Highlights from 2013!

In January, Lesha, Natasha and I with ALL of our kids met up in Bellevue.

It was a weekend of loudness, FUN, Chuck E Cheese, Red Robin and a priceline hotel! 

A highlight for the cousins for sure!! 

Check out the spiral staircase in Lesha's hotel room! :) 

I am so very thankful for my sisters, for all of my siblings! 

And these cousins making memories --it's pretty great.
