Here are a couple limericks that I spent about 1.5 minutes writing in honor of my brother's trip to visit us following the Boston marathon this week. Way to go on reaching your goal, Bri! We must have been worth the $50 more in plane fares that it took to add a 48 hour "layover" here to his trip back to Salt Lake. We really appreciate him coming out to see us!
My young brother's name is Brian.
He came here and I'm not lyin'
He went on a long run
Then we had lots of fun
Now without him Abby's cryin'.
The Boston marathon's all done.
The midwest has even got sun!
So Brian said, "Maybe
I'll go see the baby!
'Cuz the Wessman's are really fun!"
We loved having him here and Abby mauled him the entire time.
We visited the Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park in Grand Rapids (very cool):
Can you find Abby in this picture?
Abby knows that engineers need to be reminded of the benefits of good literature...
We took Brian to Bravo! and the MSU Dairy Store (i.e. Creamery) - both yummy.
Today we went to a very fun playground on the way back to the airport.
This merry-go-round was pretty speedy. I was a bit nervous a couple times, but she loved it.
This was Briton's first slide ride. (He was embarrassed though to be wearing a girls' hat!)
Thanks again, Brian! It was lots of fun! (We hope you thought so, too.)

Looks like you are having some fun experiences in your new home (and surroundings)!
The sculpture of the figures sitting on rocks is incredible. What material is it? I've never seen anything like it.
Darren unfortunately has worn more girl things than he'll be happy about someday. Fun to have your brother there.
Every kid needs a fun uncle! Looks like your kids have that. How fun to have family come visit. When you move away from home, you live for visitors! Cute pics :)
I like the limericks! Your kids are getting so big!
Awesome playground! I better not let Ellie see those pictures, she'll be too jealous.
