Aunt Sara

About a week ago now our family was blessed by a special trip from Aunt Sara (Josh's sister) to our little home. It was a great time and of course went way to fast. The kids loved every minute of it from the anticipation of her coming to the moment we drive her back to the airport.
It is becoming a tradition to make a "countdown" for special events in our family. So we certainly had one this time. The first day and a half the kids had Aunt Sara all to themselves while Josh and I were able to attend a Love & Respect Marriage video conference.
Side note: this conference was sooo good and if you live in the bay area they are doing a live conference in SF (Castro Valley) on February 3-4 (loveandrespect.com). It very affordable and is worth every penny at any stage of marriage!!!! So there is my plug and I really mean it:)
Thank you Aunt Sara!
It was so wonderful to have her here for almost a week of sunshine. We took a huge walk to the spit, went to the Discovery Museum, went to Half Day Cafe for breakfast, shopped Trader's and Safeway in one morning with both kids and no meltdown's:), read TONS of books, and played and played. I don't know if the kids were more spoiled having so much extra attention or if I was just having a sweet sister to help with the kids and do stuff with.
One of my favs was Simeon bonding with his Aunt and yelling Sarra, Sarra, just to get her attention and then say, HI! And Hallel making up a song and singing SAN FRANSISCO on the way to the airport for Sara.
The best news is that we will see her and more family in less than a month!!!
