Who's Coming to Town?

Just about more exciting than Santa Claus coming soon was this past weekend when Tucker's sis Maren and her fam came to visit from Utah! She and Greg brought their three kids and our girls were thrilled to spend a weekend with their cousins! We had a really fun few days!


**************************


I can never get enough of these two. Peyton and Brock are 2 months apart and really could be twins. Brock was inspiring Pey to walk more, too.




Poor Greg thought he was on vacation. But no! We put him to work putting up some fans and a light fixture for us. He is so great at stuff like that! Thanks Greg!!!




Greg, installing what we've now named "Cheryl" due to her "figure"




Peyton insisted on joining in the work


Maren and Tucker - sweet siblings




Sweet siblings who like to wrestle rough!




We even got to talk to Uncle Derek in China over the computer (for free! with Skype.com). Can you see him on the computer?




Much to our surprise, the kids were "practicing" to put on a show for us - in the garage. They got out all of my Harmony stuff and really went all out.




Taylor and Jordyn singing away (they are 18 months apart)





And finally it was show time! They set up the chairs and had it all ready for the "audience".




And last, but DEFINITELY not least. I *think* I can almost say that Pey is walking. I hate to say it until she is completely doing it 100%. But she is doing it a LOT more than ever before and she even stands up in the middle of the room and starts walking. Hooray! Almost 14 months old. She's in between Jordyn (was 17 months) and Lexi (was 12 months). Good job Pey!



Thanks Maren and Greg for the fun times and great Christmas visit!

That seriously looks like a blast! I remember as a kid practicing for our little "shows" with my cousins and those are some of the funnest memories I have. Your kids will have such a great collection of memories with their cousins! And honestly, how is it possible for those two babies to look soooo much alike?! I am amazed!

That really is shocking how much the kids look alike. The babies look like twins and Jordyn and Taylor look a lot alike lately too! Maybe you and Greg are long lost siblings?
