Visits from Antie, Uncie and Aunt Rose ("She's my friend!")

Last weekend we finally got to see Antie and Uncie! Oh, how we have missed them. It has been way too long even though we use video and phone calls to stay in touch. We spent part of each day with them, Nana, Papa, Uncle Todd, Aunt Shelly, Jordan and Dylan. Todd enjoyed his specially made birthday dinner made by Daddy along with everyone else. Samantha impressed everyone with her chess skills and picked up some pointers from Uncle Todd. Sofia's affections were much appreciated by Antie and Uncie.



Aunt Rose came into town this weekend. When we were discussing it with the girls, Sofia said, "She's my friend!". I don't know where it came from, but Sofia repeated it multiple times. While we didn't get enough time with Aunt Rose, it was a relatively calm and pleasant visit. She is such a sweet lady and very kind. The girls were a bit confused because her name since Rose is a common in our family.



After we said goodbye to Aunt Rose, Sam spent the afternoon with Grammy. It was impromptu, but they both enjoyed themselves. They took a walk, played on the computer and simply hung out. I'm glad that they have that time!
