First, in late February, Mormor came to visit. We forgot to take a group picture, but this one sums up the visit: Ria attached herself to Mormor and pretty much didn't let go!
Then Eva and I visited Morfar in Chicago for a few days in early March:
Then Alastair, Bev, and cousin Rowan visited later in March:
Then Grandmother was here in early April:
School ended in early June, and 2 days later Iain lost his first baby tooth:
Then in mid/late June, Grandpa John and Julia were here:
Then in early July, my cousin Per, his wife Lena, and their kids Klara and Johan came to visit from Sweden:
Any mention of their visit is incomplete without a reference to how Ria attached herself to Klara for the whole visit. When Ria finally realized that they had left, she cried for 45 minutes for her lost Klara.
A few days later, Yassal, and her girls Nabila and Yasmin stopped by (visiting from Sweden) for a playdate at Rachel's and Josephine's place. (Well, Sven's place too, but he was at work ;-).
And, finally, Jo handed down to Ria some essential fairy gear, and we now have "Fairy Girl", rather than Ria, some days:
A million fabulous pictures aren't here, but at least I'm up to date before our trip east next week!
