Calebs Birthday

We got back from our cruise Sunday morning at 10:30. After everyone opened their souvenir presents, Mike and I layed down for a short nap.
Then we were off to Chuck E. Cheese for Caleb's 4th birthday.
Caleb could hardly eat his pizza in anticipation of his cake. Of which he only ate the frosting. We also had Michelle, Elektra, and Christina's boyfriend Robbie with us. He is becoming a fixture around the house lately. Believe it or not, Caleb LOVES to open cards. This plane he got from Grumpa and Gramma. You pump it with air, and it flies. Boy does it ever fly. The first time we flew it, it ended up in our neighbors across the street bushes. Later on it hit another neighbors roof and landed in their bushes. I think we need to take it to a BIG grassy park. Nice wrapping! Took 4 of us to open the box!! Duct tape....Must be a BROWN boy thing. He got a hat (and other stuff) from Mama Ginny and Papa Bill. He got this truck, and then didn't want to play the games any longer. So Zachary and Daddy played games. Zachary learned how to throw the ball into the 100,000 pt. He made it a dozen times! A close up of Elektra. She is such the best baby I have ever seen. She is always smiling, and lets Mike or I hold her without fussing! In fact she would walk up to us and reach her arms up to be picked up! We miss her around our house. Unfortunately Michelle ended up getting the crud that we had. So after we got back she layed down for awhile. Which meant we were left to play with Elektra! Yeah! She only started fussy when it had gotten late and she was pretty tired. I tried holding her and walking her, but after a minute Mike took her, and instantly she stopped crying. Must be a height thing. On Monday late afternoon Michelle was feeling a little better so we decided to meet Mike at Cocoa Beach for dinner. (He was working about 2 hours south of it). I was nervous about driving because the farthest I have been by myself is only 20 minutes away. But not only did i do OK driving there, I found the pier that Mike and I had looked for several times last summer. We always ended up to far north or south. Now we know exactly where to go!!
I don't have any pictures tho because by the time we got there it was dark. Too bad. Well at least Michelle and Elektra can say they dipped their fingers in the Atlantic Ocean, even if they couldn't see it very well.
Michelle and Elektra flew home on Tuesday.
*Thank you for coming out and saving our vacation! Sorry you got sick in the process.*
