We Love the Fishers!

Our good family friends, the Fishers, all came to visit us for 8 days and it was so good to see them! They are a big golfing family and they surprised their dad, Howie, with the trip for his 60th birthday (I mean really surprised him...he didn't find out he was coming until he was at the airport...he thought he was just dropping off a friend!). There was lots of golf played, lots of candy consumed, lots of cokes/diet cokes drank, lots of late-night games, and lots of fun new memories made. "Well you're gonna so that's awesome."
One nice thing about having visitors is that we can actually get a photo of our whole family!
Another nice thing is that we actually get out of the house and do something adventurous, even if it is a little chilly outside!!
On one of our 'fish n chips' outings, we discovered Piper's love for peas. She pretty much drank this entire bowl down to the dregs.
Piper reminded us of Ralphie's little brother from A Christmas Story all bundled up, keeping cozy.
Walking around the abbey ruins at Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh.
Justus started doing a new thing: requesting that pictures be taken of him and posing for them. He has never done this before and normally it is like pulling teeth to try to get him to smile for a picture. So I was snapping away and he kept asking for more!!
Trying to lift the old cannon balls at Edinburgh Castle.
Making a call.
Looking like a Scottish Viking - or whatever this is supposed to be.
Showing off. Being awesome.
Looking cute. Go Broncos.
Showing off some more. This one is my fave. Gotta love him.
We miss our friends already. Now someone else get out here and come see us!!!
