He had his first airplane ride!
He got to visit his Grandpa Van Gesen's grave for the first time.
He got to spend lots of time being loved and cuddled by his Nana and his Grandma.
He got to go on a few walks with mom and dad.
He got to meet his cousins, aunts and uncles. His cousin Andrew is only 4 weeks older than he is! They had a great time playing together :)
The biggest event of the trip was Austin's baby blessing. His dad gave him the most beautiful blessing and seven of his uncles (all of Mark's brothers and brothers-in-law) and his grandfather stood in the circle. It was such a beautiful experience. If Austin can grow up to be like any of his uncles or father or grandfathers I will be happy. They are all magnificent men.
The reunion was absolutely delightful. We ate good food and spent time with even better company. We laughed and played and caught up with family members. It was such a great time. We hope we get to make it to another reunion soon!
