end of may

Nana and Uncle Ben (aka: uncle dee) came ALL the way out to visit us at the end of May! We still haven't stopped talking about how much fun we had with them here. In fact, Samuel reminds me multiple times per day about things he did with nana and uncle ben! We went and saw horse races, went to a baseball game, went to the zoo, and lots of other fun things! I only have pictures on our computer from the zoo...but i am gonna track down the other pics from Roxie so I can post them. There was something EXTREMELY special about this visit - I know we will cherish the memories from this time together for a long, long time!

Roxie and Ben went on a safari (is that the right terminology?) while Ben was in Africa - but even though they have held baby tigers, they still played along as we oohed and aahed at the confined animals at the zoo :) here is sammy imitating the elephants:

Samuel loooooooooves Uncle Ben. They became best buds over the week.

come on, this goat makes you smile. don't fight it. :)

the zoo also has a splash park

Nana treated us so we could go feed the birds. Samuel was so brave - he loved holding the cup of nectar by himself

We love you Nana and Uncle Ben! Thank you so much for coming to see us! We want you to come back! pu-pu-pu-pulease!?!?!? :)
