So, i have been in New Hampshire the past day getting ready for Jess and Clays wedding and spending time with her family, and no surprise it has made me really miss my family. Whenever I spend time with friends or other families, i automatically compare them and how they operate as a family to the Washburns. And not saying that we are superior, it is just different, we have always been a different family than most. There are so many friendships within our family, spouses, siblings, parents, we are all friends with each other and that is what I think makes us so unique. When i come home from Utah, I spend 99% of my time with family and that is by my choice. People out in Utah have learned that family is my #1 priority, bc I spend so much time traveling to see them.
Also it is fun to think of how it will be when i eventually get married, not only because I will be geting married! But because I know it will be a big family event, like the other 2 weddings have been. That in itself excites me! I love when our house is full to the brim with our family, it makes it feel so alive. Nothing is better than waking up to a random niece or nephew telling me i have to get up because the sun is up too and then coming downstairs to mom and the boys drinking coffee and reading the paper...oh how i miss my family!

We miss you too! I agree...we do have the best family! I can honestly say that we all love getting together. You just don't hear that very often anymore. Usually people complain or make jokes about their in-laws, but I could never imagine being in that position. We will look forward to many more mornings of coffee downstairs, and I'll make sure to have my 3 kids wake you up with the sun! :) Love you!
Sus, don't worry, Ally is usually leading the charge to wake me up! I can't wait until we all get together sometime soon. Hopefully the beach becomes an annual thing that we can all look forward too! We are so fortunate to be members of the Washburn family...I'm headed home on Sunday and I can't wait to just be at home!
