My sister's visit

This is my sister Sharyn. She came to visit me with her 8 year old son, Brock, for part of last week. We had so much fun!!! I wish she didn't have to leave or that we at least lived closer together! :( This picture makes me see how short I am and also how bad I need to do something with my hair (in my defense, however, I didn't do it that day), but any thoughts ???
While she was here, we took the kids out to take pictures!!!

This is one of my favorites. I've always wanted to take Lily's pictures with this jacket on BEcause it is the only color that matches her eyes. Whatever color it is... it's the color of her eyes!
The next 3 are a sequence. Gotta love the hair tossin'!






This is Brock. I'm so glad he got to come and we could get to know him better. He's such a great, fun, kind, athletic kid. He was so great with William and playing with the girls (he even played DRESS-UP with them!) :) I remember when he was 4, he raced us to church on his bike. His little brother, Zack, is the same way. He just turned 3 and he can snowski and rollerblade!







We went to Old Town Spring to take pics. We found this shirt on a sidewalk sale for $2.00. We went into pay.. it is a strange store with strange smells, an old man with a long white beard, a wizard outside, tarot readings, and strange books. very interesting.










This was right before they took off at the airport. Austin didn't see Lily down low so she got caught off.

Brock loved baby William. He was a big helper holding and feeding him. (Rachel, p.j.'s look familiar? they're so cute!)



While we were there, Lily found a cat that she quickly became friends with.
But, the highlight of the trip was chasing down this coyote for a picture! The kids thought it was great.
