Back together again…

Rich’s parents came home from their mission on Friday afternoon, and by Monday THE WHOLE FAMILY…EVERYONE….met up in California. It’s really rare when every member of their family (all 9 kids, spouses and children) can get together. Because one brother is in the Navy, and a handful are still in college etc. We had such a good time. It’s been fun being one of the oldest in this family, to watch the younger siblings get married and start families of their own.

We stayed at the Newport Marriott Villas…it’s gorgeous there! Our villa overlooked the Ocean. It was perfect!

Bennett’s like his momma…. he was hoping for warm tropical water. That’s not what we got!

These two…such cute cousins. I have a feeling in a couple of months when Bennett has teeth this won’t be so fun anymore.
