Back up to Maryland for a Baptism

Two weekends in a row up to Maryland! Whew! I will never do two back to back road trips again, but I didn't want to have to choose between family and friends either, so two trips it was. My niece, Kelsey and her cousin, Lily were getting baptized in Annapolis.

So we packed up the girls again and hit the road. Both girls did relatively well on these road trips, not perfect but not horrible either. We're still learning when is the best time to travel and now with two the dynamic changes a bit.

Kelsey & Lily's baptism was for close family only and was just in the lobby entryway of Brian & Amy's church. This actually worked out well so that Arden could be a bit more mobile. I was worried that she was going to have sit "still" in a church. Not possible for a two year old. Unfortunately, Dave had a bad cough/cold going up to Maryland and decided to take some Hydrocodone cough syrup without measuring, so he was a little out of it during the baptism as you can see in the family picture below ;-)

The nice part of the weekend was that the entire part of the family got to be together and all the cousins got to meet. This was the first trip that Uncle Brian (Burp) and Aunt Amy got to meet Kyla which was nice. And Arden had fun chasing Kelsey & Lily around and trying to "take care" of them. and most importantly, Noani & Poppi got all their granddaughters together at the same time ;-)
