Our first road trip as a family of five, we survived!

But we had a fun time!!! We traveled to Germantown, MD about two hours from our house for our friends, Dan and Jami's daughter Reagan's 4th birthday :-) We were so happy to be able to make it and to see them! Hard to believe I met Dan just a FEW short years ago at our college orientation (eh hem...notice I said a 'few' short years ago because I  mean really....it wasn't THAT long ago, geez only 15 or so years =0) And then I  met Jami a few months later after we moved into the lovely dorms at Coastal Carolina University :-)

Anyways, we were able to get there early to hang out with the Trumbowers for a bit before the party while Gavin made sure to play with EVERY door in their house and EVERY door at the party place. Gavin went on a bug hunt with his cute bug jar that he made. Reagan and her little brother Reed had fun playing with J&K who also enjoyed all the extra attention :-)

All of the boys did fabulously well on the car ride! YAY!!!! Of course we had hoped J&K would fall asleep on the way there and they did about 10 minutes before we go to their house :-P That figures right? And on the way back everyone went to sleep....aaahhh sweet sweet silence :-)

Look at these sweet faces...I love a sleeping baby or toddler in Gavin's case :-)



Jakob is like Gavin...loves to sleep with his blankie on his face :-)

All in all a great day!!! J&K did great even though they missed a nap, they handled it well. Gavin had a blast playing with everything. Marcin and I enjoyed seeing the Trumbower's :-)

Now to get ready for our next road trip....6 hours to Virginia Beach in just 32 days! WOO HOO!!! We are meeting my family from South Carolina in VA Beach for a week at a beach house, I cannot wait. It will be a much needed break from Delaware (we haven't left the First State for a vaca since before I got pregnant with J&K!, it was past due!) and just go play, relax at the beach. Well as much 'relaxing' as we can get with 3 under 3 :-) But Pop Pop, Gigi, Aunt Molly and Aunt Kiki will be there too!! And hopefully my other brother Thomas, his wife Jessica and their son Jesse (same age as gavin!).

Must go catch up on the Event even though stupid NBC cancelled it, HMPH!
