A couple of weekends ago we actually had some friends come and visit! We were excited that Andrew and Callie with their son Thomas would drive those 7 hours from Oklahoma to see us. We met them almost 6 years ago during medical school. And although Andrew is a geologist turned lawyer, he and Aaron get along pretty well. We had some fun Memphis activities planned, but the whole time it just rained. Actually more like poured buckets! We managed to drive over to the Mississippi River and watch from the car window. It was huge, covered the walking path & grass and was up to the tree trunks. We also got to get BBQ one night for dinner, so not all was lost.
Poor Thomas was stuck playing with princess toys all weekend.
Luckily he found something he could get into! The blocks.
But when Ava was like, "Oooo, pretty blocks! Let's make a Royal Princess Castle out of them, and then you can be my prince and we can go to the ball" and blah blah blah...
...He was like, "I don't think so!" and showed her what was up!*Editor's Note: Um, I just read over this and realized that I need to point out Thomas is one of the cutest kids I've met! That's why I didn't mind him one bit rough housing Ava. Actually she enjoyed it. And who couldn't love a kid with those curls?! Thanks for the coming out for a visit you guys! It was great to see you!

So sad that you have a picture of Thomas in pushing action! Now I can't sweetly deny it! We'll have to work on that one... We sure had a great time seeing you guys!
I bet you had a lot of fun together even with the bad weather. Your kids are just darling and it looks like they got along pretty well. =)
Too bad we couldn't be there. We miss you guys !
