Family Time

We had the special treat of having family with us for all of October. Our brother and sister-in-law and their cute kids stayed with us while Ryan was doing a podiatry internship in the area.
We tried to find fun adventures to go on every weekend. Here we are enjoying Boulder and NCAR.
We took in two pumpkin patches to enjoy our gorgeous fall weather. We also made every pumpkin dessert we could think of in a month! I am missing that - the scale is not. :)
Sara and I bravely took 4 kids under 4 to the Zoo and the Nature and Science Museum. No big deal. As my friend says, "We're professionals, right?"


The cousins enjoyed a variety of sculpture on one of our Saturday adventures.
Sara so kindly watched my kids while I took on a crazy month of photo shoots. We did a little photo shoot of their own too. This was one of my favorites. Their kids are so sweet to each other. You give them one treat and they instantly offer to share with each other!
My kids completely loved having cousins downstairs to play with every day. Katie was so in love with little Davis (ok, young Davis - since he's almost as big as her). I'd catch her giving him hugs and kisses, which she doesn't do for anyone else! The girls are both in withdrawals now - not a day goes by without Katie asking for each of them. I'm so glad they got a chance to enjoy each other and this special time together. We secretly have our fingers crossed that Ryan does his residency in Colorado.

This post made me really miss Colorado and especially the people who live there! Every time the kids see a school bus they are sure that Eleanor is on it.

Kiss my cute nieces for me!
