We spent the long weekend on a drive up to Moore to visit Meg and family before they’re deployed back east.  I really loved the road trip with Matt and Tristan.  The drive was 8 hours each way and we had a blast playing music, laughing and just loving spending time together.  

This visit was the first time we got to meet baby Lena…

 … and the first time in a long time we got to see Abby. 

Tristan and Abby found they have a lot in common at their current ages (Tristan is 11 and Abby is 5).  They spent a lot of time together companionably playing video games, soccer and swimming.

Being in Moore surrounded by the devastation of the recent tornado we were so grateful to have each other and to have the time to share with this precious part of our family. We hate that they are moving farther away instead of closer.
