Roadtripping

Nelson's childhood friend, Will, got married this past weekend in Galveston, so we had our first roadtrip to Houston! We played it by ear and left around 7:30am, and she slept the whole way - super impressive. When we first got to Clear Lake, we met my dad, Patty, and Valerie for lunch at Jason's Deli.


That night, Nelson and I went to the rehearsal dinner in Stafford while Nelson's parents babysat. His mom was SO excited, so I knew they would do a great job. And sure enough, everything went perfectly! I know Kennedy loved spending the night with them and being pampered :)

Nelson's mom had cleaned out some closets recently and found a bunch of pictures. How is this not the most precious picture of Nelson?!


Saturday morning, Nelson went down to Galveston early since he was a groomsman, and we all planned to head down there later in the afternoon. When going to lunch, I pointed out to Nelson's mom that she and Kennedy were matching with their pink shirts, and she told me she did it on purpose. Such a cute granddaughter and her Năi Nai :)


Do you think they're obsessed?


My sweet little family <3



Sharon, our wedding photographer and friend, was Will and Carol's wedding photographer, too! So she took our picture in front of the beautiful floral awning.



Kennedy got to meet so many people, and everyone thought she was so pretty and sweet. Unfortunately Ben, Stephen and Michelle's baby, wasn't super happy that she slept during their first face-to-face meeting.


Krishna actually asked to hold her, and it was pretty cute how excited he was.


Before passing her off to Nelson's mom and sister (who graciously stayed with us so they could put her to bed while we stayed out at the wedding), we had some photobooth fun!


The next morning, Kennedy was obviously in a great mood! Me? Considering I went to sleep at 2:00am and she was ready to eat at 5:00am, bleh. Luckily she went back to sleep for a couple more hours.



Again, these two could just stare at her all day.... but I honestly can't blame them!




The drive back was almost as successful as the drive there. Kennedy slept most of the way, waking up between Bastrop and the airport. And then she pretty much cried the rest of the way home. But we did it and it wasn't terrible, so we'll definitely be going back. Next time: Chinatown :)
