Mike, Joni, and Miles in Budapest

Well, we have had back to back visits from family. Mike, Joni, and Miles arrived the night before Julie flew back to the states. It was fun to have them all here at the same time, even if it was just for an evening. We had an awesome time with Julie and would have loved to have her stay!

Dennis and I have seen some Budapest sights for the first time while out and about with Mike, Joni, and Miles. We took in a one-day trip to Vienna by train, and now we get to have some "Miles time" while Mike and Joni have some "just us" time in Rome. 

Some out and about photos, but mostly of Miles :).

A walk along the Danube to see the Jewish shoe memorial. 


 Cast iron shoes in honor of the Jewish victims shot into the Danube during World War II.
Miles loved watching for the tram to come down the tracks. This was the look on his face when he saw it coming.
On the train to Vienna.
I'll take these pigeons over Saint Stephan's Cathedral in Vienna any day!

Hi Gwen,
Love your pictures! I see you had some Gma time with Miles, that's wonderful. Taking in those historical sites must've been interesting, yet, some very sad.

What a blessing to have your family visit! Looks like Miles is enjoying his grandma and grandpa time! He is such an adorable boy! I love his eyes! Enjoy the rest of your time!!
