weekend trip















Firefly (ok, her real name is Marti) flew out from California to visit some of her East Coast pals and since I count myself among her East Coast Pals, I loaded my family into the car Friday afternoon and drove us all to Western Massachusetts to get together with her and the Other East Coast Friends.

Western Massachusetts is beautiful and I was feeling some serious landscape envy. It's just a really nice area. I kept asking Dave, "tell me why we don't live here."

It turned out to be a weekend of lots of hanging out and talking and playing with kids and enjoying each other. A great weekend.

It's so pretty! When you see a little boy looking at a carefully raked pile of leaves, you know there is only one thing on their mind ...!
And what a gorgeous little red head your Isaac is growing into.

Thanks guys! His hair looks so red when he wears orange. So, I try to dress him in a lot of orange. ;)

It sounds like you guys had such a great time! Melissa just sent me the pictures you took of Enzo! I told her I want a copy of all of them!

A great time, indeed. I'm so glad we ended up being able to just hang out. Your pictures make our yard look so pretty! I felt honored to have you taking pictures of my family and my town.

Dave said...

Thanks, Melissa! You are so sweet! And it was EASY to "make your yard look pretty!"

What a beautiful place - and beautiful friends! I love the picture of you and Marti. My fave.

I keep telling Lucas that our leaves will turn red or orange, but so far they mostly go from green to... dead on the ground! Wah?! I need to take him further northeast to prove that I'm not lying!

Marti, you need to just move back this way already.
