A Nor Cal Weekend

This past weekend we had the chance to go to Nor Cal for my brother Rob's wedding. He married Jen in an outdoor ceremony with a beautiful woodsy backdrop. So pretty. We are so happy for Rob and Jen and feel like Rob definitely couldn't have found a better girl! Jen is awesome, and we wish the two of them the best!

Even though it was a quick trip, we still had time to enjoy my parents' rural property and play with cousins. It was darling to see Abby and Will be so loving towards their littler cousins. (Abby is the oldest of the six cousins with four of the six age two and under!) They also enjoyed spending time with their two older cousins at the wedding.

It was great to spend time with my family. I appreciate them. I appreciate how my mom tries to make everyone happy. I always look forward to the bag of Lindt candy, home decor magazines, and bottled water she leaves on our nightstands. I love how my mom and dad play with my kids and how my dad stayed up late watching movies with them in the motorhome this trip. I also love how Frank and Rob make me laugh all the time and love me even though I wasn't the best big sister growing up. I'm thankful to Uncle John and Johnnie for their generosity and love. I appreciate Myrissa and the time she spends with Abby and Will. I enjoy Josh's sweet spirit and smile. I definitely miss my family already and am looking forward to seeing them again.
