Precious Moments

When you live the life that we do, moments with family become incredibly precious. We are blessed to have my sister and her family as well as my brother and his wife living here in SE Asia so our paths sometimes intersect. On our way to our meetings in Bali, we ended up with a layover in their city so we extended for a few days.
This shot was taken as we boarded the plane in our little provincial town. I love the 2 volcanoes in the background.
One of the best things about this trip was FINALLY getting to meet our new niece/cousin. This is little miss Zoe, and she is absolutely adorable - and such a happy baby.
Ben and Gabby are actually only 3 wks apart in age, but we have always gotten a kick out of the difference in their sizes.
Zach is great with babies, and he had a blast getting to know Zoe. Mikayla got lots of baby practice too and loved every minute of it.

Was so good to watch the cousins together again.
Love this smile

The kids worked together to put on a little show for all the adults. This shot is of Ben peeping around the corner to the "stage" (driveway).
Taking a bow after the elaborate show, complete with costumes. We decided Mikayla was going for a 20's era theme.

Living apart from family does make for such precious moments when you get to see them again. How cool that your siblings live so close! Y'all have some adorable kids. I especially like the last picture. Thanks for sharing!

I loved all of these pics! Brought tears to my eyes remembering the precious days my kids had with my sister's kids. So glad you guys were able to spend time with them. Times like that are priceless.
