The end of Sept and early Oct were busy for us. We went on two trips back to back. First down to Santa Barbara California for a beautiful wedding. Dan was the Best Man for his great friend growing up Jerry, and Nolan was the Ring Bearer. Nolan made it down the isle although not without help (he did better at rehearsal). He did however give the Groom "knuckles" when he got down the isle to make up for it.
After a long weekend in CA we headed home for a couple days before Nolan and I flew to Colorado. We went to visit a dear high school friend Rachel and her family, as well as go see the Beavers take on the Colorado Buffalo. Dan joined us later in the week. Boy is it hard flying with a kiddo alone! I got SO LUCKY that the only person to not show up for the flight happened to be in our row so we had an extra seat. Not sure we would have made it otherwise. It was great to spend time with Rae, relax a bit, and meet her two kids. We had such wonderful time, plus the Beavs won!
