We made a trip to Grand Blanc for the weekend to see the Holleboom family. It's been a while since we've all been together. And this was Rebecca's first time at Grandpa and Grandma's house! We visited with Grandpa and Grandma Holleboom in the morning/early afternoon on Saturday. Then the whole family went to Porter's Orchard in Goodrich. We walked to the pumpkin patch and picked a couple pumpkins. And we took lots of pictures. 
Both Rebecca and Carson are getting so big. They were so fun to watch. For dinner we all gathered at Grandpa and Grandma's house. The kids provided the meal for them as part of the celebration of their 35th wedding anniversary. We had quite a feast with roast chicken, baked potatoes, corn souffle, squash and homemade applesauce. It was like Thanksgiving :) Dinner was followed by gifts and cake (that Mommy made:) and ice cream. We were celebrating their anniversary and Dan's 26th birthday. After dessert it was bed time for the little ones. Rebecca was not too fond of Grandma's pack 'n' play. She didn't sleep much all night. She ended up sleeping with Daddy in the recliner.

Sunday we went to Good Shepherd Church and saw some old friends. Everyone was excited to finally meet Rebecca. We left for home right from church. Rebecca slept most of the way home. She was very worn out from such a busy weekend, and she needed to catch up a bit. It was so much fun to see everyone! But it's also nice to be back home :) Rebecca played for a couple hours when we got home. She was excited to be back. She squealed and squealed :) She was happy to sleep in her own crib last night too.
Tomorrow Rebecca has her 6 month check up. Hopefully she'll tolerate her shots well this time. Thursday Grandpa and Grandma Holleboom will be coming to baby-sit while Mary goes to a Dr. appt. This will be her first time with a baby-sitter. Hopefully she remembers Grandma from the weekend :)
