I don't believe that my brother, Ryan, and his family have had very much face time on my blog. Most likely due to the fact that they live approximately 300 miles away :(. So today, I am happy to introduce Ryan, Ashley, Cate, Cara and Claire.
We had an amazing time this weekend visiting with them in San Antonio. I absolutely HATE that they are so far away. Yes, I know that hate is a strong word, but in this case it is totally appropriate. It took about 30 minutes or so for the little girls to determine that we were not total strangers and then all was well. Intense play time with cousins continued for the entire 60 hours or so we were there....they had so much fun! And, I loved getting to visit with my brother and sis-in-law and love on my nieces!
It was a very relaxing weekend, but we managed to throw in a few activities. We had a birthday party for Chris, we went to the Alamo, we attended a Southwest Dragons basketball game (Ryan is the coach) and we ate, lots :)!
Recapping the events in pictures and video....

Uncle Chris snuggling with Claire (when we visited two years ago, she was a newborn, and he held her the WHOLE time)
Cate and Anna (aren't they beautiful?)
Me and my Cara (it was love at first sight)
And, finally, for your viewing pleasure....a performance by Cate and Anna. They are absolutely wonderfully cute :) If you make it to the end of the video you will be rewarded with a cute, totally unprompted ;) word from Cara.Blessing on you and your family this Thanksgiving,

oh, that was sooo great! I teared up just watching that video. We really miss you guys! Thanks so much for driving the 300 miles it takes to get here. We can't wait to see you at Christmas. P.S. I hope that you don't mind, but I was going to put a link on my blog of what you wrote since my camera was caput. Love you!
