I found it!!!

Now, most people have asked us how Will did on our 8 hour trip in the car. The answer depends on which parent you ask :-) If you ask me, I say he did amazing. Especially on the drive up. He's potty trained and a boy so whenever he has a need for a potty break we just pull over and the side of the road makes the perfect aiming spot! We left around 7:30 at night and Will fell asleep around 10 and we drove until 1am so really, that was very smooth. The ride home, well Dave's answer may be more accurate, it was more difficult, but not because of behavior. The change in routine was hard on our poor baby's bowels. Anyway, we survived and it was so fun to see my family.

In Spencer we spent some time with my Dad's side. Will and my cousin Nelson always have fun together. Seriously, why couldn't he have picked a college closer to us?




Great Grandma Willie was pretty happy to see her only great grandchild.



My dad and Uncle Craig:



Will enjoyed my taco salad :)



Back at the house Nelson and Will continued their play:



Go, Daddy!





Yummy pretend apple:



Playing cards with Aunt Kathi: (I think they were hitting them when they turned face cards- he's almost ready for Vegas!)




After all of that fun we headed to see my mom's side of the family. We met a handful of them for dinner one night.

Cousin Emily and grandparents:



Dad and Cousin Paul:



With Aunt Lori visiting from California:


A very handsome couple, I think:

The next day was wedding day and 90% of my day this is what I looked like:




I will definately post some more photos of Ash's wedding as I get them done, but the rest are all from the reception. It was super fun. We set up a photo booth and it was a big hit and brought on BIG laughs.



Cousin Amber and hubby Clay:




My mom and 3/4 of her goofball siblings:





My FAVORITE picture from the photo booth. This hot and heavy couple is my GRANDPARENTS! Love it!!



Maybe Will has seen his momma do this once of twice?



Aww... love Uncle Steven...



When I say Will danced the night away, I mean he GOT DOWN! He danced for hours and hours- no exaggeration! He boogied with the best of them and had some pretty sweet moves.





Don't know where he learned those moves...





It was so SO much fun to see everyone and share Will with them. I wish we could see everyone more often, but it just makes us appreciate the precious time we do have. Love to all!!!
