Uncle Weston, Our Houseguest

For the last couple of months Weston has had a project with his work on the Fort Collins temple.  Unfortunately for him he has had to work out here a lot longer than he planned...but we feel like we have lucked out getting to spend a lot of time with him the last 2 months.  The boys have pretty much adopted him as the 4th brother, except for Quinn.  Quinn must feel a little sibling rivalry with our new arrival or something.  He loves Uncle Weston, but he also gets very possessive about his territory when Weston is around and announces loudly to Weston that this is MY mommy, or this is MY toy.  One time he pointed at the back door and said, this is MY house Uncle Weston.  We all got a laugh out of our 1 year old trying to kick Uncle Tony out of the house.

The third wheel on our date night.  So romantic!

Another benefit of Westy working here is that Erica and Scarlett got to come stay one week.  It was so much fun!  My boys LOVE their little, little Scarlett (as they sing to her).  One day when Erica was here we headed to Rocky Mountain National Park.  Our easy hike with the kiddos was a bit harder because part of the trail was iced over, but still beautiful views and a fun time.

The hiking crew for the day.

 We got to have some fall fun at Fritzler Farm one morning.

Quinn did not like the out of control bouncing on the bouncy pillow, but Scarlett LOVED it!  She had  a big grin the whole time.

They got to be here on my birthday.  We met up with some friends for lunch at Cafe Rio, and a little time at Swettsville Zoo.

Caden took this picture and managed to get all of our heads in!

 It was so fun all week watching these two little cuties!

 

 I'm personally hoping this project keeps stretching on so the girls can come visit again!  We loved having them here!
