North Carolina

This past weekend Kenzie and I made her 1st flight to NC to see Melinda and Deuce. Carrie and Nathan also made the trek so that all the little kiddos could play together. Given the fact that I am not the best flyer because of nausea and all that, I was apprehensive about flying with a 17 month old but nevertheless, I loaded up a backpack of goodies and headed to the airport. My little darling did pretty good and I survived as well. She was definitely a busy bee and went from one toy to the next or one book to the next and ate lots of snacks. She melted when we started to land and she had to sit still but with a little apple juice she was happy again in no time. Of course I don't have any pictures because it was all I could do the entertain her, much less take pictures of her.

While we were in NC we mostly just relaxed which was nice. The kids played a little at the playground but mostly just enjoyed playing with someone else's toys. Dave took care of the kids during nap one day and after they went to bed one night so us girls could do what we always do: shop and then enjoy a few drinks. Here are some highlights.
Deuce sliding
Nathan blowing bubbles
Kenzie and Deuce chasing bubbles
enjoying the swings
sliding out of the bouncy chair (big kids love this toy)
Playing peek a boo with Deuce
Nathan on the princess phone
hitting balloons.
It was a fun, relaxing weekend and a great excuse to spend time with family.
