Italy with Uncle Mark

A couple weeks ago Uncle Mark, Miss Krystal, and Mr. Jared came to visit. We took them to Italy. We all had a marvelous and fast 5 days together. It was warm and sunny the entire time. Uncle Mark and Miss Krystal read stories with the little guys in the "way-back-seat", Mr. Jared fed Josiah his baby food and entertained, and all the back-seat members played Jenga in the Van. We drove through the Alps, we saw the "leaning tower" in Pisa, rode bikes on the city wall of Lucca, swam in the beautiful Mediterranean, ate pizza and seafood. The boys loved all the extra attention, Tom and I loved the backseat assistance, as well as the young-man-backs to haul the kids on our hikes. We love Uncle Mark - he's cool. We love Uncle Mark's friends, too! Bella Italia is, well, beautiful!
