Family Pictures

While in Alaska, I was able to get a few family photos... I think most of the "good" ones were taken with someone else's camera; I know there were pictures of me with all of my nieces and nephews. So, maybe my siblings will share. :)

All together...

Jacob, a ray of sunshine to the soul!

Me, with Kaiya - who has the most beautiful blue eyes!


Chase, the newest addition... he's a GREAT snuggler!


My beautiful sisters with their babies... being an aunt is FABULOUS! :)
