Although we never did find a Delaware speaking woman...

Our very dear friends Greg and Amelia came to visit us this weekend, ostensibly to watch Matt play ball; in reality they came to spoil him rotten. Matt, although he hadn't seen them in over a year, took to them immediately and totally. The fact that they came bearing Lincoln Logs and an eighteen-wheeler truck didn't hurt. He had a little trouble with the names, occasionally calling Amelia "Uncle Robin," but other than that, the three of them had a wonderful time together.

Since this was Greg and Amelia's first visit to Kentucky, we decided to take them to Cumberland Falls, the Niagara of the South. It's a beautiful park with an easy walk out to the falls, which was good, since Greg arrived for the weekend with a pretty nasty leg injury and a cane. Matt was bothered by the cane at first, but once Greg explained that it was a "boo-boo stick" to help him walk, all was well.

We got some nice pictures - Matt loves to be outside and explore, and was happy to sit in the big hole in this rock and pose.

And of course I pestered a stranger to take one of all of us:


We had a great weekend - pizza, board games, house hunting, and lots and lots of Lincoln Logs. We can't wait to go visit them in North Carolina, hopefully in the fall.
