Maxfields

At the beginning of November Weston and Meredith came out to visit us. It was fun to have visitors at our new house. Poor Wes never warmed up to any of the adults, but he sure loved Sadie. Maybe I should say poor Meredith because she just never got a break. Weston only wanted her. I was tired and just coming out of the first trimester haze of sickness so I was pretty lame. We did manage to do a few fun things.

Dinosaur Museum
We spent a morning at the dinosaur museum at Thanksgiving Point. Always a fun activity.
 









BYU Basketball
We attended one of Daniel's games. Sadie got to do the chicken dance on the court with the cheerleaders. She is the one with her back to the camera in the gray sweater, next to the cheerleader kneeling.The kids discovered they could run to the top of the stairs and then run around the top of the arena. So that was fun.



Mostly we just stuck to our house and let the kids play. Sadie generally treated Weston like he was a baby and tried to carry him around a lot.


And then Elise tried to carry him.
The kids enjoyed lots of coloring and painting...

....as well as a few shows. Sadie spent a lot of time in this "pirate girl" costume that Meredith brought her, along with a bunch of other dress-ups for Christmas.


By the end of the week my girls influence started to show in Weston when he played with this princess for a little while.


Sometimes it just seems unfair that we don't get to live by most of our family.
I can't wait to visit the Maxfields in Minnesota. Summer 2015?
