Braxton and Zoe and I hit the road, saturday morning, and made our way to Illinos to Auntie Pam's house to attend Bryanna's baby shower. We arrived on saturday afternoon to visit with, very pregnant, Bryanna and Nick, newly pregnant Alissa and Peter, Uncle Jeff (and Sadie), Kaitlin (and Cheyanne), and Nicole with her busy brood of 3. It was a family party in and of itself! Sarah (Hill) and Isabella were there and plans were underway for food prep for the next day.
Sunday's shower was very nice. The girls did a very good job with the food, decorating and games. Lots of family and friends and babies! It was so nice to visit with everyone. My cold got worse as the weekend went on and by the end of the shower I had no voice. Oh, well. Seems to happen to me more often than it should. Uncle Jeff kept Braxton during the shower and Zoe and I went to meet them for dinner later. By monday morning the kids and I were tired out and not ready to climb back into the car fpr 7 hours but...we did. It was a blustery drive home packed with flurries, rain, wind, breaks of sun, and construction.
We got home just in time to pick up Emma from school then go home to play catch up with Bayley too. She stayed behind to take the ACT exam. Emma stayed behind to go to a friend's birthday party on saturday then a Children's Theatre production of Madeline and the Gypseys on sunday with gramma Barb.
