All the Way from Minnesota

This past weekend Patrick's "work spouse" from grad school, Caleb, and his wife, Christina, came to visit all the way from Minnesota. We went to the historic downtown of Manassas for lunch and then did part of a walking tour of the Manassas battlefield.

She thinks the information is entertaining

Madeline enjoyed the walk too!

Amelia took right to the cannons

But was not a fan of sharing her cannon with Madeline

Is a cannonball or Madeline more dangerous?

We LOVE playing Settlers with the Funks and were determined to do so, using the kiddos as a resource :) In the end, Caleb won. We officially challenge them to a rematch during our next visit.

Caleb & Christina watched Amelia while we went out and also let us get some housework done. It was great!

Caleb & Madeline showed us all the tricks that can be done with wood floors and a 14 month old. 

Thanks Funks for coming to visit! We hope it won't be long until we see you soon!
