Feel the love...

Of family! My brother, Tanner, came up to visit this weekend so we took the opportunity to get some pictures taken of all of us on Saturday.

Also featuring Nathan's toothless smile:


Mom and her two kids:


Mom and Dan:


I don't think he's capable of taking a serious picture.


Ok, maybe he is.




Gotta have one of these! Clint takes the cake with the ugliest goofy face award! Seriously, some of his expressions trigger my gag reflex. Love you babe!


My totally GQ brother! He's single, ladies!

Bittersweet.

A few weeks ago, something happened that happens about as often as politicians follow through with their promises: my entire family (mostly; my brother and two of my cousins were unable to attend), extended and all, got together for, well, a get-together! It was really fun! I say it was bittersweet because while it was great to visit with everyone, it was probably the last time that we'll all be together while my great-grandma is alive. :(

Grandma Kosa is sitting on the left, and Grandma Jayne is seated on the right.
Standing from left to right (kind of) is Dad and Landon, Bonnie, brother Austin, sister Brianna, me, Clint, Nathan, Uncle Scott, cousin Seth, cousin Mallory, Aunt Tiffany, cousin Keira, Uncle Mark, and Aunt Denise.
