Presley's First Trip to Illinois

    Last Thursday, we took a trip to visit Matt's family in Illinois.  We decided to drive at night since the girls would hopefully sleep the trip there.  They did great!  While we were there, we enjoyed visiting with family and friends, eating at our favorite restaurants, playing in the backyard, and roasting hot dogs and marshmallows.

Bathed, PJ's on and reading to head to Illinois

Aunt Bailey wanted to stay home from school and hold Presley all day, she told me.

Presley's first time swinging.  She LOVED it if you couldn't tell by the picture:)
