Sisters and Cousins

Our house was bursting with even more energy and enthusiasm this past week, as Aunt Abby and Maya and Aunt Erin and Alice came to visit. Jeritt was traveling all week, so the timing was perfect for some extra company. It was so wonderful to have both of my sisters and their sweet baby girls around. And while Abby and Maya didn't get the cooler fall temps they were hoping for (it was as hot as Texas in Chicago!), we still spent plenty of time outdoors. Jeritt returned on Friday night, and today we enjoyed one final morning at the beach.

Maya wasn't sure she should let this strange-looking girl in the house.
