I know, I've promised to post pictures before but that was before I realized our camera was broken. But, I should be able to post some pics soon since my sister is a picture taking crazy woman!!! She has taken lots of pictures and I asked her to send them to me when she gets home. So, assuming she does, I'll have some pics soon.
So, the not so fun stuff is that my sister and her fiance were headed up north for a few days and then will return to our house tomorrow. Anyway, in preparation for their trip up north, they packed some stuff in their suitcases. Their rental SUV was parked in our driveway and he took one suitcase out to the car and loaded it in the back. Came back in for the next suitcase and we chatted a bit and I wished them a good trip. A minute or so later they rang the doorbell. I answered and asked what did you guys forget? They told me their suitcase had been stolen. Yeah, yeah, April Fools right? We had been joking with each other earlier that morning with April Fools Day jokes. But, they weren't kidding. When he loaded the first suitcase in the back of the SUV, the back was left open as he came in to finish up and grab the other suitcase. While we were all inside, someone stole his suitcase from the back of the SUV. We were shocked that something like this would happen in our neighborhood let alone right in our driveway!! The neighborhood is very nice, quiet, kind of secluded. We would never think that we need to warn people not to leave something in their car in our driveway. It is a new neighborhood and there are still a lot of people in and out. Construction people, landscaping people, pool builders etc, etc so you don't really know who is in and out of here. What a total bummer. I guess you just never know and should always be on the lookout. We will now be very careful about leaving anything out. I'm just sorry that my guests had to be the victim of someone's stupid crime.

Good to catch up on the goings on! How bold to take a suitcase from the back of a vehicle when people are everywhere. I hope nothing super valuable or things that can't be replaced were lost.
Looking forward to a visit sometime in the near future! Which cousin is visiting?
