Hansen Family Reuinion

Dear Kate and Riley,
Its been a long time since I've written anything because its been a busy few weeks. Zachary had swimming lessons for two weeks, we spent a week recovering and getting ready for our reunion, then we spent a week in Carlsbad with the Hansen side of the family and we are finally home (and almost unpacked after a week!). I thought things would calm down once we got home but we are just trying to soak up every minute of summer and have been at the beach or the pool every day.

The Hansen family reunion happens every two years and at the last one I was pregnant with you. It is hard to believe how much has happened in that two years. Zach loved playing with Summer and Ali and for the first time I held both of them at once, we snuggled on a chair for a little bit and I had a wistful sort of 'what if' moment and really missed.

Zachary is getting so big, he did great at the beach, loves the water and especially the sand. He is standing now and I know he is going to take off walking any day now. We mostly just hung out at the beach all week, Dad did a little golfing and Grandma and Grandpa did a little babysitting, which was great! I'm already excited for the next reunion, I wish it was sooner!

Love, Mom
