Texas and a Wedding

Ben's friend Brian is getting Married, so of course we're going to pile a 2 1/2 yr old, a 2 month old and all their stuff in a car and drive to Texas.




The trip there and back actually went really well. Both girls traveled well. Maya eat, slept and pooped just as she would have at home (2 month old's don't do too much yet). Morgan got creative with the limited space she had. And when we'd hit the point of complete boredom we would pull out the DVD player. I think that her favorite part of the trip (there and back) was stopping at hotels and running around the room like a crazy kid. Her energy had to go somewhere.



Once in Texas we stayed in a beach house with several other friends. Morgan had a blast being the only kid there and I enjoyed giving my arms a break as everyone held Maya. Morgan also found a new favorite pass time as she covered her self in muddy sand attempting to build sand castles.




The Wedding (and reason for this trip) was so fun. Morgan spent most of the time on the dance floor. Even when no one else seemed to be dancing, there was Morgan! We had to force her to sit down to eat dinner (she did come willingly for cake though). And Ben had to restrain her during the first dance and the father daughter dance etc. She didn't quite understand why she couldn't be out there with them.
She was, also, very obsessed with the bride, or as she called her, "the lady in the white dress with flowers."
During the toast Morgan was given some orange juice so she could join in. She thought that was the coolest thing (aside from cake and dancing with the Bride).
Maya spent most of the wedding sleeping in her car seat. oh the blessed age where they can sleep threw anything! I don't think we took advantage of Morgan being that age like we are with Maya. It is nice having one who stays right where you put her.




Oh what fun!! we are officially labeled crazy by most of our friends for driving to TX with the little ones but I would do it again! :) Maybe stay a whole week though...
Congratulations to Brian and (as Morgan would say), "his lady in the white dress."
