I cannot believe how quickly things have gotten busy since school started. We are already into our third week with the guys back... crazy!!! Fred, Jose', and Steven are all on the football team... so we are looking forward to watching their Friday night games. They won their first game on Friday. Seth is playing soccer in a league outside of the school team and is also working.

We got a break from all of our busy schedules this weekend when some of our best friends from Seminary came to visit. Toby, Ellie, Ada, and Machen drove up from Atlanta Friday afternoon. I don't think I've laughed as hard as I did this weekend in a really long time. It was so great to spend a couple days with them. Labor Day weekend is our annual get together with the Riggs and Allen families. The 6 of us were able to spend some time together on Saturday night. We are looking forward to the time when Amelia is out of the hospital and we can all be together. Here are some pictures from the weekend...

Carter and Ada hanging out with "Uncle Dan" Saturday morning.

Carter and Ada sharing a snack. Ellie has the better picture of them "sharing" on her camera. Saturday morning Carter found Fruit Loops in our cupboard and Ada nicely poured them in a bowl for the two of them to share. We were laughing so hard that we had to take a picture before we took it away.

The girls on Saturday night...

Giving our husbands a smooch...

Steve's brother, Andrew, and his family were also with us on Saturday. Andrew let Dan check out his iPhone.

We spent some time at a local park Sunday afternoon. Carter does this new thing where he likes to run down the slide instead of sitting on his bottom. We thought it was funny at first... but now he tries to do it even when we are not at the bottom. We're trying to work on it.

Sweet Ada Francis. Thanks for making the drive you guys!!!
