Auburn and I were able to go back to Florida to visit my family for a reunion. Simon stayed in Germany and worked. The flights were a little crazy. Flying with a baby internationally by yourself is a little stressful, somehow though, we survived. Auburn did great on the planes and switched her schedule pretty quickly on both ends.
Auburn and I actually spent a whole week in Orlando before the reunion started. We spent the time with my parents, my brother Kyle and his wife, who live in Orlando, and my sister Carrie, who was in between semesters at BYUI. We spent most of the time shopping, swimming or at the beach. My brother Brent, his wife and their three girls came down later. We also stopped off in Jacksonville for a day and a half to see some friends and do some business. I forgot to take pictures in Jax, I was just having such a good time catching up with people. We missed Simon a lot! It was nice to be able to see all of my family. We had a great time!

Grandma and Papi's swimming pool.
Auburn had the entire pool to herself before her cousins came.
Grandma Hill was even able to come out from California for a few days before the reunion to see Auburn. Sadly, we didn't get to see Grandpa Hill, but hopefully we can soon!

It was a nice little river run with a sandy beach and little pool for the kids to play in.
Auburn and her cousins
We had a hard time getting all of the kids to sit still and look at the camera.
