Happy Memorial Day!

There were so many great times had and fabulous photo opportunities this weekend, I don't even know where to begin this entry!! We took another one of our much loved road trips to NJ to visit the family and we all just had the best time! I'll break it down by day to share all of the unforgettable moments from the visit...

It all began Saturday, when we arrived at Mom-Mom's house... we started with a quiet lunch and play time with Zachary, awaiting everyone's arrival. Once the troops started to roll in, the energy definitely picked up, and the festivities really began.

Hailey and CJ just couldn't wait to see and play with Zachary... he's so lucky to have cousins that love him so much (and it's very obvious that he loves them right back, based on how he lights up every time he sees them)!!

Aunt Lynne brought over one of Hailey and CJ's old "jumper thingies" (from when they were babies) to keep at Mom-Mom's house, and boy did Zachary love it! It's like a 'swing on a spring' that you hang in a doorway. He was just so cute bouncing up and down... perfect for his little legs that are always kicking and jumping!

After the Goodmans arrived and got some love and kisses from the little guy (Grandma, Poppie and Great-Grandpa came to share in all the fun and food), we fired up the grill and had a wonderful picnic (though it was a bit too chilly to eat on the patio). After dinner, Len and I broke out our most recent favorite yard game - Baggo... it was a real hit! Zachary really enjoyed watching everyone have so much fun... he was very much into the competition and excitement (just like his Daddy)!

After the sun went down, it was time to feed Zachary his cereal (the first time everyone got to see it live and in person). Hailey even helped and gave him a few spoonfuls! Needless to say, Zachary was just POOPED after such a fun-filled and exciting day! THANK-YOU, Mom-Mom, for working so hard and making it such a nice day for all of us!!

(There is so much more to add... Sunday at the Goodmans and Monday at home were equally fun! But, it's late Monday night and I need to get everything ready for back-to-work tomorrow, so I'll continue editing this entry tomorrow night after Zachary goes to bed. Stay tuned!!)
