Family Reunion

Marco's family is here! It's super exciting and there is nothing better than to see the huge ear to ear grin that is constantly spread across his face as he interacts with his son, mother and brother. We are excited to have Gabriel and grandma here for the week. I like having the house filled with people. It feels great! Spending time with people you like and family is one of the best ways to spend time. I never feel like it is wasted time and when my family and friends are here in October for the wedding I will be spending as much time as possible with all of them.

Even though not all of Marco's immediate family is here, since Marco's mother got here we have skyped a lot with Gamaniel who lives in Spain. We also do it when his brother and sister-in-law come over with our niece. It is super cute to see how the cousins (Who are 7 months and almost 1 year old) react to one another and the computer. Ah technology. I love that we can keep in touch with everyone. This picture sums it up pretty nicely.

"Family isn't always blood. It's the people in your life that want you in theirs; the ones who accept you for who you are, the ones who would do anything to see you smile and who love you no matter what." (I found this quote on pinterest)
