Early in October after listening to weeks of Shannon asking me to come see her because I'm her favorite and so wonderful, pretty, and fun...and well the list goes on. I called Ian and asked if I could come surprise Shannon in early November. Hardest secret I have ever kept, I could hardly talk to Shannon because I didn't want to spill the beans!! But after a long awaited month I showed up on her door (thanks to Ian's plan of a "package arriving") and got just the reaction I expected, something along the lines of. "Shut up you are NOT here!!!!" haha It was so fun! Here's the picture Weston took within the first minute of me being there... thanks for the cabbage patch face Shan!So luckily Shannon had already planned a fun weekend for the kids and I got to tag along!! We watched movies, talked, napped and had some good ol' sister time!
The boys obviously don't listen to their Auntie Mel very well when she says, " OK smile at Auntie Mel!!" Because this is what I got 90% of the time... thanks boys! ha
I loved all the monkey's, they were so stinkin' funny especially the ones that reminded us of mommy dearest! (***Video on Shannon's Blog***) This is my signature monkey face!!
I told Weston to stick his head in the Lion's mouth and Davin wanted to give it a try... Does he look scared?! HA They were seriously so funny this last trip!
Here's our brave lion tamer!!! He's getting so big and fun to talk to. I'm so glad I was able to drive down and that my whole family of women could keep it a secret!! I love you Shannon and I'm glad you are only a few hours away from me and congratulations on delivering the most beautiful baby girl, we love you tons!
