A Riot of Color

We had such a wonderful trip up to New Hampshire last weekend--the kids loved the "calve-in" (cabin) and we all enjoyed the fall colors and just relaxing with LOTS of food! Here are a few of my favorite photos from the weekend.

We spent the weekend with our dear friends, Anne and Ken Schmidt, who came out all the way from Chicago to take a trip up to New Hampshire with us!


Ruby and Max love for Jared to throw them up in the air so they can fly! As you can see from the picture--they really do! It's a bit startling when people see it for the first time, but once they see how much fun everyone's having they decide it must be okay after all.


Here's beautiful lake that we drove by on our way up to North Conway. The foliage was so beautiful and the lake so still everyone was screeching their tires to stop and snap a few photos.


Jared and I.

We managed to get the kids to "pose" for a few minutes so that I could try to get one of them together--a very difficult feat! Here is one of my better shots--if only they were looking at me with those big laughing eyes!


Daddy helped them climb up in this tree. Max was a bit concerned the whole time (they weren't up high at all!), but it did make for a few cute shots.

Miss Daredevil wasn't afraid! She had a ball climbing up high in the golden leaves.


Annie and Max, Ruby and Uncle Ken


One of these days we're going to get the lighting right for our family pictures!

Stay tuned for pictures from our ride on the Conway Scenic Railway!

Wow! I can't believe the HEIGHT he gets when he throws the kids in the air! What absolute fun.

You guys do the best stuff as a family. So jealous of your fall weather and beautiful trees!

Wow! Great height -- great pictures -- great family -- great fun! So happy your trip was enjoyable. I'm sure it's just the break Anne and Ken needed and you guys were just the "icing" on top.

We sure do have some cute grandkids!
