Visitors from Down Under

In November, my sister-in-law Melanie and my adorable niece Cecilia came from Australia to visit us.  They stayed with us for a week and a half before taking a train to Chicago for a few days.  My brother flew in to Chicago and then they all came back to St. Louis for a couple weeks (which included Thanksgiving).  Here are some pictures from their stay with us.

Charlie was excited to have someone else his size around.
 Peek-a-boo!

This play house belonged to my cousins when they were little.  They are now in their junior and senior years of college.  Each of our boys has greatly enjoyed playing in it, too!  Charlie and Cecilia were talking to each other through the window.

There are not a lot of fallen leaves in Australia.  Clearly Cecilia did not know what to do with them.  I don't think they tasted that great.  We let Uncle Jim rake them into piles so we could play in them.  


We went to Jack's last soccer game of the season.  Nana and Papa came, too.
Jack is waving to his fans.
