Aunt Michelle and Uncle Dean

Before Max was even born, he had already become the adopted nephew of two of our favorite people...Aunt Michelle who lives in Provo and Uncle Dean, who hails from Boston. This past week Max had the fortunate opportunity of hanging out with both of them. Max took his Aunt Michelle for a belated birthday lunch on Wednesday and caught up with her on all of life's adventures since we last saw her...we heard about her travels, her new friends, her marathon training, and her busy job! She in turn heard all about Max's new teeth, his new found vocabulary and mobility, and how much he loves his daddy and uncles. As Max and Mommy were perusing the new merchandise in Aunt Mickey's store, who should drop in but Uncle Dean, who had just flown in from Boston! What a party in was at the CC&F!

Then on Sunday Uncle Dean came to our house for Sunday dinner. Max was just a few months old the last time Uncle Dean was in town so he had to show off all his new skills. Uncle Dean was so nice and brought him a new pair of PJ's and a BYU basketball. The PJ's were of course sporting the baseballs and bats as Uncle Dean has high hopes of Max being a "lefty" and making it big in the MLB.

Even though Max has 12 biological Aunts and Uncles, we couldn't be happier that these two are a part of our son's life. How lucky he is and how fortunate we are to have such great friends!
