It's my (half) birthday!
I'm one-half today! Man this is great. I was so sick of being zero. I feel like I've been zero my entire life. Finally I've reached a major milestone: one-half.
For my (half) birthday Mommy and Daddy packed up everything and drove me halfway across North America. I went to sleep in my new carseat on the Fourth of July, and when I woke up this morning we were in Virginia! (The birthplace of Democracy, Dad says. Whatever that means.)
We left Virginia this morning and drove to my Great Aunt Judy's house for her wedding. She lives on a mountainside somewhere in the middle of North Carolina, and her wedding was nothing like any wedding I've ever been to. Of course I've only been to one before today, but I'm telling you the one today was nothing like that one.
For starters, at my cousin Erin's wedding, Erin was wearing shoes. Also her wedding was in a church, not a yard. And the guests were dressed nicer (well, except the photographer). But I suppose the end result was the same: The bride and groom ended up married. And that's the main thing.
It was great to see my Great Aunt again. She came all the way from North Carolina to my house to visit me. (Now I know just how far that was!!!) And my cousin Alicia was there (I was glad to see her again, she is so sweet), and my Great Aunt Darlene, and my Grandpa and Grandma Driever. Plus I got to meet my cousins Jalina, Jeremy, Dallas and John. They are all very nice but they need to quit smoking. We left early because there were so many people smoking all around us, and my little lungs aren't ready for that.
From there we drove forever and we're still in North Carolina! But now we're at the beach! I can't wait to see the ocean in the daylight -- it sure sounds neat. I can kinda see the waves but it's dark now.
Our big beach house is really nice. A bunch of my cousins from northern Ohio are here -- even my cousin Erin and her new husband Josh! (They just got married last weekend and now here they are again!) My other cousins who are here are Cindy and Rick, Steve and Donna, Ashleigh and Cass, Erin and Josh, and Lynsey and Leah. It seems like someone is missing... but that's the whole list.
Mommy and Daddy and I have our own bedroom upstairs, and all four of the newlyweds are in the big master bedroom across the hall. Everyone else is in the three bedrooms downstairs. There is also a kitchen, dining room and living room all in one big area downstairs. Plus we have a big deck, a walkway right out to the beach, a three-car garage and a hot tub!
We are staying here a week. I am hoping to write a little something in my blog several times during our stay. And maybe I can get Mommy to put some more pictures on my website, too. This is going to be great!
