Fitting it all in

So before we head out to California we have quite a few things that we want to do and people that we want to see. This past weekend was pretty full. First we spent a night as a family at a local Metro Park. We didn't bring the stroller this time and so we were able to "hike" down to the river. We love these parks, they are so pretty. Sunday we went to Fort Wayne, Indiana in order to see Mike's co-worker Sandra get married. It was a beautiful ceremony and really interesting for us to be at. That night we went to Michigan and stayed with Sister Hobbs, a sweet lady from Mike's mission. They are the family that we spent Thanksgiving with last year. They are really great to us and spoiled Emma with clothes and toys. We then went down to Detroit and tried to find more of the people Mike served while on his mission, but we only found a couple of them home. It was a good trip and Emma did really well considering she was in a car seat a lot of the time. At one period of time we think she was really overly tired because she just started cracking up for no reason. She was laughing so hard and couldn't stop. Her laugh is so infectious and we just couldn't help but laugh with her. We wish we had it on video because it was really funny. Well we have a lot more to do before we leave, but this past weekend was good start. Tomorrow I am having some co-workers over for dinner and hopefully it will be a good experience.
