Family Reunion

Over July 4th, we loaded up and headed to Little Rock, Arkansas for a family reunion with my dad’s side of the family.  We use to see this side of the family twice a year, when I was growing up.  It is a lot harder these days, because everyone is married and has kids and live all over the states!  Half of the family hadn’t met the boys yet so I was super excited about seeing everyone and introducing them to our boys.  We left on Tuesday morning at, you guessed it, 5 AM!  It was a great trip and the boys handled it pretty well when mommy threw their schedule pretty much out the window. (No worries, we got right back in our schedule when we got home)

Surprisingly, the boys do pretty well when we all sleep in a hotel room together…

Graham

But as usual, the first night we stay any where new, Graham needs to adjust to where we are.  It’s always a looooooong night and he usually ends up in our bed, with me not sleeping!
