It has been a crazy couple of weeks. Like I said my sister's been in town and pretty much life shuts down. I'm never home and when I am I just want to get out because the stuff that needs to get done just overwhelms me. I have piles of laundry to do, overall cleaning of my house, bills to pay, etc...not to mention all the stuff I want to do that doesn't get done like blogging and/or reading. Despite all that I walk away from I really enjoy getting away from my normal routine and taking this break. It's something I look forward to every summer.
One thing I don't want to forget during this little break and hopefully they won't either is just how much Tess and Alan enjoyed each other. Always looking for the other and wanting to do what the other is doing. They play so good together and I'm sad for them to have to part ways. It's depressing to have family living so far away.
So although it's a crazy couple of weeks, I really wouldn't have it any other way.

Glad you are back. SOunds like a crazy busy couple of weeks. How fun to have your sister around for that long. And that photo is painfully cute!! What a pair.
Oh that is cute. My sister is coming back as yours is going and I experience the same feelings- minus the kid interactions. Glad to have you back. It was a tease to see you at the party then to not hear from you for so long :)
Hi. I'm glad you are back too. (Even though we don't know each other and I feel like a total stalker) But I enjoy your blog and I identify with you in so many ways. Thanks for posting your life over the web:)
It must be so fun to have a 2 week vacation in your own state and town. I know it's sad that you and Jeni don't live close to each other, but these vacation times are wonderful for the kids and will carry them through their lives together. If only you could get Jeni to blog, then you'd be that much more connected.
two of my sisters and one of my brothers are coming to visit me this next week. Though they only live a couple of hours away, I don't get to visit with them nearly enough and am so looking forward to their visit.
I'm glad you're back!
I've missed you! I'm glad you are enjoying your sister's visit. We live far from all our family, and it stinks. We have family coming to visit in a week and a half, and my girls can't wait for cousin time!
Amy, I was just about to email you. I knew something wonderful must have been going on. What a sweet sweet photograph of the cousins. What a handsome kid, too.
Welcome back, we all understand summer busy!
There is just something about cousins, isn't there? (and sisters, of course!)
just stopping by to say hello! hope you are enjoying your crazy weeks. (thinking your scrapbook layouts are amazing!)
I just did a post on the same feeling of having so much catching up to do. Glad even you who seems to have it all together has those times too. Sisters are the BEST, and they were the best thing about my week in Utah!
I'm anxious for your crazy weeks to settle because I'm missing your posts!
Amy, the picture of them is so sweet! I love that you have had time together. I have the fondest cousin memories and I'm sure your kids will too!
you definitely got it with those two. it's a great one!
