A Zimmy Visit

Since I've been back to work life seems to have sped up and I got behind on a post I meant to put together a couple of weeks ago.  Clay's sister, Ally and husband Rick came to visit Pierce at the end of August (again, we have no delusions that anyone comes to visit Clay and I anymore!).  It was a ton of fun.  Originally Ally and Rick thought they would bring down their three boys, but in the end just the two of them came and we had some great times hanging out and loving on a baby.

Our big activity while they were here was a round of golf.  We dropped of Pierce at daycare and went to play 9 holes.  At first I had some guilt about leaving Pierce at daycare when I'm not at work and should be taking care of my baby.  But I also realize that I needed some fun times for me and it was only a couple of hours.  We had a lot of fun.  It was Ally's first time to golf EVER! so we played best ball between her and I and had a pretty good round.

We also had a fun hanging out at the house playing board games and just enjoying each others company.  Since we don't get to see them very often it was really nice just to spend time together.

I think they would have taken Pierce with them if I would have let them!

And of course we have an obligatory cute baby shot!


And a cute baby video!



We had a great visit with them and can't wait until next summer when we are planning a trip to the great north land to hang out at their cabin on the lake!  It should be lots of fun!
