June 21 - Auntie Hannah's Here!

Now, I have some catching-up to do! Hannah came, we went home to the US for a visit, and now we're back in Ireland. I didn't put up any blogs while Hannah was here since we were busy (and sorting through pictures took a long time in itself since the girl takes more pictures than I do!). And I didn't put any up while we were home since the time was precious and was spent visiting family and friends! So, rewind a few weeks...

...The boys made a chain to count down the days to Auntie Hannah's arrival. Though it looks pink, it's actually red that Aaron picked; and Silas finally picked a masculine blue. Moriah wanted in on the chain photo this time.

Monday morning...ready, waiting, and excited for the bus to bring her!

Hannah's perspective.

Hadn't seen each other in 7 1/2 months! Notice the ring on her finger - date set for June 18, 2011 - congratulations Hannah & Jon!

The boys wanted to show her how they can throw rocks.

Later, we picked up Daniel from work at Boston Scientific. Hannah took a picture. I had never thought of it - now you can see where he works.

Not to break with tradition, we took her to see the Franciscan Friary to stay awake.

Hannah and Daniel coudn't wait to make a batch of chocolate chip cookie dough with the Nestle cchips she brought with her. They made an event of it.

The day ended with a beautiful sunset.
