Since Ethan was working for Memorial Day weekend, Will and I decided to take a trip to Louisville to meet all the relatives and get a little taste of the south. The plane ride was a breeze (surprisingly). Will loved the noise and motion and being held by his mom for 6 hours straight. At home we had a great time being pampered by the grandparents and visiting with all the great-grandparents, cousins and friends. We even made it out to dinner a couple of times... always something new. We can't wait for our next trip home- hopefully next time with Daddy too!
Wearing his UK hat to get ready for the trip.
I can't wait!
Packing.
Will and Great-Grandma Dot.
Being held by Emma...
And Jenna. These two were adorable. They wanted to hold will over and over again. After Jenna found out that she wasn't going to get another turn, she said "Mom, can we go bye-bye now?"
Getting some love from Grandpa.
Out to eat at El Mundo, one of my favorite restaurants in Louisville. He did great sitting outside. And not one bug bite- yay!
Aunt Susie and Alan came over for a delicious dinner of ribs followed by mom's homemade German Chocolate Cake. It was a long night and by the time we got around to pictures Will just wasn't having it. So, here's a screaming picture instead. Aunt Susie will be visiting in June so we'll have a chance for her to see happy William.
Peggy in for a visit. She has a way with babies!
Aunt Marcy and Gina. It's been a while since Gina's held one that small!
Meeting cousin Lucas who's almost a year old (July 3rd). I can't believe Will is going to be that bid in a year... he has a ways to go.
Enjoying the morning paper and coffee with Grandpa.
Four generations of Dee's/Blackburns. What a crowd!
Great-grandma Joan and Great-grandpa David.
Another 4-generation shot.
We always try to catch a yawn on camera and are rarely successful. I guess Grandma is boring.
Dylan and William.
Loving bath time in the big tub.
