Road Trip

We recently had a weekend trip home to see our families (October 23rd-25th). Our first stop when we got into Pleasanton was at MeMa's house. Bryson had never gotten to meet MeMa, so we were so excited to see her. Bryson took right to her, and spent most of the visit in MeMa's lap. Bryson has two great-grandmothers. We are so blessed!
Next Stop: The Winn House to meet baby Keaton (born 5 weeks after Bryson)! It was so much fun seeing all of our boys together. Keaton was adorable! We can't wait to watch these boys grow up together. I'm sure there will be lots of trouble for them to get into together in the not so far away future. :)
After a pretty long day of traveling and stopping for visits along the way, we finally made it to Granny and Grandpa's house. Grandpa was at a knife show in Arizona and William was marching in the band at a football game, but we got to see everyone else! We wish we lived closer so we could see them more often...

On Saturday Abby hosted an Uppercase Living party for me at her house. She had a great turnout and it was so much fun getting to see everyone and getting to introduce them to Bryson. After Abby's party, we ate lunch with Granny, Will, Jessica, and Laynie, and then Bryson and I headed to my parents' house for the evening (Jason stayed in Pleasanton so he could go dove hunting). My mom had an Uppercase Living party that night! It went great as well. I was a little bit overwhelmed, but made great commission and got some good experience. Bryson loved hanging out with Grandma and PawPaw.

On Sunday Granny and Jason met us at Clear Springs for lunch. Here are a few pictures from our lunch:
Posing with Grandma. Such a sweet smile!

Laughing with Granny- such a big boy!

Sunday afternoon we headed back to College Station. Bryson did much better in his carseat this trip. The MacDonalds loaned us a mobile for his carrier and it actually kept him entertained for long stretches of time. Thanks MacDonalds!

We had a great weekend and were happy to be home. It is amazing how life changes with a little one! We are loving every moment of this new life.
