinner with Jared and Shannon, Jase and Steph and Jesse to Musashi...I love visiting with my sister in laws they truly feel like my sisters and I hope they feel the same way...Thanks for making me,Josh and our kids always feel so welcome when we visit...See you all in December...


"Say Click, Take a Pic"

Whenever I upload my pics to the PC I always find these random shots apparently taken by the other photographers in the house, it cracks me up...Lexi walked in here a minute ago and says, "hey that's me watching Wonderpets" Wow...
