Auntie Carrie's visit

Joel's sister Carrie lives in Big Sky, MT and came to visit us last week! We haven't seen her since Larkin was maybe a year old. We always try to coordinate our Wisconsin visits with her schedule but haven't had much luck with that these past few times!! Her busy season for work is always the time when we like to go to Wisco in the summer.

The girls were so excited to meet her, and Larkin kept saying, "Oh I just love Auntie Carrie so much! But you know, I don't remember her."

The girls warmed up quickly to her though and were in her room at 7am everyday for her wake up call--complete with lots of snuggling and kisses!

Of course they dove right into her makeup bag:

Larkin's first (and last) time applying her own eyeshadow-
We were pretty busy while she was here-did some shopping, saw the bats (well 3 of them--the rest would not come out!), and took her out for some BBQ, Indian food, and TexMex. One afternoon we packed a picnic dinner and went to Lake Travis.



We all had a great time catching up with her and can't wait to see her again in a couple of months at Uncle Ryan's wedding!
