Family togetherness

There has been so many things that I need to update on. Adrianna and I finally went on our first vacation to California. It was great. I loved the weather and the ocean. It was definitely somewhere I could live myself. I loved being with my Aunt Kristi and Uncle Lance again. I have missed them so much since they have moved. It was also nice to see my Uncle Dave, Aunt Vicki and Alex. I would love to go back so California someday soon again. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving there with wonderful food. We went to Disneyland also. It was interesting there but I would like to go back there again maybe when it isn't so busy and Adrianna gets a little older.
Just recently everyone came to Minnesota for my Uncle Luke's graduation from college. I stayed home with the kids and watched them so we wouldn't have to be chasing them around at the ceremony. I rather enjoyed watching them. They were a lot of fun. Uncle Dave, Aunt Vicki, and Alex stayed with us for a week. It was nice having them here and getting to see Alex so much. It gave Adrianna someone to play with all of the time even though she was often mean to him because she is so use to being the youngest child now. Well there is going to be a wake up call for her when the 2 new babies come this spring. I often sat and talked with Vicki while my Uncle Dave kept an eye on the kids and my dad did his bird watching.
I was sad when they had to go just like I was when we left California. I have this oddness about me now that I always want to still be with family. I miss all of them all of the time and I wish that we could see them more. Maybe it is because I have finally figured out that life is short and you never know what will happen. I hope that we all can get together soon again. I miss them and I am excited to have 2 more new cousins in the family.
