Independence Day was one of my favorite days this year. Our awesome cousins from Georgia dropped in for the day! Keeley is a big girl like me, she's lost 2 teeth already. Brady lived up to his reputation as The Chosen One: sweet, easy going, and hilariously demanding.
Their fun, spontaneous parents with flexible summer schedules grabbed a last minute deal for the week in Orlando. Since our parents were stuck at work all week, they made the trek in their party van to come see us.
We had the best time doing simple everyday things that we wish we could do with them all the time. Like, changing clothes a hundred times, lining up every single car and tractor in the house, eating popsicles and watermelon, walking to the neighborhood playground to play in dirt, and cooling off in the sprinklers during Aunt Jenny's photo shoot.
We. Love. These. People.
Aunt Jenny and Mom had fun planning our girls trip to Camp Georgia while Uncle Robert and Dad watched the World Cup and grilled burgers.
I wish we could do this every Friday.
There are some people in this world that you will always feel close to, even if you live far away and only get to see them twice a year.
And there are some moments that will always bring a sentimental tear to your eye... Like when Brady had an epiphany at dinner and kept shouting "I LIKE CHEESE PUFFS!".
