We did it! VOLUNTARILY!
We found a good deal on some tickets out to the mid-west
to visit Eddie's sister, Amie, and her family.
We were looking forward to spending some quality time with Amie & Lyell, Katherine(6), Nathaniel(4), and Charlotte(18mo) in their new house in MN.
What a beautiful home they have!
Other than the crazy time sharing of Jamaica (for Carrie's wedding) and the 1 week in NC for Christmas, this was the first time that Ali would really get to play with her cousins!
She had a wonderful time and we did too!
We got all bundled up and went sledding w/ Ali.
She had on so many layers, she couldn't even sit up!
The only thing that was exposed was her little face... and it was SOOO cold!
We didn't keep her out too long.
We took turns walking down to the lake
to see what the ice fisherman had caught for the day.
She even shared the major milestone of "real walking" with Amie!
She was SO excited and SO proud of herself... She took 7 steps!
(Watch the video and see for yourself...)
It was so cute to see Ali (9mo) and her cousin Charlotte (18mo) playing together!
Eddie and I really enjoy and look forward to anytime that we can spend w/ Amie & Lyell. We are so fortunate to have such a great family that doubles as great friends too! I know we look up to them for advice, as they have done a great job raising their 3 kids, and we aspire to measure up!
We will look forward to the next time we can all get together!
