my little fam went up to visit my brother and his fam in new jersey over memorial day weekend. we had a blast! my boys play so well with his boys, as they are only a few months apart in age and have the same ALL BOY interests, including running around nekkid and covered in dirt. my brother and sister in law’s home is absolute paradise for the kids, and i covet their lack of an HOA. it’s always a relaxing time catching up with these guys and my sweet fourteen year old niece. we spent our time playing with their chickens in their beautiful garden, grilling, indulging in traditional summer foods (potato salad, slaw, burgers/dogs, corn on the cob, watermelon), making smores, hanging out around the fire with our friend Katy and talking until way past all of our bedtimes. my heart is so full watching my kids bond with their cousins. the four of us can’t wait until our next visit with them!
