Pittman Trip 2010

We are so lucky to have had some great friends since we were first married. The Pittman's have been with us through all of our ups and downs and we love them. They just came for a visit with their 4 adorable kids and we had a blast!
The trip started with a journey to Niagara Falls. The kids had a great time swimming and getting wet in the falls.

We stayed at our favorite hotel that has the yummiest breakfast and an amazing view of the falls.

We had a date night at the gardens. It is so much fun how young and care free we feel when we are together. I don't know if it is because our friendship started before we had kids but when we are together we are silly and in love just like we are newlyweds again.
This is me and my beautiful Cher. What an inspiring and amazing friend she is to me.
Here are the boys bowling. We had so much fun.
Here is Charlie teaching Kira how to eat like a piggy. They laughed so hard and made quite a mess.
It has been so much fun to have our kids grow up together. Here is Abby and Leah when they were still little girls.
Here are our big girls today.
Ethan and Luke were born just a few days apart.
Here are our cute boys now!
The kids had lots of time to just play outside and get to know each other again. We love how much they love being together and how well they play. We can only hope they are college roomies someday.

Here was our last group shot with all of us before they headed back home. We are quite the group.
It was a crazy few days but I would not trade it for anything. Mike and Cher thank you for being our friends and thank you for making the trip out here. We love you and your kids and can't wait to see you again!

It was so worth it.

I was missing you, so I randomly logged onto your website to lots of new posts! How unstable am I that I have a big lump in my throat after this post? I mean... I was there! We love you guys, and you are a gift to both of us and our family. I LOVED watching the kids play so well together, and you know what? It's just gonna get better from here.

My favorites, in no particular order:
- eating lots of sugary cream cheese (uh.. 4lbs..)
- Abby/Leah, Ethan/Luke playing
- Dow gardens/bowling date
- Movie in your bed (with random people in the living room. : )
- Snuggling smiley Logan
- As always... LAUGHING
