Our trip to VA was an absolute blast! It was busy, fun, eventful and perfect! The weather couldn't have possibly been any better. We decided to leave Wednesday night instead of Thursday afternoon, and we're so glad that we did. Eli was a trooper on the ride, although he didn't sleep very much. We were very thankful that we had borrowed a portable DVD player from some friends. I think he watched at least 8 Baby Einstein videos on the way down, and maybe even more on the way home! We had such a great time with family and friends, and really took advantage of our time together.
Good thing daddy didn't see Eli trying on Mimi's wedding shoes :)
She was an absolutely stunning bride!
We're very excited about our new siblings

We tried to get a good family beach picture, but it was a little too windy out back.
Eli is walking really well now, and everyone was amazed to see him getting around so well. Surprisingly, he only took one fall during the entire trip, and it just happened to be during the toasts at the reception! He face planted and hit mouth first, and busted his lip pretty good. Danny ran out of the room with him so fast that I didn't even realize that blood was streaming from his mouth. After about 5 minutes and having to shed his precious white vest, he was back to his happy self. He was quite the ham at the reception, and was happiest while on the dance floor! He danced, posed, and danced some more.
He clapped his little hands to the music all night long. It was too cute!
One of the many highlights of the reception was definitely Cindy and her dance moves! She's so carefree, and really knows how to have a good time! This is her showing off my favorite - the air guitar! She would occasionally go back to the table and prop her feet up on the chair beside hers. After a brief rest, she would be right back at it!
Today I am exhausted and having a hard time getting back to the normal swing of things. Eli is unusually fussy and making it known that he would much rather be back at his Mimi's house! We can't wait for mom and Tom to come for a quick visit next month before their move to Corpus Christi. Thankfully, they'll be here the week of Eli's birthday!
I have way too many pictures to sort through, and I'm way too scatter brained to finish blogging today! I have several posts coming up though, with many pictures to follow!
