a visit to Burley

Jason finished his finals on Friday! Yay! With the need to celebrate, we headed to Jason's beloved homeland to visit our family for the weekend.  Jason and Beckham packed us up and off we went!

We were all so happy to be with our family, especially Beckham.  He was completely spoiled with attention!  He loved spending time with Aunt Jayme, Bumpa, and Nanna.
Beckham played and played and played!  There were so many fun toys to discover.  Such fun!  He was a huge fan of the rocking horse.  Looks like we may have a little cowboy at heart.
We took a few naps because playing can wear a boy out!  And, sometimes we didn't even make it to the bed and fell fast asleep right on the floor....
We all did a little work in the yard and Beckham helped by playing in the stroller. It was so, so beautiful outside. It was wonderful to be working out in the gorgeous weather. And, we made some progress in the yard. 
So bath time at Bumpa and Nanna's house is at least 10 times funner than at home. He LOVED it.  At one point he had goggles on and was swimming up and down the bathtub trying to stuff as many toys in his mouth as humanly possible.
We had our first grill of the season. Yum! 

We went to church, which was quite a battle with Beckham this week.  He would not be very reverent.  Nanna was the only one who was even able to get him to close his eyes for a few minutes to rest.  However, those blessed silent minutes did not last too long.  He just wanted to play!  Which we let him do outside after the meeting.
Thank goodness for a little get-a-way. We needed it before Jason started his summer semester on Monday. Thanks for a great weekend!
