Us Cousins

This past weekend we got together with my extended family to celebrate my aunt's 50th birthday. My cousins, Amanda, Michael, Kory and Aaliyah, were in town from NC. Now that all of us are grown up it's rare that we all get to spend time together, something I think we all appreciated when we were kids. I know I love spending time with my immediate and extended family.

It was a great weekend for Jordan and I to finally spend some time together. We hadn't been able to have a full, normal day together in over a month, so this weekend was much needed. Hopefully we'll be having much more of those through the rest of alpha, to help survive during the week.
