The Larrabee Family: Danny and Ashley's Wedding, Chicago, and the UP

On our way to Chicago for Danny and Ashley's wedding. Ben always wants it to be fun for the boys so he surprised us with this ride.

The boys all decked out in their Michigan gear and were ready for a long day of traveling.

And off we go...in style of course!

It was the first time Farrah was flying and what a load we had. People just moved out of our way as they saw us coming it was great!

Thank goodness for airport play areas

and the princess sleeps

The boys loved watching the plans land and takeoff.

The boys did great! My friend Marcy let me borrow this harness seatbelt for Deucer and it worked great. Next time we fly all together I will be using it again.

Thank you Marcy!!

Farrah was a perfect peach for her first plane ride.

We landed and rushed right to the rehearsal dinner. My mom was there to watch Will and Farrah and Ben and I took Luke to the rehearsal.

Uncle Sam and Lukey

Later my dad and Jo Jo came to my sisters it was so nice to stay put and have everyone come see us. Deucer loves my dad and ran and gave him a big hug when he woke up from his nap.

Just hanging out together

We watched Candace and Bobby's photos from Italy on the TV and Will loved seeing Bobby on TV.

Lukey didn't want to nap with Deucer earlier but couldn't make it till bed time with out a quick cat nap.

Papa Stevie and Deucer coloring

Time goes by too fast the whole time we were gone I only saw my dad and Jo twice. We look forward to his trip out to Arizona so we can be with him longer.

My sweaty boy really slept hard not a cat nap at all.

These two boys just love each other and each night even though they had their own beds wanted to sleep with each other.

Bye CHI Town we are heading To the UP!

....BUT not without stopping in Green Bay first to see the Hanson Family!

Evelyn and Farrah

My little baby James Bond always on a mission

RUN RUN RUN

It was a perfect stay at the Hansons we got to catch up and the kids got to RUN and play together it was just great. We love our wonderful friends and don't get to see them often so we took full advantage of this time

Sweet Farrah loves to be outside and the cool fresh air did us all good!

And Will of course wanted in that SWING!

Larz is the sweetest baby and baby lover. He is just over a year now and is as cute as can be! He adored Farrah!!

The boys loved all Evelyn and Larz's toys and had fun playing

Ben the kid magnet

The kids are in bed and we (except Marisa she is prego) opened up a bottle of wine and geeked out on our computers and hung out it was so nice to spend this time with them.
