A Visit from the Wellses

When the Wells family came over on Sunday we all headed outside to take advantage of the sunny afternoon and the freshly mowed lawn.

As with any trip outside Matthew feels the need to put every thing in his mouth. If you look closer you can see the grass on his shirt, the dirt around his mouth and the flower in his hand oh and the booger, lets not forget the booger. All three plus additional material not pictured here had already been in his mouth. And this was all before the run in with the bird bath.

Hey Elliot, give us a smile. Wait for it!

Ah ha, there it is. (there was an even better one but it was out of focus)

Elliot made sure that Aaron had done a thorough job of the lawn mowing.

Dude get out of my way, I'm trying to clean up all the spots you missed earlier.

Matthew found Elliot mid pass and grabbed a quick hug.

Later when Elliot had less room to maneuver, Matthew snagged a kiss!

Parents will know that there is constant kid wrangling to be done at this age.

More kid wrangling.

A little perspective.

After fixing up the lawn, Elliot thought he would go for a cruise on the quad.

This one also needs a closer look. Here you can see the results of the run in with the bird bath.

Matthew took the quad for a spin.

As the afternoon drew to a close, it just seemed easier to lie on the ground than to bother crying for someone to come help. I think we all felt the same way. Thanks so much for coming down for a visit we had a great time!
