Pa-Poo's Father's Day Surprise
Meme had a wonderful idea about two weeks ago to surprise Pa-poo for Father's Day weekend with a visit from Ellie and I. The plan was a success, we flew in to Baltimore on Saturday morning unannounced and surprised him when he came home from Margie's kayaking. We were able to stay until Tuesday but we did make the most out of the three day visit!!Ellie smiling on Sunday morning while she was "helping" Pa-poo hose off the patio. The question is what got hosed off more, Ellie or the patio??
Ellie and Aunt Margaret watching from a distance.
See, big girls are a big help!!
Who says that drinking water from the hose is bad? I say it builds character!!
Time to stop and smell the lavender.
Happy Father's Day Pa-poo, I love you!!
Hanging out with Uncle Sean out on the patio.
Ellie and Uncle Ronnie at the Father's Day cook-out.
Ellie and Aunt Marg playing around before bedtime.
Dan, Erin, Kelly, and Uncle Ronnie with Ellie at our last minute cook-out. What fun!!
Monday morning we went to the Baltimore National Aquarium, here is Ellie with cousin Andrew.
How cute, Andrew is definatly a lover and not a fighter. He kept trying to hold Ellie's hand, give her kisses and hugs but she was having none of that!!
Ellie admiring the turtles.
Looks like Andrew is trying to give the turtles a hug. See, I told you, he is a lover!
Ellie looking all bashful in the rainforest exhibit.
Ellie and I (Meme off to the side) pause for a picture under a great white shark.
Here we all are on our fun day trip... Meme, MB, Ellie, Andrew, Lisa, and Aunt Angela.
Pushing buttons to make the frogs croak.
The dolphin show was awesome!! I think that the kids liked that almost as much as the puffin exhibit (birds that could swim under water, aka- birds that can swim like fish... awesome!).
The show actually held both of their attention for the entire half hour even though they were both very ready for a nap.
Monday evening we played in the hose again on the patio. Yes, that is a nudie butt!!
Ellie playing with Meme's turtle.
Hey, look at me, I am nudie!!
Yummy, part of her breakfast on Tuesday morning, a cherry turnover. Even I can relax a little on vacation!
Ellie is going to pack up all of her stuff to get ready to head home to Schatzie and her own bed. Bye-bye Meme and Pa-poo, Margah and Sean, I love you!!
