I have a reason for not posting about our trip yet - there's a new baby in our family! My niece, Lauren, had a baby girl last month. I was finally able to make a trip to Fresno to meet her and I'm so in love! Olive Jae is just a darling little bundle.
We had a mini reunion on Tuesday night. My brother, Rick, is a fabulous great uncle!
My sister, "Mimi" Kim. If you look closely you will see braces on both her arms. Kim took a tumble a few weeks ago and broke her right wrist, broke her right elbow, and sprained her left wrist! I drove her to her followup appointment on Wednesday. X-rays show that she is healing, it's just going to take time.
The other star of the show, of course, is Olive's big brother Bo. He will be in four in February and he kept us entertained all evening.
I brought several gifts, my favorite is this book - "A is for Adobo." With his blonde hair and blue eyes you wouldn't guess that Bo is one fourth Filipino, but he is. This is an alphabet book with Filipino words and it is adorable!
He loves Olive and is so sweet with her!

I found this darling handmade duck at a produce stand in Cookeville.
Bo had one request at the end of the evening - a little dance party, with head gear required!
After Kim's appointment on Wednesday, we got a little more time with Lauren and Olive while Bo was at preschool. I think I just held her and stared in awe for about an hour!!
Bo came home just before I left. He and Mimi had a drawing party. It was so fun to see how creative he is!
I'm so thankful for my family!!
