This past Thursday we jumped on the plane and traveled to Michigan for my cousins wedding. This was the first time that we have traveled out of the state with Sarah Kathryn and also the first time to travel on a plane. I was a nervous wreck for nearly a month thinking about what this trip could hold but honestly Sarah Kathryn was an ANGEL the whole time! She did fabulous on the plane and was such a sweet girl while visiting with TONS of extended family. On Thursday, Sarah Kathryn met her Great Nana and Papa. I am so glad that she was able to meet them and they were so excited to finally see her. She also saw my dad for the first time since she was 2 weeks old. My dad could not believe how big she had gotten and what a little person she has turned into. While Thomas and I were at the wedding on Friday night my aunt kept Sarah Kathryn. This was the first time that she has spent the night away from us and although I missed her every second that she was away we had a great time at the wedding. Everyone was so happy to meet our little one and I think she charmed everyone with her sweet smile! In addition to meeting my grandparents, she also met my other grandmother, great aunts and uncles, friends, and my first cousins. We had a great trip and I look forward to the next one now that I know she will behave so well.
