Eli had his second roadtrip to Willmar for Easter! He is so excited for trips to Willmar in the summer when he can play at the Lake! (So is Mama!)
Saturday, Eli and I hung out with my Mom and Sister.... running around town, getting things for dinner that night, etc. Nick got to Willmar that afternoon. My Grandma & Grandpa McLaughlin joined us for dinner...so Eli got some nice one-on-one time with them.
Sunday we went to my Aunt Ruth & Uncle Roger's where Eli got to meet the rest of the crazy Belgiums! This is my mother's family that I spent much time with growing up.... my Aunts are like an extra set of mothers/sisters... They are a very important part of my life. While most of my Aunts have already met Eli a couple times, my cousins had not... so it was a great opportunity for Eli to meet all my younger cousins who are very dear to me. Of course, it was also a treat for my Grandpa to have time with his Great-Grandson as well.
Eli is so blessed to be surrounded by so many family and friends that adore him. It means so much to Nick and I that Eli is loved and adorded so much by so many!
Kisses from Mom & Dad
Happy Birthday, Grandpa Tim!
