Abby and Tyler

Well, we survived the weekend.  Little miss traveled like a champ! 

She may have been worn out from this:

Saturday morning we went to Jamie's and tried to get a picture of all the Koch great-grands. Then we high tailed it to Leo.   She slept the entire way... woke up just as we pulled into the hotel and demanded food.  And then she made a terrible mess all over me... *sigh*  it's a good thing I packed lots of extra clothes.

We met Will and Joanna and boys for supper at Cracker Barrel.  It was great fun and so good to see them again!  Probably the highlight of my weekend, since I was the least stressed.  New things are just hard, and trying to figure out how to deal with a baby at a different church and a reception is not my idea of fun. 

The rest of the evening we chilled at the hotel... and spent a little bit of time with the rest of the family.  Little miss Cecily is still a night owl, it's usually at least 10:30- 11ish before she decides she's sleepy, so with losing an hour on Indiana time we were up until midnight.   This picture cracks me up; wide awake and chilling watching a western with Bob...



Sunday we were late to church... but hey, I've never been on time to Leo, so why start now?  haha.  I tried to get a picture for Christmas cards that morning... she was happy, but she moves her arms so much it's hard to catch a smile.  O well.  

The wedding was lovely... I got teary when she walked in.  And then I spent the rest of the service paranoid that Cecily would get fussy and I'd have to take her out.  Anyway.  They got married and we headed for the reception, which was at the Alan County Courthouse.  The historic Alan County Courthouse. Which is still in use so we had to go through security to get in.   It. Was. Gorgeous.  The food was fabulous.  I took all of three pictures, not sure what I was thinking.

Kendra, Shelly, Lys

 

Lys did not know I was taking her picture.  hehe.

The only picture of Abby and I is blurry.  Sad news.  But she was a beautiful bride and her dress was super cool.

I stole some pictures from somebody else who was there:

 So yeah, it was quite the doings.  *grin*  We left from the reception after hauling our luggage in through the metal detector and scanner to change clothes... so weird.  We had a pretty good trip home- Cecily cried a little bit until we could stop to feed her and me.  (Convenient.)  She was really happy to get out of her car seat when we got home though, so funny. 

This week we've been laying low... I've been baking cookies and not doing a whole lot else.  We listened to services with Grandpa and Grandma Beutel tonight because Cecily got her shots today and I was afraid she'd be super fussy.  But she wasn't.  O well, it's good to spend time with them and we delivered some Springerli. 

Blessings.
