Our Vacation: Glimpse One.

Day One. Ben's birthday. He took the boys for donuts and then hit up Liberty Market and Joe's Farm Grill for his free birthday yummies. We stopped off at my mom's to say ADIOS ... and we were on the road. FOR. A. LONG. TIME.

Day Two. Mother's Day.
Eli started the day making sure Uncle Robert knew the names of his 900 cars. And for the record, Uncle Robert did a remarkable job ... he is soon to be the uncle to 5 nephews (his sister has one boy and is having twin boys any week now) and one soon to be born niece ... so I guess it's only natural for him to know his toy facts.
Then .... it was LegoLand ticket ordering time. Season passes. All the LegoLand you want for an entire year. And ... all the SeaLife aquarium (they just opened a new one at Az Mills). I'm pretty sure J How's face says it all!
We jetted over to LL and apparently left Eli in the car and brought along this GQ boy. (There are about 10 pictures of him strutting his stuff, hands in pockets. I'm making a montage).
We soaked stuff.
And roared.
And generally did everything possible to get our wiggles out.
But my favorite of the day was How. Going to the Jr. Driving School. Confident he was going to win the race. The other kids didn't know what hit them. They were thinking leisurely drive at an amusement park. Not so much. How lapped them all and then do you see this sweet girl to his right? He got right up beside her .... stared her down and said, "SEE YOU LATER!" And left her in the dust. Let's just say I'm not worried about How sweeping a girl off her feet anytime soon ...
