We had to say goodbye to Uncle Greg and Auntie Shaina on Tuesday. Having so much family in town made the week such a whirlwind, and it was sad to say goodbye. At least we’ll see them again in November, so it wasn’t goodbye for too long.
On Sunday evening we had the whole family over to our house just to hang out. It was fun having both sides here at the same time. Elias and Simon had pretty much all of their closest family in the same yard. Elias had quite the spectator section at his baseball practice in the backyard.
Monday evening we got to see Uncle Greg and Auntie Shaina again for dinner at my parents’ house. My mom had also been hinting at a surprise “activity” for a few weeks, and we were all very curious as to what it could be. It turns out, my parents have been secretly converting all of our old family videos from VHS to DVD, and they presented us with our own copies of the first batch. We watched some highlights as a family and had a blast laughing and laughing at how weird we were as kids.
Tuesday morning we got to say goodbye at a nice brunch. It was fun to see them one last time before they left for the airport, but it was bittersweet.
We love you Uncle Greg and Auntie Shaina!
