Weekend Visitors

This past weekend David and I (ok, this was mostly my idea!) volunteered to watch my nephews, Aiden and Seth, while my sister and her husband celebrated their 5th anniversary. Just the boys stayed with us from Friday afternoon to Sunday evening, and then Alenna and Dan spent the night at our place on Sunday before heading home on Monday morning.

The boys were very well behaved while they were here!! They enjoyed hanging out at the house... playing the piano, reading books, playing with the neighbor kids and sliding our coasters across the carpet. (Who needs toys when you've got coasters that slide?!) But Saturday morning we were able to make a trip to the Philadelphia Zoo! The boys were tired after a few hours, but they talked about it for the rest of the weekend. I guess that means they had fun!

Another highlight from the weekend was Friday night when "Unca Davy" let the boys sit on his "mogocycle". That was a HUGE hit!! Aiden even made sure we thanked God for the motorcycle that night during prayers before bed.

I am so thankful that Alenna and Dan live close enough that Aiden and Seth can get to know us, and even visit us! We had a wonderful time with them!

Okay, it took me a few weeks to notice you blogged, since I'd gotten used to being disappointed every time I checked (and therefore not checking back too often). But yay for blogging again!! Good work!
