Guate and back again

We went home the last weekend in May to welcome home Matt - our favorite Guatemalan-missionary. 

 Yes, I did screen print t-shirts with Matt's giant head on it. Nothing says 'welcome home' like your silhouette on a neon yellow shirt....




There were lots of souvenirs to go around -- knives, bowls, nativities...all the staples. :-)



Playing some Just Dance. Work it.


Shaun the sheep break.

Took a walk down to the county club to throw rocks in. It wasn't great weather -- but it was nice enough to be outside here and there....






Ribs! This girls is really shy around meat...she obviously isn't ANYTHING like her dad....



Piano-time with second cousin Mylee. Those two had a great time together.



And a cuddle with Nana Niece.

summer days

A pic of our baby-baby girl....



Ellie napping -- Mike snagged a few cute pics of her snuggling with her blankets and lambie...




One of our favorite games -- Ellie loves to "surprise" me by knocking on the glass from the inside of the house while I am sitting outside....she cracks up every time.




We spent Memorial Day at a nearby pool with some cousins and friends - it was perfect - water and sun followed by a BBQ in the park.















Somebody playing dress up with diaper bag...those glasses ---- HOT.




we got to spend a few playdates with Maggie while her parents were packing away - we will miss them in Vegas!


We ended up dispensing with clothes as the temperature climbed...



Somebody was getting ready for her nap...
