We were in Texas for Easter, and in order to get there, Grayce obviously had to endure her first plane trip!! We pulled out all the cards in the book to make this as smooth a flight as possible and she did pretty well! In fact, on the flight back, the people in front of us were stunned to notice there was even a baby behind them after we landed. On the way in, she fussed a bit, but Im pretty sure most of it was due to the boredom of being in the same cramped space for hours. When we arrived, Ron & Jenny had a new stroller and infant carrier waiting for us (thank goodness we didnt have to lug any of that on the plane) - what a lifesaver! And even better - they had a pack n play all set up when we got home, a bouncy chair, toys, clothes, the works!! We were all very thankful!
The next day we were thrilled to find out that Angie (Tim's sister) had just gotten engaged, so it was fun to celebrate the news. Full steam ahead for a September 19th wedding! It was also great to have Grayce finally meet her Aunt Angie, Uncle Jeff, & future Uncle Andy :) Unfortunately my allergies got so bad that by Sunday I had actually gotten sick from them - and I was coughing and sneezing up a storm. But if there was any place to get sick, it was there, because Ron & Jenny did a wonderful job of taking over while I drugged myself up with cold & allergy medicine and slept a lot. Unfortunately I look horrible in all of the pictures because of this, but oh well, lets just focus on Grayce :)
Here are some pictures of the trip for your enjoyment. Of course, most of them are of Grayce :)

She slept most the way, which was good!
Meeting Uncle Jeff!
Meeting (the newly engaged!) Aunt Angie!
Grayce's new friend Annie :)
Easter morning while mom & dad slept, Grayce got an Easter basket from Gramma & Grandpa!
Then we got her dressed up in a beautiful dress that Gramma Jenny got her and took her to Lindsy's family's house where she met Bryan & Lindsy's daughter Alexa (Tims goddaughter). Alexa was so cute with Grayce, she treated her like her little baby doll :)
Grayce kept pulling Alexa's hair, but Alexa was really good about it. :)
Then out came the bunny outfit from my godfather, Ted! Soooo cute!
I took Grayce to go see the cows on Lindsy's familys farm
Ummm excuse me Miss, can I see your ID? Grayce loves to stick everything in her mouth, but she got caught with this big NO NO in her mouth!! Mommy's beer!!!
Back home for some more Easter bunny photo opps
And Jenny made this beautiful bonnet for Grayce that we just had to put on her!
Later on, Grayce got to meet (her future uncle) Andy, Angie's fiance.
And played with Elvis Elmo before going to bed
It was a fun trip!! We have a ton more pictures so if anyone wants to see more, just email me! But these gave you a good highlight of Grayce's first Easter :)I am soooo tired so Im going to bed for now. More posts hopefully to come this weekend - including videos of our little stander-upper!! :)
