Successful Surprise

YAY! Mission Accomplished- we were able to successfully surprise Liz in Laramie for her college graduation. We've been telling her for months that we weren't going to make it-- but little did she know- we were coming! She came home to find us waiting in her house and her reaction was priceless! :)

We had a fabulous weekend with the Gerstner Family celebrating Liz's graduation and being together along with the bonus of Mothers Day breakfast with everyone before we had to leave! It was a really busy, pretty sleepless weekend for this mama, and quick but definitely wonderful trip!

We're so proud of Liz and loved getting to be together with Great grandma Gerstner, Grandma and Grandpa, Auntie Liz and the 3 of us for a fun weekend! Elijah did fantastic on his first plane ride! :) We were definitely nervous-- I really didn't want THAT kid who was screaming the whole flight and who others just look at and wish they'd shush up. haha! :) He didn't though! He did so great. Slept through part and played and jabbered through the second part. He draws a lot of attention from everyone around us- and we love showing him off!! He is a true joy, thats for sure. :)

A nice passenger offered to take our pic!
So happy Elijah was so well behaved! :)


What a goon--Love his facial expressions!
