Memorial Day Weekend 2010


Poppy showing the grandbabies dinner :)
Ella was fascinated and got a tad upset when Poppy threw them in the boiling water!

I know these are a tad out of order but I am trying to catch up :)  Over Memorial day weekend we went back "home" to Beaumont to visit Oma and Poppy, Heather and Dave and their kiddos (most recently added James!!).  We left at 4:15 am saturday morning and surprisingly had a nice, quiet trip.  Ella slept like a champ until we were just east of Houston, so we stopped at McD's for some breakfast and a Mc-bellyache.  We made to Oma's about 10-ish and Ella couldn't wait to see her cousins.  It is so cool that she has reached an age that they can play together and she has so much fun hanging out with the "big Emma and big Anna" ... just wants to be one of the girls :)  Ella was itching to get her hot little hands on James so I played defense most of the weekend and didn't get a chance for baby snuggles either .... womp womp.  But it was so good to see him and I am excited that Ella still has a fascination with wee ones (we will see if this lasts when Tess gets here!).  On sunday we had a crawfish boil (yummy!!) ... how I miss a good crawfish boil!  Ella wouldn't try it at all, but she did steal 2 off my plate to keep as pets.  She got quite upset when they later "disappeared" ... delish!


I will call him fishie and he will be mine!

The cousins (most of them anyway) swimming in Oma's tub after we
had to get out of the pool due to thunder!



What a good trip we had .... crawfish, family time, swimming (in the pool and tub), and lots of play time for the cousins!!
