MN Trip (part 1)

Last weekend we went to MN to introduce Lucas to members of the Pearce and Johnson families as well as some of Erin's friends. On Friday evening Lori hosted us for dinner and a bonfire. I forgot to take pictures but we had a great time. Nathan enjoyed playing catch with Hayden and Kylan while I tried to win Elliot over. Lori got the touch back for holding and calming infants while Erik made it possible for me to enjoy my first smore of the summer (I toasted the marshmallow to a great golden brown...just how I like it). Kristin and Chris also joined us for the evening. I don't have a picture yet but soon I'll get one up of Lucas wearing the Jordan onesie he got from them.

Lucas also got to spend some good time with his cousins Breck and Cullen and the rest of the Pearce family. The boys are so good with Lucas and they love holding him, which is why I pulled them out in the last sentence...Elicia finally had to say no to the boys so she could hold Lucas for a bit. ;)

I love this picture. Breck is such a great older (oldest) cousin. He was so interested in Lucas that he was willing to just sit by him; you can see how much he loves him...Breck enjoyed his snack and seeing how interested Lucas was in his star.

This one is so cute too...great expressions of both boys.

Lucas soaking up all the attention and love.

Nathan has fun playing with his nephews. We tried so hard to get a picture of both of them looking and smiling that it just turned into a game of silliness.
