What a great weekend for us! Our good friends Patrick & Christy came for a visit (yep, it only took them 8 years to get their backsides up here for a visit - hahaha).
We've known Pat & Christy forever. They were in our wedding, we were in theirs - despite the distance, we've seen them on occasion when we've been back home in Cincy and have kept in touch more recently this past year. So they finally came for a visit with their 2 boys. Nate is close to Grant's age and Ethan is close to Blake's age, they were like 4 peas in a pod. Evan hung out with them off and on too, so all in all, it was just a great weekend!
We even did a little backwards travel via video. When Shawn proposed to me, we got the whole thing on video. After the actual proposal, Pat and Christy joined us for the rest of the evening for dinner. We all stayed at the hotel and had a blast - and we had some of that on video too. Talk about hilarious - not to mention how young we looked 15 years ago!!!
So thanks friends for an awesome weekend - we can't wait to do it agin . . . SOON!

Christy & Patrick - who will celebrate 12 years of marriage on the 29th!!!
A little cookout on the deck.
Grant, Blake and Nate on the playset.
Ethan was really cute playing pretend bad guys with the bigger boys. He loved the way Grant would play dead when he "shot" him.
Put 2 pyros together with their boys and it's pure heaven!
Ethan is scared to death of fireworks, but he loved throwing the poppers.
Grant and Nate had fun with the sparklers.
When they all left late Sunday afternoon, Evan and Blake crashed hard! Too funny!

Why are they so much easier to love when they are sleeping? I love the pic of them on the couches.
Looks like GREAt summer fun. Isn't summer the absolute 100% best? I have been reading about a lot of summer blog posts lately I think because our weather has been so beautiful. I have to say that when it gets above 90 degrees I get a little crabby. Glad you had a fun time.
I love the picture of Even and Blake crashed on the couches. You know it was a good day with friends when that happens.
