After months of talking about it, Uncle Brad made a visit to our house for the first time. He was traveling with his boss, Blair, (and his girlfriend Kristen) because Blair bought a BMW and came here to pick it up and do some traveling around Europe.
We only had 24 hours with him so we soaked it all in. It was so much fun for him to come to our house and see all the things that we talk about over the phone. He also got to meet Emma for the first time!
We spent the afternoon going on a walk around the trails and staying outside to keep them from succombing to the effects of jet lag. Thankfully the weather was beautiful so we took full advantage of it. Brad went with me to pick up Jackson at school in the afternoon while Blair and Kristen relaxed at the house. Brad was very interested to see what Jackson's school was like. I don't think he had any idea what to expect when we picked him up. Jackson was so excited to see Uncle Brad as he had been counting down the days until his arrival.
Jason got home not long after that and we enjoyed the backyard while Blair and the kids jumped on the trampoline. Blair had been craving schnitzel so we decided to head to a restaurant close enough to walk to for dinner, Bauer Schmitt's. We had an excellent dinner some great conversations!
I truly treasure the time that we had with him during his brief visit. He says he will be back again...and I'm going to hold him to that!
Big sister and little brother ;-)
