It's been a while since I put up a post, but life has been crazy. We had the big family get together over the last couple of weeks. It was great!!! I had so much fun with all of my family. We did get a family picture done and I think that went really well. My good friend Joslyn took the pictures and she did great! We had them done up at the State Capitol. That is a great place for big groups. The kids could run wild and it hardly matters, because it's so big. The babies also had a big milestone... 6 months old!!! But more on that later... Back to the family. 
It was pretty insane everyday up at my parents house. But it was really fun. My mom gave everyone cute Valentines and the kids went crazy with the candy and play dough.
The cousins all had a great time playing together. It was so fun! And the kids all say the funniest things.
Jocelyn would come up to me and just love on Cooper and Chase and just kept saying"I love babies!" She was so sweet. And Hans had us laughing when he said to my mom " I can't tell which baby is which, because they're the same size and have the same costume on." It was so cute. Then later he came over and said "Can I pet your baby?" He is really funny.
All of the cousins loved holding the babies and they adored all of the attention.
This same week Troy's Mom and Bill came for a last minute visit. Troy's great Aunt Cora passed away and they came for the funeral. Troy's Grandma Norr also came up for the funeral and stopped by to see the babies. This was her first time to see them. It was really nice.
Family is great! I'm so glad we were able to have time all together! I love my family and I'm so grateful for each one of them. I'm sure we're all completely exhausted! I know I am. But it was all worth it! I loved being together. My Dad has a new joke he stole from my brother-in-law Ryan's Dad. "I've seen the lights of Paris. I've seen the lights of Rome. But the ones I like to see the most are the taillights of my children/grandchildren going home!" Of course he's kidding! I already miss everyone and I can't wait for the ones who are away to come back for good! Hopefully that will happen soon!

I LOVE the pictures! They tell it all. What a fabulous reunion! We had the best time. I can't believe it's already come and gone. I'm a little depressed about that.
Your family picture is the best! Tell Joslyn thanks again. She did a great job.
Missing you all,
Annisha
Kim,
I too am a little depressed that it's over. We had such a great time. The pictures are great. I loved all the cousins playing together, it makes me the happiest. I guess we are back to real life for awhile but we always have blogging. I love you(and you too Annisha!), I miss you guys(and everyone else), see you online! Love, Mattie
