Allison's Visit...

James' twin sister Allison had planned to come to California in May for months.

The summer James and I met the entire Lanai crew 

(a complex James lived at that has a great group of friends)

 went to a Coldplay concert.

They intended to do it again in 2012.

Poor James was devastated that he couldn't get tickets since it was just 6 days after Annie's due date and we didn't want to risk the conflict.

But we were thrilled Allison was coming out for it.

I was so worried Annie wouldn't be born by the time of her visit.

Luckily, Annie was very prompt and arrived a week early.

We were even charmed with a visit from some of the Lanai crew.

Annie loves them already as you can see.

Adore Amy and Leigh and so grateful they have adopted me into the "family."

We hit up the park across the street from our house.

James was thrilled to have Trent in town to throw Wilson with.

  

Unfortunately our move is bitter sweet.

We are moving far from James' sister Katie and her sweet family who we adore 

and closer to Allison and the rest of the Barkers.

It was a super short visit but all Annie needed to fall in love with her aunt Allie.
