Andy and Shannon flew in from Providence on Saturday morning, October 6th. Sophia was only 9 days old when she got to meet her East Coast Auntie and Uncle for the first time! We spent the entire weekend with the family. It all started Saturday afternoon, with a trip to the apple orchard! We quickly realized it was way too hot to spend much time at the orchard, so we found a shady park and ate our picnic lunch. After we were chased out of the park by a band of biting bugs, we retreated back to the coolness of my parent's house to spend the remainder of the afternoon resting and chatting. I gave Shannon and Mom haircuts, we played Settlers of Catan, and closed the evening with a run to Nelson's for some delicious ice cream!
The next day, we woke up early and headed to church where Sophia was oodled and canoodled. Then back to my parents' house again for a meal with the great grandmas and Aunt Wendy. That evening, the party moved to our house where the rest of the evening was spent eating treats and watching season one of Heros. Then we had to bid farewell to Andy and Shannon :(
What a great way to spend the weekend!
