Where Did We Go Last Weekend?

Welcome to the first of probably three posts documenting what we did last Saturday and Sunday. We had quite the adventure. The occasion was my Aunt Robin's wedding and it involved a 330 mile drive south.

We have seen Evie Lu's "go with the flow" attitude toward flying and I was glad to see it extend car trips. We only stopped twice during the six hour ride and Evie Lu took two great big naps. This meant she was well rested when we arrived to see my family. Evie Lu played for ages and loved seeing her Great Aunt Jody, Grandma Yvonne, and Cousins Ruby and Indigo.

I've often joked that the reason my family gets along so well is because we hardly ever see one another, but having Evie Lu has changed me. I want Evangeline to know my side of the family because they are really wonderful. And with all the complaining I've done about being far away from family I should remember just 330 miles away I've got flesh and blood.

Tune in Wednesday for details on the wedding and yours truly as the pastor.
