Welcome Home Uncle Brook!

Last week we had the pleasure of having Uncle Brook (Teage's youngest brother) come stay with us for a few days. He just returned from serving a two year mission in Argentina, and we were all so excited to see him! This was also the very first opportunity that the boys had to meet their uncle as well. Usually the boys have a hard time warming up to new people, but boy did they love their uncle! I think it helped a little that Brook looks so much like Teage, and the boys just took to him instantly. We had so much fun having him here. We had a big family dinner, went blueberry picking, celebrated cousin Kai's birthday, toured Seattle a bit, ate the never ending pasta bowl at The Olive Garden, what more could you ask for? Brook was so much fun and enthusiastic about everything that we did, and just couldn't get enough food (especially dessert!) :) Thanks for coming to stay with us Uncle Brook, we are so excited you are home!

he totally looks like Teage. Crazy. It's amazing how my boys cling on to my brothers. Looks like he'll be a dream uncle for your boys!
