We had a small Thanksgiving with just the four of us on the 24th, then Peter and Meghan flew in on Friday morning and stayed until Monday evening. We had a beautiful, long weekend with them! They made huge leaf piles for Brennan to jump into and were good sports about jumping in with him. Everyone was so dirty from playing in the yard and leaves, but Brennan loved every minute of it!
When we picked Pete and Meg up from the airport on Friday, Peter jumped right in the backseat between the two car seats and it totally startled Tyler. Tyler cried every time he looked at Uncle Pete on Friday. I was worried it might continue like that all weekend. Thankfully, by Saturday, it seemed that Tyler had warmed up to Uncle Pete. Pete and Meg watched Tyler for us as we went to get the Christmas tree.
Brennan discovered a new favorite toy... Meg's iPad!
Meg and Pete drew a track in the driveway for Brennan to ride his bike on. Although he is riding outside of the lines in the photo below, he actually did a great job riding his bike in the track. It was great for him to practice riding and steering his bike.
While Brennan's occasional defiant attitude stumped Uncle Pete, Tyler's sweet smile and laughs were the cure. Pete and Meg were so helpful with both kids all weekend. It was great having them here for a visit and we were all sad to see them go home yesterday. As we drove away from the airport, Brennan was literally in tears, crying, "I'm going to miss them."
