Family fun
Our brother and sister-in-law Jonathan and Beka Hastings have been visiting us. Alas, their time with us is near an end, as they live far away.
Over the past few weeks, we've gone to the zoo (for the first time for all kids), visited the aquarium, celebrated Christmas, took spontaneous trips to McDonald's (using all of the high chairs in the restaurant for our combined six kids four and under), and had many other adventures. We had decided that for Christmas we would give each other time, and try to create beautiful memories for our children as they began to know each other. It was a precious time for all of us, and I hope that we continue it as a tradition, giving each other memories and time.
So thankful that our children are developing relationships with their cousins, and for the blessings of family

I know Jonathan and Beka Hastings too! :) I have known, Jonathan Hastings ALL his life. He grew up playing with my kids and we still get together with the parents of both Jonathan and Beka Hastings. I'm glad all the kids could play together at the zoo. It sounded like ya'll had a good time.

Your families are beautiful! What a great time you must have had. And I bet your parents are thrilled with all the babies!

You must be proud of the kids. It looks like a lot of fun to take them to first time experiences.

Isn't it great to have fun at the zoo, especially when panda bears are about. Family fun is what it is all about, and when the weather is perfect why not invite others to participate with you. Let's hope that this winter will give us lots more sunny days so that we can go too!

It's been so much fun to have all six grandchildren together! We look forward to many more adventures!
