TS walk and the Circus!

We had a great weekend with Aunt Liz, Uncle Nick and cousins Brandon and Annika in town. Hudson loved having some kids here all weekend to play. On Saturday, we participated in the Walk against Tuberous Sclerosis for our friend Kierstin. Depsite the really rainy weather, the walk was a huge success and raised more than $41,000! Hudson especially enjoyed the good puddles the rain left and even tried to swim a few times in the swimming pools filled with ice and drinks!

Then on Saturday night, we went to the Ringling Brothers Circus. Everyone had a great time. Two of the kids enjoyed watching it and the other one enjoyed running up and down the stairs and enjoyed trying to escape through the crowds giggling all the way as we chased him. He did sit there for about half and hour and loved the lights and fireworks. Each time an "event" stopped he would look up and John and me and sign "more" and "please" until it would start again.

We had a fun time with the cousins and look forward to seeing them in Colorado for Christmas. This week we are here for a few days, then are heading to St Louis for Uncle Evan and Aunt Lyndi's wedding!

Hudson shared his crackers with his friends so decided to eat the hummus with a few spoons....
