Family

Matt and I feel so privileged to live within 2 hours (or so) of most of our family. We were just talking the other night about how sometimes we wish it were like the olden days when family all lived in the same town and farmed/worked together. Matt, of course, being from Oklahoma, always dreams about his roots back in the country. =) He doesn't like living in crowded Anne Arundel County, and would much prefer a huge piece of land away from everything! Myself, being an extrovert and all... wouldn't mind that as long as my family lived on the surrounding land! I need people to hang out with and I would miss my family way too much!!!
Anyway, that tangent was just to say that we've had a great summer so far with family! We've seen the PA family at least once a month... if not every other week since spring. It's been so great for Jake and Hailey to spend time with cousins in PA and MD. I hope they are as close with their cousins as I am with mine.. especially my nessa bella! =) Love you my loe! =) Here are a few pictures from our time at the beach with aunt heather, then our time over Aunt Jen's yesterday. My camera has been dead, and I lost the charger until yesterday... so I've been slacking on the photos! =) Enjoy....
