Ryan's Weekend Visit

This weekend Ryan flew into Portland to join us for a few days. Lauren and Nolan were so excited to see him and we finally got to go on our first date since Nolan's been born (thanks mom & dad!). Saturday was spent at a reunion with Ryan's side of the family - all of his cousins were there and we got a great 4-generation picture with his grandma and mom:

















My family had a big BBQ get-together at my parents house on Sunday afternoon and everyone had a great time swimming in the pool and playing round robin ping-pong (I don't think I've seen my parents move that fast in a long time!)















Unfortunately, Ryan had to leave us Monday morning to head home, but it was wonderful that he was able to come out for a little bit and now we will only have 10 more days until we are all together again. :)
