Mike's niece Julia Brown was going to be baptized and we were able to go and visit for the big occasion.
The flights from Las Vegas were super cheap so we decided to drive out there and fly to Texas from Las Vegas. The kids were pretty good on the way there. We actually go to Las Vegas a little bit early and while we waited for our flight we went and looked around at Ross. Lilah found these cute suit cases for both of them and they were pretty sad we couldn't take them with us. Thankfully a picture of the suitcases made it all better.
We had packed plenty of entertainment for the drive and the flight. The kids ofcourse got pretty wiggly while we waited to board so they ran around the airport.
I was anxious to get on the plane already even though I know the plane ride would be hard.
David ofcourse was the most well behaved. He was on across the isle from us and just sat there watching a show and eating his snacks like a big kid.
David, you are the easiest most well behaved kid ever!
Annie was pretty good too. She took a little snooze which definitely helped.
We got there the day before the baptism and my sister in law, Katie went and picked us up. We hadn't told Karin that we were going so it was a total surprise. Jill let us stay at her house.
It was fun to surprise everyone as we walked into the baptism.
The kids had a blast at Jill's house. They loved playing with cousin Joseph's toys and had so much fun swimming.
I loved watching David and Joseph play. Cousins are the best.
Here they are being naughty in the shower getting shampoo everywhere, hehe!
David enjoying the beautiful view behind Jill's house.
In the evening, we all walked outside and watched the firework show happening over the lake. Jill came out with ice cream bars and popsicles for everyone. She is definitely a great host!
The next day we went to church with Jill. Lilah was wearing a Stars dress and Lucy was wearing a Stripes dress. They coordinated perfectly for Independence day!
After church, everyone came over to Jill's house for dinner and games.
Then we went on a family walk around the lake.
The kids had a blast
It was such a beautiful evening. The Browns, Righters, Markhams, Stouvenels, and Stewarts were all there.
The next day we had more delicious food. Seriously our Stewart cousins sure know how to have a good time!
We were so sad to leave. Just look at this cousin hug. My kids seriously have the best cousins!
Luckiest kiddos!
Go to sleep Annie! Hehe
We made it to Las Vegas. The kids LOVE going on planes and David is constantly asking to stay at the hotel that's like 5 miles from our house
Little travelers. After we made it back to Las Vegas, it was time to head back home.
When we got home, my neighbors had borrowed our front yard to put a bounce house. It was fun to come home to that.
All of our neighbors were outside and had, had a get together. The kids had a good time with the neighborhood friends.
It was an unforgettable Fourth of July!
