Our trip to Alabama

Ross, Connor and I flew to Alabama for Memorial Day weekend. It was a very busy weekend full of new babies, old friends and great times.

Ross's best friend (also known as his first wife) got married in Fairhope - which is oddly enough is the exact same small town where Ross’s sister lives.

Ross and Will have quite a long history together. They met at Auburn years ago and have been responsible for a great deal of madness and mayhem ever since. They even lived together for 6 years which is some states consitutes a common law marriage.

Will is a really fun guy and we're thrilled that he found a wonderful girl to settle down with. The wedding couldn't have been nicer. It was held at a historic hotel on the bay and they exchanged vows at sunset on the water. Absolutely gorgeous!

And if that wasn't enough - we were also blessed with the arrival of our new nephew Daniel Crawford Holmes. Ross's sister, Ivy gave birth to a handsome baby boy on the day that we arrived in Fairhope (what perfect timing). I'm still amazed at how tiny and precious newborns are. We're so excited to welcome Daniel to the family and are thrilled that the family continues to grow.

We had such a great time hanging out with family and friends that we were disappointed when it was finally time to come home. Here are a few of the family photos from the weekend.









For some reason Connor likes to take people's socks off. He even does this to his friends at daycare. Strange...
