It's spring break so I had to make the most of it and get out of Roanoke. Nathan (my second oldest brother) agreed to drive 11 hours with me and the kids to visit our oldest brother David and his family in New Haven, Connecticut. So far we've had an amazing time with David, Lauren and their two beautiful little girls, Amelia and Frieda. Highlights have been dress ups, a trip to the beach, and David's unbelievable pizzas (Pizza 1: banana, onion, parmesan, and curry with vodka sauce; Pizza 2: lemon, fennel bulb, with almonds and parmesan; Pizza 3: pistachio, rosemary, and red onion with olive oil; Pizza 4: chicken, plumbs, cilantro, bean sprouts, and lime in satay sauce). I know they sound crazy but believe me it was the best pizza I've ever had. If David weren't going to be a famous architect he could easily have become the world's finest chef. We're sad to have to be leaving so soon. Thanks Dave and Lauren for a wonderful weekend.

I LOVE that first picture with Nathan. : ) Glad you guys got to have some good time with family! Those pizzas sound weird, but I am sure they turned out delicious.
Oh, Em, I'm so glad you got a getaway. My favorite picture is of Lizzie dancing with the sunglasses. :)
these are such cute pictures! you have one talented brother! It seems you all got more than your share of creativity! I wish I could taste his pizza.
I agree with Maria. I'm so glad you got a break and that you convinced Nathan to go with you. Cute pictures!
Looks like lots of fun. I'm sure your brother loved having you. Loved the pics, esp. of Lizzie in the dress! What a little diva! Love you!
Amazing Em, as usual :) Wish I was going to see the kids this summer. I can't wait for our adventure!
