Cole Visiting

Things were so stressful and crazy over December that I didn't get a chance to upload our pictures or update my blog for the last few months. I'm finally feeling like our lives are a little bit back in control again, so I'm trying to get back on top of everything. 

In November we got to have my brother Cole come stay with us for three weeks. He was doing home school in Ecuador, so he just worked from here while my parents were traveling a ton for mission stuff. We got to have him here for Thanksgiving, and it was a great time. Graham loved Cole a ton especially this trip, but Lucy was NOT a fan until the last few days before he left. Then as soon as he left she started talking about him all the time, and wanting to call Cole. She's a fickle friend, that girl. We tried to do some fun things with him, but a lot of the time we were just sitting around doing regular life, and he was nice enough not to be bored with us.

When we picked Cole up at the airport, Graham and he were matching!

Graham spent a lot of time sitting in Cole's lap and snuggling with him. 

Whereas Lucy wouldn't let him get any closer to her for the first few days.


We had lunch at Dane's school several times while Cole was here.


"Save me from this crazy guy, Mom!"



Cole was a good sport and slept in the toy room so the boys would come wake him up every morning. 



Tommy and Dane went rock climbing with Cole one afternoon.


We went to the Dallas Arboretum to see their Christmas exhibit, which was nice but kind of underwhelming for how much it cost ($$!).

Tommy and Cole went to a Mavericks/Jazz game with some men in our ward.

A nice long bike ride one Saturday.


Cole was just an excellent guest. We were all really sad to see him go.
