Friends

We were lucky enough to have some friends from college come to visit us this week! The Rylanders moved to North Carolina a few months ago and braved the six-ish hour drive to come play with us for five whole days of kids-running-all-over-the-place fun! Maria, Isaac (3)and Abby (almost 2) came on Wednesday and Richie joined us all on Friday. Maria and I worked out every day (I'm trying to talk her into a half marathon with me), we took the kids bowling, the moms got pedicures, we watched olympic coverage and we got a babysitter and went on a double date (which was so fun though I think we were all exhausted, kids have a way of doing that to us parents:). Carter enjoyed having friends to play with, and learn to share with. Isaac has a little crush on Ellie (notice his arm around her:) and all you twilight fans will know what I mean when I say we think he may have imprinted:). It was wonderful to be with some of our core group of friends- we have missed them and are so glad to have them close (well, closer at least)!
