The cousins are coming!

The last week in August was one of our favorite weeks of the summer! Brian's oldest brother, Jim, and his wife Kristy and their two kids Aidan and Kieran came here spent the week. Aidan is 4 and Kieran is just a few months older than Oak. We had been talking about them coming for so long and Oak just couldn't wait to see them! All he really knew was that Aidan was the "big one" and Kieran was the "little one."

We were so excited to see them because the boys haven't gotten to "play" together since Oak was six months old. We always loving seeing Jim and Kristy too!

I was very anxious to see how the boys would play together! It was amazing to me how well they played. I think that God created us so uniquely and ingrained in us something that allows us to really understand family. It was like they knew each other even though we don't get to see them too often.

We did so many fun things with them, but my favorite was just being here at the house with them and watching them interact with one another. Oak spent the next few weeks pretending he was Aidan and that I was Kieran. It was super cute.

It wasn't just a great visit for Oak and the boys, but we had such a great visit with Jim and Kristy and love hanging out with them. We really can't wait till the next time they get to come here or we can make it there! (hopefully Christmas)
