First Trip to Rome!

This last weekend, we were able to make our first road trip to Rome, Georgia! We couldn't wait to take Andrew to visit his family there- his Papaw and Nana, Aunts, Uncles, cousins and great grandparents! David had the weekend off, so we headed to Rome on Saturday morning and returned on Sunday evening. Andrew did such a great job in the car!! He slept from Nashville to Chattanooga, fed him in Chattanooga, and then slept the rest of the way to Rome! I foresee many road trips in our future! :) In Rome, we got to meet Uncle Justin, Aunt Becca and cousin Ellie for the first time. Ellie absolutely LOVED Andrew! She wanted to hold him immediately! It was so sweet! We also got to surprise my grandparents, Pop and Mamaw, while we were there. They were thrilled to meet their newest great grandson! Andrew also got to make his debut at Oak Hill where his mom and dad's relationship began 7 years ago. It was so much fun to introduce him to our precious friends and family there. When we got back from church, we were able to celebrate Emily, Ellen, and Nana's birthday. It was so great to spend  time with our Rome family! We look forward to the next time we get to visit!
