When Sarah and Lexi returned to the U.S. on May 7, they entered the country at the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport because that's the largest major airport for Sarah's mother, who had been with them for their last two weeks in Nairobi so Sarah could have some help with Lexi when flying home. Because they were entering the U.S. there, they and the rest of Sarah's family used the occasion for a family reunion from that day through Saturday. Sarah's father drove up from Iowa, I flew in from Washington, D.C., her sister and her family flew in from Salt Lake City, and we all stayed with Sarah's brother and his family in the Minneapolis area.
There were eight adults and four kids (ranging in age from 10 months to 2 years) in the same house (luckily it's big and has a few bathrooms) for a few days and nights.
This was the first time we met our youngest niece, Nora, and we loved having all of the first cousins together. Here they are:
