M and I headed to Ky for the first time! Rob had to stay home and study. :( He was so sad to see us go. It was the longest time he's been away from M. I was a little nervous to make the drive by myself with baby M. But we survived!
It took us about 4 hours to get there. He slept the first hour and a half. My plan was to stop at an exit in Cincy where I knew there was a Drive-thru Starbucks that would give me hot water to heat up a bottle and give me caffeine for the drive! He started crying about 1 minute before I got off the exit! Way to go Marshall! We got to my Mom's Friday night and played a little bit. Grammy K loved seeing him of course. That day he started getting symptoms of a cold so that night he was congested and was up every 3 hours.
Saturday morning I was so tired but really wanted to see Kala and her clan. We headed over to her house for a bit to visit. Her sister Kasi just got engaged! Congrats Kasi! I can't believe I didn't get a picture of her gorgeous ring! Can't wait for that wedding next year! Kala's Dad and step-mom were in town from Indiana. They are two of my favorite people and it was so nice to see them! Amy- I didn't get a picture with you darn it! But if you look at the bottom right picture, Kala's Dad, Danny, is helping the boys hold on to Marshall.
Look at that blonde hair Parker has! It was so great seeing the Edwards/ Leugers Clan.
Next we went over to my Dad's house to visit for a bit. I didn't get any pictures though. :( But Lois and Dad loved seeing us. Lois put M right to sleep in her rocking recliner and he slept for awhile.
After this we headed back to my Mom's to get ready for the wedding.
Monica and Dan's Wedding!
They got married at a beautiful little Episcopal church.

Behind the church was a shelter for the reception. It was perfect! I only had my phone for pictures and the lighting wasn't very good so the pictures didn't turn out the best but its all I got!
Me, Ginny, Becky, Mandy, Monica, Rachel, Lauren, Andrea, and some random wedding guest that jumped in the picture. Haha!
The beautiful couple from Chicago- Andrea and Maher
Rachel and Lauren
Sweet Leighton fell in love with baby M. I know they both look silly in the last pic but I wanted to share every MOMENT! She held him twice! Getting ready for her little brother!
It was so nice having my Mom with me to help!
And it was so nice having my friends there to help too!
Mandy and baby M! So excited to meet her little guy soon!

I didn't get a pic with Becky or Lauren holding him but they did!
We lasted longer than I thought and the next morning got up bright and early to get back home to Daddy! We missed him!
It was so much fun and good for my soul to see my family and friends!
