My cousin Alyssa came through town with her boyfriend today and we all went to lunch in Old Town Alexandria. I haven't seen Alyssa since her trip here last year. We were able to spend about 3 hours catching up. I love seeing my cousin but it makes me sad too. It would be so nice to live in the same area. I realized last year when visiting Florida that my cousins Amy, Alyssa, and I are a LOT alike. It would be really nice to have that kind of family support system nearby. I didn't grow up near any family and I now wish I had. It's so much harder to keep in touch when you're not in the same state. Maybe that will be my New Year's resolution- to keep in touch with my cousins more.

Im SO glad you got to see each other! I know Alyssa was really looking forward to it. Jeremy and I are talking about a small trip in the spring before I get too fat and the baby comes. Maybe DC would be a fun trip =)
It was SO much fun to see you again! We have to do that more often.
