Family fun
The other weekend, we took my cousin’s wedding as a chance to take a long weekend trip to Indiana. We were a little nervous about flying into Louisville, because it required a connection, which we had never dealt with before.

However, for the most part, Hazel did really well. As we flew, she enjoyed looking out the window, like her Poppa, and along the way, we discovered that plastic cups from the beverage cart were better than any of the actual toys we brought along with us.

Upon arriving into town, we went straight to visit my cousin, Erin, who had a baby girl just four weeks prior. It’s been years since we’d seen each other, but we’ve connected up again over shared food blogs and pregnancy experiences, so it was great to get to introduce our babies to each other.

The next day we attended the wedding that we traveled to town for. As new parents are apt to do, we took plenty of photos of Hazel dressed up for the ceremonies.

However, we were having too much fun catching up with people - aunts, uncles and cousins from both sides of our family - to take photos of the bride and groom. Unfortunately, we also failed to take good pictures of Hazel’s introductions to two other cousins over the course of the weekend. So we have to settle for relying on others’ phones to document those visits.

Luckily, we did use the fact that we were all in town to get some formal photos taken, with my family and my grandfather. It’s hard to believe that we didn’t manage to do this before Hazel got to eight months old!

It was a full weekend of family fun!
