I wish Oklahoma was in California

In between my visit to Washington, my sister, Dave and the kids came for a last minute visit to California. Kristi was able to snuggle with Caden a lot, and I got to spend some much needed time with my favorite niece, nephew and bro in law.
While they were here, they got to take their first trip to Disneyland (check out Kristi's blog archive for some great pictures of that), go swimming and just hang. Everytime they are here I remember how much I love spending time with my sis and her family. As we were driving home the night we had to say goodbye, I couldn't help but burst into tears in the car and really struggle with the fact that some of the closest people in my life live so far away. While the time with them I do get to spend is some of the most precious moments, it just plain sucks when that time comes to an end. So I already am trying to book a ticket to Oklahoma in September so Caden doesn't get too big before the next time he sees his aunt, uncle and cousins.
Here are a few pics of their visit (my sis has more good ones that I still need to get--but here are a few):

Kaleb and his ladybug..he decided Caden should play with the
lady bug too. (See below)
No matter how much I look at the map, unfortunately, Oklahoma is not located in California. So until it is, plane trips will be as often as possible, the tears will continue, but praise God for cell phones, skype, facebook and email.
