Our visit home

Okay, so being pregnant the second time with Lucy running, (well crawling) around makes updating this blog as I should a little more difficult. I usually have perfect intentions each evening after Lucy is tucked in bed, but then, I too am usually tucked in bed minutes after......whew, when is the first trimester over???

Anyway........I finally have some pictures to share from our wonderful visit to Chillicothe, Cincinnati, and Northern Kentucky. We were in town for Kate's wedding, which was beautiful, and Lucy and I extended the visit an extra week to spend time with friends and family in KY. The weather was warm, just how I like it, and we spent much of our time swimming.....Lucy's favorite hobby, and catching up with everyone. Enjoy the photos!

Lucy met baby Ella for the first time. Amanda and I have been friends since the first grade, the girls have a head start on us. Lucy was very interested in Ella, she kept touching her head, I think it was her way of saying hi. We spent the evening at a beautiful winery in Kentucky, http://www.elkcreekvineyards.com/

Then off to Chillicothe for the wedding. Walt's parents hosted a lovely evening at their farm for the rehearsal dinner. Bluegrass music filled the air as everyone gather around the pond and a crackling bonfire as the sun set. Lucy experienced her first bonfire, she kept pointing to it as she loves pointing to the light......and yes, that was a very BIG light!
Lucy enjoyed clapping with the guests! Congratulations Kate and Mike!!
Wow, will I get to have a wedding like this someday??? Daddy start saving!

Family photo at the brunch the day after the wedding. Lucy enjoyed a sunny day with the Overmann family at Coney Island Pool. We had a great time with all my cousins and Lucy's second cousins. Lucy is learning to walk with Abby, she was a great little helper all day.
Carlee sharing some puffs with Lucy. They were so cute playing together and loved swimming in the giant pool.

Swimming with her new friends James and Shelby, little ones of my friends from high school Krista and Julie. Lucy met her second cousins Sterling and Hopelyn. Sterling and Lucy played while baby Hopelyn was fast asleep.
