My blog has been very busy lately with important news like toenail art, men in trees, Eli coming home, morale boosting, political game shows, and spies. Because of that, I haven’t just put up many family pictures lately. So, lest I get kicked out of the “Mommy Blog” club, This is just a simple post of pictures and snippets from our weekend.
Ali was IN LOVE with her Daddy all weekend – attached to the hip!! Here are some pictures of the two of them at Esther’s beautiful wedding:
However, I’m pretty sure she still loves Mommy, too :)
The whole family!
The beautiful bride and her groom:
Ali and Pop!
Ali and Pop!
And Ali and Nick!!

Ali went home with Gramamma and Pop after the wedding, and Chris and I had an AWESOME date. Isn’t it amazing how going to a wedding can totally rekindle romance?? It was a great date of reconnecting and feeling lovey-dovey-newlyweddy :)
Today after church, we had lunch at our house. Eli’s first outing! (I think). It was great to have him as a part of our family lunch!
Sleeping soundly:

Eli cuddling with Mommy:
“But Gramamma, you belong to ME!”
“But Gramamma, you belong to ME!”
Calling all her friends to tell them about her new cousin stealing her Gramamma.
“AJ! Help!!”
Eli Hangin’ out again:
Daddy had to get some work done this evening. You can see how everyone left him alone so that he could get it done!
Oreo is ALWAYS jumping onto his drawings. This time, he had two people that kept wanting on them. Ali kept saying “up!”, and she did NOT want to get off of Daddy’s drawings. But luckily he was able to finish up after her bedtime :)
