Sweet Sixteen

My little family is off to Virginia visiting my sisters' families, as today is my twin niece and nephew's 16th birthday. I was seven when Jordan and Jane were born and remember that I was so excited...I took cupcakes to my first grade class to celebrate the new fact that I am an aunt. The last time I saw the twins and their little sister Maura they were only 11, so I wonder, who are these new 16 year olds? I will expect a full report from mum and dad and Taylor when they return to Iowa. And hopefully I can catch up with J + J before they leave their teen years behind (and are too old to have a doting aunt)! I miss those kids a lot. From afar, Happy Birthday my lovelies.

Wow, time flies doesn't it?! Happy birthday to your niece and nephew - and safe travels to the rest of the Evans crew.

I hope you and Nathan had a nice Thanksgiving weekend away.

I'm counting down the days till you're in Iowa!!!

Love and miss you both
xoxo
