Visit with my nieces and nephews...

Post by bjornolf » July 26th, 2010, 10:23 pm

So, I told you guys about meeting my brother for the first time last year. A few weeks ago, he brought his wife and six kids up for a visit at our place for a weekend. It was AMAZING! We all had a wonderful time. My kids are still asking when their cousins are coming back. They miss them already. Everyone had a great time, and it was so wonderful meeting my nieces and nephews and SIL for the first time ever. Here are a few pictures:

A shot of, unfortunately, the back of the rest of them, Noah, DJ, Justine, and Robyn.

We had such a great time. We spent some time at the pool. We set off some post 4th fireworks. We went to the National Mall and spent a day in the American History Museum. Played some Xbox 360 and PS3 with my nephews. Had a movie night at my friend's house with my bro and the two oldest. It was awesome. We can't wait to see them again. It really feels like we're bonding as a family. It's pretty amazing.

I realized I didn't get a single good one of my SIL, so here's a picture of her from her facebook page:
