Elijah

Elijah (the blond on the right) is 8 years old. He is Barb's oldest son. When it was his turn to spend time with Aunt Betty he wanted his cousin Flynn to go too. They chose to eat Mexican so we went to my favorite restaurant, El Canaveral.

It was funny listening to these two carry on a conversation. They were talking about the TV and trying to figure out what the people were saying since it was in Spanish.

Kids love cheese dip & salsa!! When it came time to order I asked what they wanted. Flynn being here several times knew he wanted.... a taco with cheese and meat. Elijah said, "I'll eat the same thing!" He is so sweet! They enjoyed those tacos!! Oh, and the pepsi that I allowed them to get. Shhh don't tell the moms!


After lunch we went back to my house. They wanted to go "workout" in my workout room. Then they wanted to watch a movie...Over the Hedge.....I told them that there were pops in the freezer. They were skinny cow pops but ice cream pops none the less....they had 2 each.

While they were watching the movie Flynn pulled his tooth out. Then lost it. Elijah & I were looking for it while Flynn was trying to stop the blood. We found the tooth and put it in a baggie.

Here is the new smile!! I love the way Elijah has his arm around his favorite cousin. That shows how sweet this little boy is. He has the sweetest demeanor and is sweet like that to everyone! He also gives the best hugs and has since he was little.


There friendship as cousins picks right back up like they haven't been apart. These two will always remain close.

It was fun having these two for a few hours. It was a very memorable day!

How cute. I bet that is fun to listen to boy conversations after having girls. They are some cute kids. Love the "new" smile.

This is how Ashley, Scott and Keith always were growing up, especially Ashley and Scott since they spent more time together. Nell
