We were so lucky to overlap with the Wisneski family pilgrimage to CT. Wayne is from Hamden CT and makes the effort about every summer to enjoy 2 weeks with his family. This year that entailed a 24 hour drive from Florida. Well clearly they have a fabulous family worth visiting;).
We were lucky they carved out a day for us. When they left Germany, Blake was nestled in a carseat headed for a train ride to Frankfurt, now he is a cool dude pistol (quote from Diane) just trying to keep up with everyone else. He was happy to have Shane on his level
This is a cute photo of Shane and Anna, but I must say, it was one of the few moments Anna was with Shane and not Nick.
Diane soaked up a little baby drew time as we started the morning just chilling on the driveway
What a fabulous looking crew
Me and my sweet Diane
Just seeing them again for only a day re-instates my faith that ever time we get together it will feel like the 365 days in between were erased. Of course Diane gave a quick call out to Farrah as she knows we were talking about her too. Diane, Farrah, lindsey and I all found our ways together in Germany and what fate brings together, no one can separate right?
The kids were fast friends again while Diane and I could sit and enjoy how well they enjoy each others company. Diane took us hiking to sleeping giant mountain, but the kids just had a blast running through the trees and picking up toads. Eve made fast friends immediately with a toad. When he pied on her, she didn't dropped him like a disgusted princess, I think her affection for him increased! She hiked with him and finally released him into a home she constructed before we departed --- Our departure which was encouraged by the brewing storms
We enjoyed some time in Wayne's home for a bit while the storms flew around and than packed back up for a family party/high school graduation party at Wayne's sisters house. Before hand Diane was prepping me with photos, names backgrounds. Wayne is one of 4 and each of his brother/sisters have at least 3 kids ranging from 18-1 1/2 ... looks pretty hopeless for me. They were such a welcoming family and I loved linking personalities with the names and was so thankful they let us tag along as part of the party. There are hopefully more photos to come, but my camera crapped out on me and Diane is currently on her 24 hour return voyage to Florida. We loved being with you all!
