Yes, the kids have had the opportunity to see another set of cousins recently! Just after Christmas, my sister Bonnie and her partner Nancy came to visit us with their two kids, Sammy and Phoebe. They live in the sunny south, and made the trip north during December for the primary purpose of seeing SNOW. You know, the thrill of snowmen and snow angels, sledding, snowball fights, catching snowflakes on your tongue. Their kids had never seen snow before (had never been to our state in the winter since they were born), and this was to be the magical trip for them. Unfortunately, although we saw lots of snow in November and early December, it started to melt just before Christmas and a few slushy piles of dirty snow were all that was left when they got here. How disappointing for them not to see the white stuff! Fortunately, the visit was great and my family had a good time getting together, despite the lack of snow. We love to spend time with their family - we miss them a lot!

Uncle Mark tickles Phoebe... what a giggly girl!
Grampa got in on the action with all four kids... no wonder he's trying to shush them!
