I was so happy last thursday when my sister called me and said that she was coming to visit me.. with my mom and my nephew of course. it was so much fun to have them here. I often wish that they lived much closer. I have posted a lot of pictures of their time here. we had a lot of fun. the first night they were here, we went to el porton. a favorite of the incoming guests and then the second day, bella let us use her pass to the zoo and we spent the day at the zoo. elijah is at such a fun age to do this. he enjoyed the whole zoo.. from the animals to the face paint. to the horsey ride, to the water all the way to the end. it was a blast. elly m. and ruthie got really tired from it...so we went home, put them to bed and went to costco. that night my mom and em. watched the girls while we went to a wedding reception alone. which is unheard of from jonathan and i. it was nice to be able to chat at the party without having to keep a close eye on our children. the next morning we got up early and headed to nashville. we dropped my mom off with her sister and we headed to the children's museum in nashville. it was perfect for someone elijah's age. so overstimulating for me though. that night we spent the night at my aunt's house and enjoyed relaxing in their sante fe home. it is really beautiful out there, but the most exciting thing i saw was a cow fight, so you can only imagine.. what it is like to entertain three small children in such a place. after that we drove back to memphis to the park/water fountains for kids. that night we wrapped up our evening with getting our butts kicked at scrabble by my mom. jonathan wants revenge though. then we ended our trip with a nice lunch at corky's.. i love you guys and can't wait until you come to visit again. it was so much fun.
