The new hang out spot

So it all started this morning. I was doing stuff in the kitchen (you know the stuff moms do!), and it was pretty quiet so I thought I'd check on Macey. As I went into the living room I saw that she was just sitting on the stairs playing with a little car, and was happy as could be. She ran around a bit, but always heads back to the stairs.

Slowly she starts collecting things and bringing them back to the stairs.

Here's her collection around 9:00 before we headed out to do somethings.

Later this afternoon she decided to head back to her new hang out spot and create more of a collection.

Some of the things you may not be able to tell she collected are a dryer sheet, Alan's sock, a fruit snack wrapper, a framed picture, her coat, a toy car, remote controls, and of course her car and stroller. Who knew how much fun the stairs could be?

Maybe we should enter her in an eating contest!

This girl can eat like no other. The other day we had pancakes. She ate 2 and I ate 2 1/2 and was stuffed.Her favorite food is banana, she's the fastest banana eater I've ever seen.

She also loves goldfish. When I'm making dinner I'll set some goldfish out on this stool, and Macey loves to sit on it like a little desk and eat away.

Sundays at the Blair's

Most Sundays we go to my parents house for dinner and games. Now that it's warmer out we've started up our croquet tournament. We love it.

Macey loves Grandpa.

Sometimes our croquet game can get a little tricky.

I'm feeling a bit guilty!

The next Sunday we were back we had a talk in church on Pride. It seems that bragging (gloating) about things is a bit prideful. Please forgive me for "Gloating" about our cruise. (But IT was awesome, not me of course!)

Jogging stroller/ Bike Trailer

So were looking for a jogging stroller/bike trailer that can collapse down to be put in a car, and that is not super expensive. Anyone have any suggestions on where we can find one?

Time to Gloat

Alas, we are back from our cruise. I'd have to say it was my favorite vacation ever. Yes it's a big statement, but I do believe it's true! I'd highly recommend a cruise to anyone interested. We were gone for a week, and left Macey with my parents. We weren't too worried since Macey LOVES my mom...quite possibly more then us!

We went with my sister Kari and her husband Todd and had such a fun time hanging out with them. Our boat was called the "Freedom of the Seas" and was amazing. It had rock climbing, mini golf, a surf machine, ice skating rink, ping pong, a huge theater, and many other awesome things. The places we stopped at were Haiti, Jamaica, and Grand Cayman. Below are a bunch of pictures of all we did.

This is Alan and I on the "Flow rider"

In Haiti we hung out on the beach a lot...as you can tell from Al's feet we should have used more sunscreen.

In Jamaica we hiked up some waterfalls.

This dude sang us a song

This is a view of Jamaica from a plantation

I just think this picture is funny, 'cause Alan looks like a Giant.

Amy thanks for letting us borrow your cute dresses for formal night

Warm weather, Beaches, and Lots of food...here we come!

Did I mention Alan and I are going on a cruise to the Caribbean? We can't wait!
