At the end of October, we had a great visit from Ed, Theresa, Isla and Ashley. It had been way too long since we'd been able to get together...in fact, a year had passed!! Max and Isla had a lot of fun when we got together to celebrate a family wedding back in Oct 2012, so we hoped that they'd have a great time this time too. I almost couldn't stand how cute they were together!!! They're little besties. It definitely made us realize we'll have to make the visits a more frequent occurrence.
We had fair weather while they were here...not perfect, but we got to spend a lot of time outside. It's crazy for us southern-non-city-dwellers to imagine what it was like for our Manhattanite cousins to walk outside to a huge backyard. I am sure Isla wondered where the trains, sidewalks, etc were. We can't wait to introduce Max to the big city - hopefully in the spring.
Without further adieu...a photo dump of all our shenanigans.

one of a million attempts to get a photo of the kids. I think capturing a group of wild monkeys on film would easier!!! Maybe next year :)
We absolutely cannot wait to get together again!!
