Long Weekend

What a fantastic long weekend. Wes and Darlene's old house got painted, so it was a big weekend for Alexander Family visiting. In fact, I learned that Grammie saw ALL 11 of her children over the course of the weekend. That's pretty amazing!

As you all know by now, Ed got his first moose on Wednesday afternoon. I do not have any digital photos, I guess Thomas will have to post the pictures of the moose parts on the Slumber Party blog (or not...)! But anyway, we're all proud of Ed and all the Glover Camp boys who were part of the "Moose Team"!

Thursday was a beautiful sunny, cold day. Elijah and I headed up to Glover to visit Darlene, Wes, Julie, Thomas and all the kids. We had a nice visit, and all played outside for a while.
The children all love Thomas. He's so FUN!
This trio of photographs of Darlene, Heather and Cole cracks me up! Notice Darlene and Heather smiling nicely at the camera. They look the same in every picture Cole, on the other hand, is being an absolute clown! What a personality!!!
Here are Julie and Thomas. Julie is wearing her old letterman's jacket from MMU. What a hoot!
Beautiful Estelle.

Estelle, Heather, Elijah, Sandy and Cole (Wayne was off running an errand with Wes).
Ed, Elijah and I went back up to Glover on Sunday so we could see Grammie. We all had a nice lunch together before the weekend painting crew left.

Julie, Cole, Lauren, Elijah, Chelsea, Estelle, Paul, Wayne and Lesley

Sounds like you all had a lovely weekend! I'm sure Elijah got lots of attention! It's great that you were all able to get together, I'm sure it doesn't happen often enough! Give Eli big kisses from us!

I plead guilty to looking at pictures of my cute baby cousins during class. Thanks, Sandy!

Sandy, it sounds like you had a wonderful week, in spite of all the work to do it alone, plus Elijah getting a cold. And I am so glad you got to be with all your family and old friends, and give all that lving support to your dad. It looks like Elijah really got lots of TLC from everyone!! Welcome home!!
