Uncle Aaron & Aunt Natalie!!!

It's been 14 months since James last saw his other half, which is just entirely too long. So we were all more than ecstatic to see Aaron and Natalie on Monday. Thayer finally got to meet them and we had a fun little family gathering. We TRIED to trim our tree, which by the way now has a sturdy hearth gate around it to keep little Harry from attacking. And then James, Aaron, Joanne, and Kate all headed down to the Cape for the night to visit Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, and swung up to visit cousin Eamon on the way home. And then today we had a nice day with just Aaron as Natalie was visiting with her sister's family down in Boston.

Parkington East had been awake since 6:30am, and Aaron rolled out of bed much later, hence the bedhead (sorry Aaron!), but it's a cute picture.

And then Aaron took a shot. Poor kid.
It was a sweet visit and we hope to see Parkington West again soon!!
