More holiday photos

Back again with some more pics from the vacation. We also thought we would share some "Micah & Elijah-ISMS" with you that happened on the trip...
After a long, hot, busy day the Elijah was unusually wild and unfocused. I proceeded to tell him that if he kept running around and yelling he would get a time out or a spank. He responded with, "Mom, we are staying in a hotel and nobody wants to hear all that noise if you spank me."
After setting Micah up with his breakfast I asked him to stay seated so I could go to the buffet and get some food. He assured me he would be fine. As I was walking across the restaurant he yelled out " MOM! MOM! You can count on me mom!" he then gave me a thumbs up...
While cuddling the boys at bed time Elijah rolled over and said, "okay mom, you can go to your own bed now, you are TOO BIG."
Bless them, they are such a joy...

The Browns are BROWN!!

This pic was early in our arrival to Mexico... not too dark yet...Cooking in the sun...
Florida family photos...
The whole family!
Meet the Browns...

We are back from 3 glorious weeks away. We first spent some time in Florida suprising Robert's family and introducing Micah to his Auntie and cousin for the first time. A great time was had by all and although the weather was nothing great it was better than being home. Elijah caught his first fish, we did family photos (as you can see), the grandparents got to spend quality time with the grandboys, cousins bonded, shopping was done, etc.

Next we moved on to Cancun and we got to spend 11 glorious days there. Each day was a comfortable and sunny mid-80 day, and we loved it. Great resort, great people, great food, and the boys got great tans. Lots of pictures to share...
