Family Visit

My parents, brothers, and niece surprised me for my birthday with a visit from Arizona. It was so good to see them, and their stay was much too short. Kara and her cousin Kendra (one year older than her) were inseparable. We all had a good time.

Joshua used a fork to eat his tortilla chips.


Sometimes he used two forks.
