Blast from the past

A couple of weeks ago, one of my college roommates, Holly, came to visit with her youngest daughter Addie (10mo). Sadly Greta, her two yr old, didn't get to come. They live in Wisconsin - so we only see each other once a year. Carson and I had a great time with them -- and were so sad to see them leave. Holly's a professional photographer, so of course we got a Roberts family photo shoot in too -- I'll post those pics when Holly's finished touching them up (hide the pimple on Daniel's face, the drool on Carson's chin, and perhaps a tummy roll or two on mommy :)
I think one of the neatest parts of the whole trip was living with Holly in this new life phase. She's of course someone I normally associate with college (though by now, we've surely made just as many memories afterward), but as we push our babies in their highchairs around Blue Baker, in their strollers through Ben & Jerry's, and had to order freebirds to go b/c it was bedtime -- yes, all we did pretty much was eat -- it was a huge realization that we are grown up. I love being a grown up with my friends from college -- it makes me feel like I'm really going somewhere in life - and so are they. Anywho, this has been a long post, so here are some cutie pie pics of new friends:
