Blue vs Yellow

This is Genevieve.

She's on her Dad's team.

They create a plan.

To make many touchdowns.

To pull many flags.

And to stay out of harms way.

Part of their plan failed.

She got hurt.

But it didn't stop her.

The end.

Oh, how I miss this family!

Genevieve and I flew out to Illinois for Tommy's baptism.

I loved meeting this cute girl for the first time.
And seeing this fun fella again! He became Genevieve's best friend! They played so well together.

I loved watching the love this family has for one another.

It rained the first two days while we were there.

We were so grateful for the sun we received after that. We headed right over to the park to enjoy the beautiful weather.

Joe - 3 years old

Spencer- 5 years old

Genevieve - 3 years old

This post is a little out of order, but I have no desire to fix it.

We left Vegas at 1:40am! This girl was so excited to go on her first airplane ride. The plane was driving over to the runway and she kept asking, "Are we flying?".... "Are we flying right now?"

I'm pretty sure she was out right after take off and slept the whole 3 1/2 hour flight. If we add that to the hour she slept in the car to the airport....that's a total of 4 1/2 hours of sleep for this 3 year old. We took a long nap that afternoon.

I was so glad that my mom came too. It was fun bunking with her and getting silly with her. You see, we were so sleep deprived that everything was funny. She had me in tears laughing a few times.

Grandma let Joe and Genevieve do her hair.

She listened to Tommy read.

And she helped Spencer climb a tree.

We were glad that we had the chance to watch Tommy and Spencer play baseball.

Tommy played really well with Genevieve.

We spent one day at a huge zoo. These geese made our day!

I've never seen a giraffe lick a tree.

It was sad saying goodbye. We sure enjoyed out visit!

Disney Cruise Day Six

Our last full day on the cruise was full. We made sure to fit in all that we could possibly fit in.

We were up at 8:15 and quickly got ready for our Character Breakfast. Our servers made us silly napkin hats to wear. I've got Daisey Ducks bow and Wayne's Goofy.

Then we went to the lab for "Gases in Action" for the boys. Genevieve played on the computer and made a bracelet in the lab.

After the lab we went down to learn how to make origami frogs.

We had one last chance to see all the princess'.
Genevieve only likes them from a distance.

She became very clingy.

We spent some time sun bathing, swimming, and playing in the arcade one last time before it was time to pack up all our stuff and head down for our show.

So, the ocean was VERY rough on our last day. I loved all the movement! It was soooo fun walking on the front of the boat and jumping while we rocked down. It felt like we were totally floating. Amazing!

I was amazed that these performers were able to dance with all that rocking. The fella below was even able to balance 6 chairs on his chin. So cool!

You see the fireworks in the background? Very impressive!

At dinner we were kept entertained by our servers. Emma made Genevieve a flower out of the kids menu.

While Putu made butter disappear.

Look! Hayden's awake!

Hayd and Gav were doing their best to make their butter disappear.

While Ty tried making his Chicken disappear.....

He threw it over his head and said, "Ta Da!"

Hayden may have made it to dessert, but Genevieve didn't.

Baked Alaska.....yuuuummmm!

Then it was time to say goodbye to our servers. We sure did love them!

The end!

Whew, I finally finished!

Next post? My trip to Illinois with Genevieve.
