The Mountains

What a day!!

Mom and I got up this morning and immediately got ready to leave. I didn't even get to watch Moose and Zee!! Mom said we had to go because I slept late and we were late. For what?? I thought we were on vacation...

Well, we went to Aunt Mere's. Pretty soon after we got there, we got in her car and left. Aunt Mere, Mom, Colin, Brenna, and I were in the car for a long time. I took a nap. When I woke up, Mom said we had reached our destination. We were way up high near the sky. We were in the mountains. When Mom opened the car door, to my surprise, Uncle Brent was there!! Woo hoo!! I love playing with Uncle Brent! Grandmom, Granddad, Pete, and Helena were there too!! Oh boy! I knew this was going to be a fun day!

After I had a snack, I started playing. I played with Pete. I really wanted to play with his iPod. I was pretty sure I could play Angry Birds.

I played and played. I was having such a good time! Aunt Deborah showed up a little later. She had to run some errands this morning, so she wasn't there when we got there! As the people with lots of teeth were getting ready for lunch, I was getting tired. I took a really great nap on Helena's sleeping bag!

When I woke up from my nap, Aunt Mere rescued me from the room where I had been sleeping. I was glad to see that everyone was still there!

I was really hungry when I woke up, so Mom got my lunch ready and fed me. Peas and pears. Not very exciting, but satisfying. After lunch, I played with Uncle Brent some more.

Aunt Deborah took me out on the porch. I could see the big kids playing outside. I was pretty sure I wanted to be out there with them.

I had fun with Aunt Deborah. :)

Helena came inside and played with me. I think she thought we were having a staring contest. I definitely won. :)

Aunt Deborah came in and gave Mom a cookie. I was very interested in it. Aunt Deborah said it was called "koulourakia". Aunt Deborah's family is Greek and Mom says they make lots of yummy things like these cookies. I was very interested in this koulourakia cookie wookie thingy. So interested, in fact, that I took it right out of Mom's hand and ate it myself! Hahahaha!!! It was very yummy!

Pete had been trying to get me to sit with him all day, but I had been very squirmy. He was very happy when I finally sat with him for a bit. (I was quite taken aback by his choice of shirt, but I love him anyway.)

After lots of good times, it was time to come back home. We all loaded up and made the trip back down the mountain. We were in the car for a long time again. I took another nap. When we got back to Aunt Mere's, I had a snack and watched a movie called Toy Story with Brenna. Then Mom and I came home. I had dinner and got ready for bed.

Today was a great day! I had so much fun playing with my cousins and everybody else. I hope I get to see Uncle Brent, Aunt Deborah, Pete, and Helena again soon!!

Oh, and Mom says we will get my pictures back from Mrs. Erin tomorrow! I am loving this thing called Spring Break!!
