Trip to Columbus

We spent 5 days in Columbus, Ohio to attend the baby blessing of my nephew Clark and as an added perc to all of the newborn snuggling, we got to hang out with my sister Melissa and her husband Kevin. It was so fun to have my brother Matthew and my parents there as well.

Grandpa and Colin playtime

Hmm...I wonder what these guys are talking about?


Does it get any cuter than this?!?!


Colin gets some Auntie Lissa time

Grandpa and Grandma watching the kiddies


In case you were wondering, yes, Colin will chew on anything

We're thinking about keeping Kevin on retainer as our babysitter


We took a trip to Friendly's (for those who have never been East, they have the best ice cream sundaes!) and I don't know who was more excited: Megan, or Grandpa.




Peter and Matthew battle it out in chess and teach Colin and Clark all their tricks

Matching Glowy's!

We spent our last day in Columbus at the zoo and we had so much fun. Peter got the lion to roar, we watched a bison charge some zoo workers (don't worry, they got out in time), and spent at least 20 minutes watching some cute river otters which was definitely the highlight for the kids as well as the parents.










Poor Colin is exhausted from having so much fun

It looks like Peter and I are squaring off in some awful debate while Matthew and Ben enjoy us going at it. But, that's not it at all...our talk was more innocent that it appears from that picture. The only question is, what was going through our minds at that particular time? Peter?

It looks like you had a fun trip! I enjoyed looking through all the pictures! Colin is such a handsome little chubb! He is making me baby hungry! Peter, you did a good job on Megans hair! I am impressed.
