We left Houston on Aug. 29th. Twenty-nine, yes that is right twenty-nine, hours is way too long to be in a car. Reese did extremely well for the most part. We had to pull over a few times and let her out and play.
Other times we just let her cry it out until she eventually fell asleep.
But we finally made it to Utah to visit family for a few days. We had a lot of fun visiting both mine and Ben's family.
While we were visiting my family my sister took some family pictures of our little family of three. Reese was good for about the first five minutes and then she was done. We got some really cute pictures though.
Pretty sure I love this little girls smile!
Pretty sure I LOVE these two
My shy little girl. She was so funny meeting all of her family. Whenever she would meet someone new she would smile at them and then hide her face by ducking her head. It was hilarious!
And pretty sure I am in love with this one!
After visiting my family for a few days we headed to Syracuse to visit Ben's family. Reese had a lot of fun playing with her cousin Trey. Trey was so good to Reese too. When I would go in to get Reese up from a nap Trey would walk in with me and say in the cutest high pitched voice, "Good morning baby Reese".
He was so good to play softly with Reese and I think Reese had fun playing with him. Trey is going to be such an awesome older brother!
We were at Ben's parents house over Labor day weekend so we all went to Antelope Island and had a picnic together. We saw lots of Buffalo everywhere....some were real....
And some not so real....
We also got to visit Ben's great-grandma, Grandma Dahle before heading back to Rexburg. Reese is named after her. Grandma Dahle is just the sweetest lady and we had so much fun visiting with her.
Now that we are back in Rexburg Ben is going to school. Reese and I have been hanging out and trying to put our house together. We had a very successful summer but we are so happy to be close to family again and back in Rexburg.
