Labor Day Weekend

We ended summer the same be we kicked it off on Memorial Day weekend...in Oklahoma City! We left early Saturday morning and hit the road for our 5 hour drive south. We made a stop in Enid to see my Grandma Werner, Great Aunt Dorie, Aunt Sally and Uncle JC. Grandma and Aunt Dorie hadn't seen Ben since he was 7 weeks old so we were super excited to show him off again! And Sally & JC hadn't met him in person yet. Grandma made a nice lunch for us and then we hung out and watched Ben play and crawl all around exploring. It was so nice to catch up with everyone!

We left around 2 pm and luckily Ben slept all the way to Moore! We got there and ran right to the sink to wash our hands so we could finally get our hands on Taylor! She is even more adorable than her pictures! We had been waiting for what seems like forever to see her in person! Carrie and Mark have fallen right into parenthood! Carol & Jimmy also came down for the weekend. It was great that they got to spend so much time with Ben & Taylor! Saturday night Mark tried out his new meat smoker and we had a great dinner! Sunday started as a nice lazy morning and then we headed to lunch. After the lunch the girls hit up the new outlet mall which was crazy packed full of people. And the boys went to the shooting range and then fishing. Sunday we just ordered pizza and after the kids were asleep we enjoyed a few glasses of wine! Mark & Carrie made a great breakfast for us before we all hit the road back to KC.
It was a nice relaxing trip that I know we will do time and time again! Thanks to Carrie & Mark for a great weekend!
