Memorial Weekend (Sunday&Monday)

Sunday was another fabulous day! We spent the day at Mike's parents house and Beth, Ken, Madeleine, John Paul, my mom and Jackie stopped by. We had a cook out for dinner and went swimming. The boys ended the day doing bubble with grandma. It is truly wonderful to be able to spend time with family. I love seeing the boys with their cousins. They are blessed to have cousins so close in age on both sides of our families. I know they will be close buddies growing up!!
I love my little family!

We got up Monday morning and packed the car. Beth and Ken came over with M and JP for breakfast so we got to see them all one more time and tell everyone goodbye. It was so hard to say goodbye even though I know we will see them all again in August. We had and interesting ride home. We got about 1 hour and 20 minutes into our trip and Eli threw up. Luckily it only got on him, butta, and little bit on his carseat. We pulled over at the next exit and got Eli changed and cleaned up as best as we could. Surprisingly Eli was ok with not having butta. I told him butta was dirty and Mommy would have to clean it when we got home and he was fine with that. We got back on the road and Eli was fine. With in 5 minutes he was asking for graham crackers. We told him we needed to give his tummy a little while to rest. We were going to try to make it til 11:30 before we stopped for lunch but we decided to stop at 11:00 instead because we hit a huge storm. It got windy so fast and just poured and poured. We actually sat in our car for 15 minutes until the rain let up a little. Eli had some apples and crackers for lunch and kept it down fine and was fine the rest of the day. We got back on the road and Eli was asleep in no time. I was worried that he would get upset because he didn't have butta but he was fine and we made it the rest of the way fine. It was a crazy trip home, but all worth it for the wonderful weekend we had. I already miss everyone and Eli is already asking to go back to Indiana!
