We packed up and headed over to D.C. again towards the end of September. We had heard that the Moreiras had a newly acquired Wii, so we of course had to go visit and see their new toy.
Okay, really we wanted to visit these guys, (and Nathaniel too). There had been no recent pictures of our favorite Troy boy on the Moreira blog, sooo we were forced to visit in order to see this growing boy.
Troy is already upstaging Hallie in looking-at-the-camera abilities... We love her anyways.
We were pleased to see that Troy is growing well, and cute as ever!
We spent an evening at the pool, Troy fell asleep after about 5 minutes of excitement. Hallie was tired, but true to form, wouldn't think of sleeping when there was so much fun stuff to watch.
Cute Troy during the 2 minutes he was awake.
We spent a good hour taking turns jumping off the high-dive. I'm pretty sure all of the 12 year olds were laughing at the "old" people who would stand at the end of the diving board for 5 minutes before we jumped, but it was soo high once we got up there. Grant had excellent form as you can see.
We went for a walk around a park one night.
Showing the kids turtles in the pond.
And then we headed home. We arrived home with a Cristy, a Troy, and a speeding ticket. We were happy about 2 of those 3, and no we didn't get the ticket while Hallie was driving.
A rare moment of quiet on the drive home.
Cristy was a HUGE help, and motivated me to get a few projects finished around the house. This is our family picture wall, we're still waiting on a few pictures.
And she helped me paint an ugly laminate bookcase we had. Grant claims he doesn't like it, but I think it's my favorite piece of furniture in our house now!
Hallie and Troy "played".
And Hallie taught Troy how to hold onto Uncle Grant's/Dad's hair.
It was an amazing week, so so so much FUN! We finished it off with dinner at Nada, a Mexican restaurant (Nathaniel you guys totally win). Can you guess which tacos Cristy, the dietitian ordered? Yep, bacon, aka pork belly... might have been my favorite part of the whole week.
The bacon taco is on the right, I think Cristy used up your quarterly allotment of bacon Nathaniel.
