Well this weekend was amazing.  One of my good friends from my photo forum invited us up to his parent places in Speculator NY.  We had a total of 9 adults and 4 kids there this weekend with the kids ages 9, 19, 22, and 28 months old.  The older three had a blast with each other which was fun to watch.  Elias was the only boy, but the girls LOVED his cars and trucks!  We shot Saturday morning, hiking panther mountain at lunchtime and then the boys went out to shoot the sunset in a gorge with an awesome river.  We returned to a great dinner and had a wonderful evening hanging out.  Today was a bit of a washout photographically, but we had a great pancake breakfast before heading home.  Elias slept the entire way up, but only an hour on the way home.  He did quite well though as it was a 5:30 drive home (with the lunch stop) and he didn’t cry at all.

The earlier pictures in this group are from the dinner we had at our house last weekend.  Sue (another NSOP member) wanted to go to the zoo last weekend so she met me and Elias there when Nikki was at a work outing.  She also offered to cook some of her native Indian food for us on our grill so we Had Sue, Matt, Leah, Lily, Elias and Nikki for that mini meat with amazing food.  So two weekends in a row we’ve had NSOP meets which has been a ton of fun!
