Well, we just got back late Monday night from visiting our friends, Nick and Beth Dekker, in Columbus, Ohio to meet their new son, Will. Nick and Beth are our long-time friends with whom we vacation regularly, and it was an absolute thrill to meet Will and welcome him to our long-distance family. He is just darling...smiley and chatty and curious with the softest little peach-fuzzy head :) Nick and Beth look amazing, even after only 3 1/2 months, and they are wonderful parents. It was quite a sight for the four of us to sit in their living room and watch our children interacting with each other!Ohio was in all of its autumnal glory the whole time we were there...65 degrees, sunny, and leafy...and we took full advantage. We went to the Circleville Pumpkin Festival, went apple picking, and took a walk through a near-by ravine (check out the "Breakfast with Nick" link to the right for great details and photos of the pumpkin show!). Autumn is also a fabulous season for delicious food--and Nick and Beth have a gift for appreciating a savory meal!--so we ate some seriously yummy meals while we were there. All in all, a fabulous trip...worth the 10 hours of air time with a SERIOUSLY active 13-month-old. Let's just say we're relieved that it's the Dekker's turn to come see us :)

It looks like Maddie thought Will was good enough to eat! Glad you had fun!
