This past weekend we had our very dear friends from NH, the Woodrows, come and stay with us for the holiday weekend. Gray and Carter are just a week apart & Gavin and Dylan are a few months apart so we're all in the same ballpark in terms of "experiencing chaos together" (and I mean that in the most endearing way, of course). It feels like just yesterday when pregnant Bethany and pregnant I were enjoying a night out together at the 99 in Hooksett wondering what our baby boys might be like; wait, that was literally a year ago last Fall! How time flies!
What a gorgeous weekend we all had! The warm sun was shining (the temp. was around 70ยบ) and the leaves were at their peek here with colors in their highest intensity (Ella & I love the red ones and Gray & Daddy love the orange ones, which makes "the girls twins & the boys twins", according to the soon-to-be three year old offspring). We had a blast visiting to Nyack during Homecoming weekend. First we had the opportunity to all eat lunch at Jeff's favorite pizza joint in Nyack (Tarantella's); then we strolled the town a bit, watched the men's soccer game (the boys especially loved this!) and had fun doing kids' stuff like bounce houses & climbing rock walls. Ella LOVED the rock wall. She wanted to climb all the way to the top, but her nervous mom told her to not go that high; either way, she can't wait to do it again! And the 3 older kids had a blast on the bounce slide. Nyack is just gorgeous! And we are so grateful to be here!
After homecoming we headed back to our house for some home-cooked pasta fazool, harvest brews from NH, campfire with marshmellows, glow necklaces, a masterpiece sunset & funtastic conversation. God is good! What a memorable weekend we all had!
