I started my weekend out on Friday morning by hitting the road and heading to Michigan! My first stop was to get some lunch with my grandma before heading to visit with my cousins.
I got in some baby practice, mommy talk, and just some quality with my second cousins! It's crazy to think that in a year from now my baby will be a month older than Sherman is now. I can't believe this big boy was this same little baby I saw back in December- oh how time moves so fast!
I had a great time visiting, but I needed to make sure I got my rest because I had a very long trip a head of me on Saturday. The whole reason for this trip was for my grandma to get a chance to visit with her sister Alice who now lives in Ohio.
My aunt Alice (in the red) is my grandma's only living sibling, so it was the least I could do. Plus, aunt Alice has always been a awesome great aunt. She was nice enough to host my high school graduation party at her house- which was 10 years ago this year.
The trip was 4 hours there & 4 hours back... so like I said- there was a lot of driving this weekend. While on the trip we made a few stops and picked up some "Ohio themed" candy to bring to aunt Alice.
I'm happy to report that trip went really well. There wasn't much traffic and the road construction wasn't too bad to deal with. Grandma got to spend about hour and half with her sister before we needed to hit the road again so we could make it home before it got dark.
Come Sunday, I was greeted by some cute fuzzy faces before I headed off for a 3.2 mile walk with my cousin Anna and her parents. After our walk, we got ready and were off to church.
After church I was treated to a really nice family dinner before I hit the road again back to Illinois.
Finally, that brings us to today- which has been filled with some shopping, steak dinner, and spending some time hanging out with my sister in my "cool" tub.
All and all- it was a great weekend. I love getting spend time with my family which makes the driving (and gas) totally worth it!
