As most of you who are reading this know that I was home for 10 days, so for you it is just news to see the pics finally! I had a great time seeing and spending time with my family. My older sister had her baby in April so I was super excited to meet my new niece for the first time. I think I may have become a baby hog for the week hehe!!! Another special celebration was my grandparent's 60th wedding anniversary party. There I was able to see family who I haven't seen since I was married almost three years ago or before! If those two special events weren't enough to satisfy me as an added bonus my sister and I made a meal for my parents to celebrate their 30th wedding anniversary, one of my sisters turned 11, and my niece turned 4...so needless to say I ate a lot of cake and ice cream. Since I am so far from home I miss the little experiences I miss so I enjoyed being able to see my sister perform at her "Fiddle Camp" concert. She learned the basics of the violin and learned a few songs. It was bittersweet to come home because unfortunately my husband wasn't able to go with me due to his newish job and I wanted to stay because as you all can imagine I miss home and my family.
So I do not want to make this a big photo album but there are so many so I will try to separate them off. I would do them gradually but now that I am working overtime I do not have a lot of extra time :s.
To begin, we will start with my sister's birthday the big 11! because
that is what happened first :) and by the way I made the giraffe cake
(her favorite animal :) ) and to finish off this post is her Fiddle Concert!
