The "Grand" tour!

Just over a week old and Elsie is hitting the open road! She travels so easy! Unlike Wil, she hasn't learn to dislike the carseat! We took the kids west to see all of their great grandparents, Gma Terry's and anyone else we could squeeze in! She got a lot of visits at Jason's cousin Aaron's wedding on Saturday-see blog! First was Great Grandma Jane in Tallahassee. It was fun to see her hold Elsie and listen to Grandma's stories about her babies! Its funny how much has changed since then and how much hasn't!! Then we drove on into Freeport and stopped by Jason's Granny, Sara. We heard a few more stories about how those strong women used to do it and then we drove over to Grandma Terry's for some homeade lasagna! Tina, Gerald and Aubriyah came over and Grandma played with Wil and Elsie while we got ready for the wedding. Aubriyah brought Elsie some of her favorite hand-me-downs! We drove over to the wedding and afterwards stayed with Wes and Kasey and kids in Crawfordville. Hester and her mom brought the kids over to meet Elsie and then Farrah came over to meet the old girl! After some good visiting and a delicious lunch served by Kasey, we left for Perry. Our last stop was dinner with Grandpa Hoyt. I was looking forward to this b/c Elsie is named after my late Grandma Elsie, Grandpa Hoyt's wife. He is so cute with babies! It was good to see Hoyt and Elsie together again! It was also good to see some of my extended family on Mom's side also. So many good times this weekend-all in one trip!
