As promised...
here are just a few of the MANY pictures taken
while Mom and Matthew were here.
We did a little of everything
and had a whole lot of fun...
My momma
My Booger
Elijah loves his Uncle Matty.
Dressing up in Shawn's hat
(thought he was super cool)
Played basketball with the boys.
My boys (minus the hubbs):
Matthew, (Hannah), Shawn, Uncle Dave, E
We went to the beach.
Elijah liked to be outside,
loved the water,
HATED the sand.
(what can I say, he is my kid)
We were able to capture a few cute pics
before the sand meltdown
where E got sand everywhere
(and I do mean everywhere)
and freaked out right there on the beach.
I thought he had stepped on a jelly fish
as they were everywhere.
But alas, once washed off and sand free
he was as happy as could be.
Needless to say,
beach trip was short
and we won't be having another one
anytime soon.
We went to the Science Center.
Elijah LOVED it there!
Here's Mom, E and Matty brewing up some trouble.
Digging for dinosaur bones
Playing with the boats in the water center.
Nearly had to drag him away from this
kicking and screaming.
Me and my love E in front of the fish.
(included "Bebo" - Nemo)
We went to Downtown Disney
(the free version we use to get our Disney fix)
Elijah got to "meet" his idol -
Buzz Lightyear!
He was so super excited!
Grandma took him on the merry-go-round.
Matthew wanted Mac-n-Cheese Pizza...
Yup, that's pizza with macaroni and cheese on top.
It was surprisingly DELICIOUS :)
And we took him out for ice cream to celebrate his good grades.
Keep up the good work kid!
To finish off we had a barbecue with most of the family
and celebrated lots of birthdays.
It was a fantastic week
and we were so thankful for some time
with our much missed family!
