Weekend in Wilmington

I stumbled upon a conference for nursing CE's that took place in Wilmington on a Friday morning at the end of April.  Will and I thought it was a perfect excuse to spend the weekend in Wilmington so we headed east on Thursday afternoon.  It was the weekend before our 8th anniversary, so Mimi and Papa offered to keep the kids Friday night so that we could go celebrate.  The second night, all four kids were in town (Sarah had a wedding shower for one of her friends from high school).  We had a fun reunion dinner together with the whole family.

Papa and Will teaching the kids the game of golf
with Anna's new golf clubs.

See, Jack, I can do this too!

And she just kept on going all the way down the driveway!

Chillaxin in the swing!

Aunt Michelle with Caroline

Swing it, Jack!

The Collins Men

The babies in the bath water!

Anna loved showing Nia and Nellie her "magic computer".

Cousin fun

We tried to get a photo of all the kiddos,
but Nellie wasn't too keen on that idea...

...even when Mimi made everyone else laugh (minus Jack).

The four of us back together again!


Nellie making faces in the computer--so cute!

Big girls

Computer babies love Sesame Street!

Thanks for an awesome time Mimi and Papa!
Sarah had a baby shower Sunday afternoon, so Will and I offered to bring Caroline back with us.  The first leg of the trip was interesting with three kiddos awake and I'm sure the people at McD's thought we were crazy.  Luckily, everyone slept on the second leg until we were almost home.  Fun times!
