Nephews in Princeton!

Last Sunday, my brother John and his kiddos came out to Princeton to spend the afternoon with me! Jill was off to a conference and this was a good chance to give John an extra hand with these three boys.

We got take-out lunch at the Italian Market and ate in my apartment, then we walked around Princeton, stopping at Labyrinth books, Starbucks, The University Store and Twist. Nathaniel and Emerson picked out some great books at Labyrinth and Sebastian picked out a little stuffed tiger at the University Store. He promptly named it "Whiskey"! You can see him holding Whiskey in the photo above. John got his afternoon coffee at Starbucks and the kiddos and I got frozen yogurt and fun toppings at Twist - and all of this within two blocks of my house! It's fun living downtown.

After our walk about town, we drove over to a great playground that's around the corner from my old house. These guys are old pros at this playground and had a great time on the roller slide and the tire swing!

It was a nice day, maybe a little chilly, but they didn't seem to mind. It's always a fun change of pace to host these guys for an afternoon.

I love the nephew pics! Seeing them on your blog is fun, since seeing them on your camera was only so big. It is amazing how big the three of them are getting!!! So glad you can take advantage of seeing them as you live so close. :)

Great to see images to go along with your description of the day. They are fortunate to have Aunt Beth in their lives and downtown Princeton is cool!
