Double the Party

This weekend we took our very first road trip as a family of four! All went well to and from Tennessee to celebrate Carter's 4th birthday and Seth's 2nd! We had a great time seeing everyone. Wayne, Connie, Nanny, Mike and Vickie drove down from Kentucky Saturday morning to see Rane. The only family that has seen Rane up to this point were the grandparents so everyone was excited to see our newest addition. Ella Ann did great sharing her baby brother...mainly because she was SO excited to play with Carter and Seth!

We left Friday late afternoon and hit major traffic and tagged an hour onto our drive, not fun, but we made it. Rane proved to be a good little traveler (does he really have a choice??) and we never heard a peep from him during either drive. Ella Ann kept asking us if she was going to eat cake even though it wasn't her birthday because she thinks the only time she can eat birthday cake is if it's HER birthday! She had fun watching Carter and Seth open their presents and really enjoyed playing with their new toys with them.

On Sunday we went to church and stayed for lunch. It was nice not to have to be in a rush to get home. When we got to our house there was a big package on our front porch from Disney...yeay! Mimi and Grandpa were just there last week so they sent Ella Ann and Rane some presents. Ella Ann's face lit up like a light bulb when she saw her Cinderella costume complete with "glass" slippers and a light up magic wand! Her exact words: "I'm going to carry this wand where ever I go!" Rane got a cute little onsie for this summer and a Mickey bib...we break them in early with Disney as you can tell!! We will not be taking Ella Ann to Disney World until she is 5 but she is always saying, "When I get bigger, I can go to Disney World and see where Mickey lives and see Donald and Goofy and Minnie and Pluto and Cinderella and Belle...etc.!" You get the picture! She is soooo ready but we are not! :)

Okay so again I took a lot of pictures so click HERE to view them. I also threw in some that you all have seen before because I wanted to add them in for my friends on Facebook that don't read our blog.

We're so glad you all were here! Great pictures. After I went through mine I realized that I didn't take many at all. I guess there was too much going on! :) Hope ya'll are having a good week!
