Smith Family Weblog

We just returned from a week-long trip to Nebraska. I think we managed to see every aunt, uncle, cousin, parent and grandparent possible. We had two Thanksgiving dinners, one first birthday party and many other occasions to get together with family.

I’ll start with our visit with my grandparents–they were kind enough to host Ava, Olivia and me during the first part of the week. I joked that the neighbors probably thought that I’d left Bryan and was moving in with them based on the amount of luggage I brought with us.

Gramma and Grampa took us in stride, spoiling the girls with games, books and good food.

In most every photo you’ll see of Olivia in a high chair from this trip, she’ll be stripped down to a onesie or completely naked. The kid refuses to wear a bib, and spaghetti stains tend to set after a week. She doesn’t seem to mind the bareness as long as her tray is full.
