My second cousin Nate, his wife Bet, and their kids came to visit on their way back from a wedding in LA. We still aren't sure why someone would spend time and money to come visit us, but they claimed it was to see if the Addink kids lived up to the portrayal they get on the blog. And we wanted to see if their kids lived up to their reputation.
Nate is my second cousin. That makes our kids third cousins. And since our dads are actually double first cousins, I think that makes our kids double third cousins. Follow that? Yeah, neither did I. I just hope none of the branches in the family tree cross anywhere in there.
But since they are Addinks too, and have four kids, that means we had every seat in the short bus filled with an Addink. Scary, huh?
They only spent an afternoon here as a layover on their flight home, but we managed to get out to the park and have some fun before they close the splashpad down for the season.

In reality, we just came so that we could have our pictures on your blog.
Gotta say...having not seen you in what, 15 years, it was wierd knowing so much about you and your family just from this blog. Everywhere I looked in your house, I was like "oh, that was in the XXXX post."
Thanks again for the hospitality - and for cleaning out the "storage" room so we could have a super-comfy bed.
Well, you made the cut! And come back anytime, we had a blast.
