This weekend, well just Friday, we drove to Indiana for a Vow Renewal. I was a little nervous about the drive - two kids and all. Thinking that Kaitrin would be more relaxed, we turned her car seat around so that she could see everyone and the DVD player. Wouldn't ya know the little stinker slept the whole way out on Friday and the whole way back on Saturday!
The Vow Renewal was just beautiful. Mike's brother and wife have been married for 20 years. My father-in-law performed the service, their kids were a part of the ceremony, old pictures and new pictures were everywhere...just a perfect evening to celebrate their marriage. And as most of you that know me...I am a total cry baby, so my helpful daughter escaped many times to let mom work around the tears.
Kaitrin was almost infatuated with the stairs in the Hall that we were in. She just couldn't get enough of climbing up and down the stairs...to the tune of about 23! And this was no crawling matter...oh, no...we went total big girl! There was handrail holding, mommy hand holding, and announcing every step with a "sep, sep". She was just a little stair climbing fool...which also had her sleeping by 8:00, but who was really paying attention?
Jacob was most thrilled about the hotel having a pool and going out to IHOP for breakfast. Issue number 1 - pool was outside. Now, had Mike's family lived in Florida...no issue, but Indiana was a big 'not so much'. Issues number 2 - all he wanted was pancakes. After some convincing, he decided that going to Uncle Gary's party might be cool, and the mass amount of Jelly Bellys didn't hurt either...thanks Gary!
