fall festivities! (part II)

Our autumn adventures continued this week with a visit from 
Mojo & Dado!

With all the fall colors and cool weather, we were able to enjoy some good trail walks, Hamp's flag football game, playing at the park, and plenty of frisbee and football tossing in the back yard!


And when the weather turned too cool or wet to play outside, we watched football, played games, napped and read books!















The highlight of the weekend, however was watching a 6-man crew replace the roof of the house in just 2 days:
Friday morning - the roof is coming off!
Friday afternoon - no roof!!!
Saturday morning - new roof going up...
and by Saturday afternoon - new roof is dried in and ready to move on!
Again, the in-between moments were the best... full of silly faces and sweet gestures; Dado always plays "show n' tell" with cool science tricks and videos. Mojo feigns interest in Minecraft and gets the boys to tell her all about their 'worlds'. Both of them are so wonderful to have here...


... and while it's always hard to say 'good bye' ~ we know we'll see them again real soon!

  1. Luke and I were so excited to see the roof!!! I am sure that is a huge feeling of relief. I also love seeing those squeaky clean fresh from the bath faces with their loving Grandparents!
