Hermania!

The Hermans paid us a surprise visit today! We were all pretty pumped; Bear, I think, just about pooped his pants in sheer excitement.

The boys played some tennis, baseball, and boxing on the Wii. Willow can be seen running by, trying not to catch an elbow.

This was the first time we ever got to meet Maisy. Beautiful girl. She smiles a lot. I like that.

Here is Cassandra responding well to having a camera phone shoved in her face.

Eli (or, Baby Steve, as I have always thought of him) and Willow went nuts on the drums.

The boys smashing each other with lightsabers. This, says Bear, was his favorite part of the visit.

Then, I had to run off to a parent-teacher conference with Miss Cusamano about Bear. It went well, he is doing fantastically. The writing example she picked as his best happened to be about Bear's best friends, Spencer and Lucas. Good day for us all.

Baby Steve? That's fair. I just hope he doesn't have a slur and wet his bed until age 13. -- ST

Bear had this taste of the Herman boys, and it only wet his appetite for more!!! i love how the boys are still really close even though visits have become less frequent than when they were tots...the force is strong in these three

Yes we had fun. That is all we could talk about on the way home. The boys could not believe their good fortune. Danielle made this great salsa and I have been craving it ever since. So I made it and it was as good as I remember. Thanks for the good times Nelsons
