The girls had an amazing time hanging out with all their cousins. They were so hyped up that they ate way too much junk food, slept very little, had only 1 vomit incident, and laughed louder than I've heard in a very long time. This weekend was JUST what they needed to keep them going for these last few weeks without their daddy.
We took tons of photos this weekend, my favorite being the first cousins with all their children and our grandfather photo. It was a special time to have us all together again... I can't remember the last time we were or will be again (with 2 of us living outside the U.S.).
There's so much to do this week before we go back to India on Thursday.... from picking up all the things Matt had "fixed" while on this trip, to buying food for our freezer, sending out more thank you notes (yeah... I'm totally behind on them - please forgive me... they're eventually coming!), packing, and of course my procedure tomorrow. A heck of a lot to do in a short amount of time.
So off I go. Wish me luck that we get it all accomplished before Thursday. With any amount of sanity left intact...

I'm so glad you were able to squeeze in the Children's museum--you know how much we love it there.
You certainly know how to make the most of your time.
What fun times! Your family is just so gorgeous!! I assume that is a photo of you, your parents and brothers. How neat to see them all before you head back to India. I am sending many prayers and well wishes your way as you travel with three small kids internationally, WOW!!!
