Two days after Christmas we got on our new Brownsburg sweatshirts (yes, I believe that means we have officially put down roots here ...) piled into the car and took off to see family that had gathered at my brother's house in PA for Christmas. 10 hours later we arrived and we had non-stop cousins, babies, grandpa & grandma, uncles, aunts and FUN for 4 days!
Miss Lilly reading to Mia! I loved hearing Mia walk around the house asking for 'Hawee'. Miss Lilly ate it up too - she loved playing big sister to a little sister for a few days.
My brother and his son, playing games with the family.
Miss Lilly holding brand new baby Brianne - cousin. So cute! She reminds me so much of Miss Lilly when she was a baby.
Elizabeth - another beautiful new cousin, in her blessing dress. Lucky girl was blessed the same day her sister was baptized ...
Annie, isn't she beautiful! She and Miss Lilly are two peas in a pod!
It snowed the day of her baptism. It was absolutely beautiful. Beautiful white covered the trees, ground, cars, making everything so clean and beautiful. Just like a baptism!
My parents and Uncle Kameron - braving the winter driving. Master S got to stay up late and play games with the adults this trip and sleep at the hotel with my parents - which he LOVED. And, Miss Lilly had my mom for a teacher in primary on Sunday, even though she was a visitor, they needed extra people and my mom volunteered. Miss Lilly LOVED it!
The next day we headed to my brother's in Germantown, MD for their baby's blessing. This is most of the cousins hanging together in the gym after church.
This is my brother Karl's baby - super sweet!
It was so fun to hold babies again! My brother's have married some super fantastic women. They are wonderful sisters and amazing mothers! We missed you Kelsey!
