Again, the three amigos!

We had a wonderful visit with our friends from Minnesota, the Jaruszewski family! Travis and I met Joe and Cathy on our honeymoon 11 years ago in Jamaica and have been friends since! I remember Joe and Cathy wearing "bride and groom" baseball caps so I knew they had just gotten married, too. We ended up chit chatting with them immediately and instantly hit it off and had lots in common. It was great to have someone (Cathy) to compare wedding stories with and share the "post wedding blues" with, too! Cathy and I spent the week sharing stories of the wedding planning up to the big day and then realized they lived just minutes from my Aunt Diane in Minnesota! We then knew we would be able to keep in touch since we go to Minnesota once a year anyway! We had so much fun with them in Jamaica and spent our entire honeymoon with them enjoying the many sites of our trip! Over the last 11 years we have either traveled their way or they have come our way while keeping in touch and now 6 children later they are becoming friends! It is so fun to see our kids interact with each other and hopefully have long lasting friendships, too! We spent this past weekend catching up and showing off our new Sophie! I forgot how much Cathy loved babies and she took care of Sophie almost more than me! I felt like I was on vacation with Cathy taking her from me every second she could get her hands on her! We spent Saturday at the Roca Berry Farm Pumpkin Patch and all of the kids had a blast! The weather was a perfect fall day and the place was not crowded at all so the kids had the run of the place! Most of the rest of the weekend was filled with relaxation, food, fun, movies and most of all great conversation with our friends! Cameron and Charlie are already asking when we are going to Minnesota! We will for sure be planning a trip this upcoming summer!
