More time with these crazy kids

I wish we were able to spend more time with this family and their cutie-patootie kids.  But it was awesome to be able to get to hang out with them for the impromptu little visit last week... and to be able to play the aunt that pinches cute nephew cheeks on my birthday.

How can you not pinch these cheeks!?

It is kind of weird to be the type of family that is spread out across states.  It is sometimes a little hard that I won't easily be part of my nephews' birthday parties or able to drop off a batch of cookies for my brother or sisters.  Yeah, that part is kind of lame about the whole spread out family thing.  It makes even short little visits that much more awesome.
