Sunday

Riley and I did a whole lot of scooping/snow pushing on Sunday so they could…

ride back and forth and pretend they were Captain Hook and Peter Pan.  I was given the role of Tinkerbell and had to protect my pixie dust from Hook.  And then I made them take naps.

Brody needed to rock.  It’s rare he asks, so I swept him right up and had him to sleep shortly there after!

The randoms that = last week

Riley is still a collector.  I pulled this all out of the washing machine.  He used to think any money in his pocket to jingle around was great, but now he is a bit of a snob and quarters are the only coin he collects
We made sugar cookies for Valentine's Day.  The boys collected the small scraps and made their own cookies.  It kept them busy the entire time I baked the cookies and cleaned up.  At some point, I looked over at Riley and he was about to put some dough in his mouth.  I reminded him we don't eat dough.  A couple minutes later, I caught him chewing something.  He told me he only pretended to eat the dough as he sat their and chewed! 
Uncle Jesse came for a quick visit before he headed out on tour again.
Harper, Cohen and Michelle came for a visit over the weekend. 
Saturday was Eagle Day at Lake Shelbyville.  The program was a tad too long for our group, but those that lasted the whole time got to see a red tail hawk, golden eagle, bald eagle and an owl.  The owl actually flew from one end of the room to the other and completely mesmerized some little boys. 
As a side note, Riley refers to Lake Shelbyville as Lakewood, which is not to be confused with the farm at Lakewood.  Definitely have to be on your a-game when having a conversation with him!
A bashful Mr. Eli.

And then our week was over.  The end.

DayEight:Disney - Flying Home

The day had arrived for us to head home.  We started our journey at some early hour in the morning.  Disney delivered us to the airport with plenty of time to spare so the boys had time to eat breakfast, walk the terminal and watch airplanes.  Riley slept most of the flight home and Brody stayed awake long enough to get juice from the flight attendant and to use the restroom on the plane.  It seemed we were on the ground in Indy in no time and 3/4 of us slept most of the drive home!  Although we were sad to leave the most magical place on earth and be back in the cold weather, the boys were most definitely excited to be reunited with their toys and we were all happy to be back in our beds.  

And that, my friends, was Disney2013!

DaySeven:Disney - Downtown Disney

Our last evening at Disney was spent at Downtown Disney.  We could have went to the Lego store daily and built little men and cars and what not.  They both LOVED it!  Riley has a love for collecting little things and shoving them in his pockets.  We are proud to report that he kept all little pieces out of his pockets and on the table!  
Before we left Downtown Disney, they picked out new head gear.  Brody chose a Goofy hat, which he had eyed since the day we arrived and Riley picked out a glow in the dark Buzz Lightyear hat.  
We snuck in one last viewing of the Epcot fireworks from the balcony before it was time to settle in for a short night of sleep.
