Matt's brother Ben and his wife Lydia (the two of them are better known as Bendia) made a big move across the big blue ocean from Oregon to live with US!!! Yes, us...we are so lucky! Ben just finished his Masters in Elementary Ed and his planning on substitute teaching here at all the schools in the area. Hopefully if we're even luckier it can work into a full time teaching position and they could stay even longer!! For now they are planning on being here for this school year. They have been here just over a week now and we've had a blast! They are incredibly great with the kids and we're excited to have lots of time to hangout. We've had to keep reminding the kids that they're not going anywhere so we don't have to show them every toy or trick in the first day or two. Matt's had to remind me that I don't have to show them the entire Island in one week like we normally do with guests. We are having fun with the latest additions to our family...they are better than a new puppy!!

Malinate is a little jealous of Bendia. :)
p.s. That photoshopped picture is awesome!
Well, now I feel left out because Adam and I don't have a cool combined name.
Hadam, Alary, Hilad. . .it's just not the same.
Do you and Matt call yourselves Katt, or Meri? I've got it-- you're Mer-dog!
How fun. I bet you guys are going to love having family around! love the family photo.
I love how you added them to the family photo!!
So impressed with the sensory writing assignment. You have a future novelist on your hands!
Lydia did the photoshopping. That's how they announced they were coming! Super fun times!
