October -- The month of visitors!

So October has been a very fun month for us. We had visitors 3 weekends in a row. First my parents came to visit us on Columbus day weekend. We had lots of fun going on walks, our last baby sign class at the zoo, eating at the Cheese cake factory for dinner and doing a walking tour of the monuments downtown.

The next weekend our friend Amy made the drive from Rochester to D.C. just to visit us. We had fun walking around M street (and resisted buying anything!), going on the "Duck Tour" and eating at Union station. The duck tour was really cool -- it is on an authentic amphibious vehicle from WWII and goes on the streets of DC and on the Potomac river.

Last weekend we had visitors from Rochester and Chicago -- Mike's parents and sister Stacie, and his sister Stephanie, her husband John, and their son (our nephew) Will. We also had a very fun weekend walking around The Mall, eating out, celebrating GG's birthday, and just hanging out. It was great to have the whole fam together!

So we have had a great month! We were pretty tired afterwards but give us one weekend to rest and we will be ready for more visitors! :-) So please let us know if you ever want to come on down. Washington is a great place to visit and we would love to have you. Thank you friends and family for making October so much fun!

Susan - It looks like you have had some great company. It's so wonderful when family and friends come visit. We are heading to NY on Friday to visit family - I can't wait for some fall weather. It's so fun keeping in touch and watching Marisol grow!!
