The Nelson's visit!

Sara's cousins and family came to visit from MN right when the cool weather hit AZ unfortunately.  It even looked like snow on the ground :(  Here in AZ it is called graupel - a mix of slush and hail if that makes sense!
Boy was it good to see Double, Steve, Anne, Katie and Max and have them meet our daughter!  We miss them all terribly so we made the most of our short time together. Starting with picking them up at the airport.  No curbside pick-up for these girls and boy.  Steve and Sara surprised them by meeting them in the terminal!  Max was an excellent flier we heard - yay!  Once getting to our house Katie got in a lot of Ashley cuddles!  So fun to see :)
That evening Sara's parents and Uncle Don came over too and we had a Mexican fiesta for dinner. Yum!!
The next day was a tad warmer so after making quite a few batches of homemade donut holes we ventured over to the park for the boys to play a bit.  We can't believe how big Max is now.  The last time we saw him was in late July when he was a lot less mobile!
Max really enjoyed playing in the sand.  The cold wasn't going to stop him!
Max and Trevor preferred to play independently that day at the park except for a few minutes of sand play. 
Trevor sure had a lot of fun having Max around and has talked about him ever since.  We think Trevor enjoys bossing other kids around.  Good thing that Max is a willing participant at this point (age) in his life.  :)  Can't wait to see you all in MN this Spring.  XOXO
