First Vacation (part 1)

We made our first trip back to Illinois as a family of 3 on June 8th. We spent the week visiting with family and friends and relaxing at Grandma and Grandpa's. We had a wonderful week and Payton was a perfect little traveler. She did great on the plane, sleeping through take-off and landing and quietly eating and playing during the flight. I'm posting a ton of pictures in no particular odder!

Kole's Aunt Lana and cousin Krista threw a little welcoming party for Payton to meet the whole Harms fam. They had wonderful food and decorations and it was so great to spend time with the whole family. Kole is the baby of 12 grand kids and Payton is now the baby of 14 great-grand kids, pretty special! Thanks Lana and Krista, we love you!!

Bathing in the new kitchen, Dick and Janaan just remodeled their kitchen and it's beautiful!

Payton slept great in Kole and Uncle Kyle's crib

Janaan worked hard to make a nursery for Payton and any future Harms babies and it's adorable!


We had to take out a "few" stuffed animals to make room for Payton. Here she is hanging with the animals we left in to keep her company. The look on her face is priceless

(Great) Grandma Audrey, (Great) Aunts Suzie and Luann came to visit and Payton was pretty enamored with them.

Marin and Finley were SO sweet with Payton and just wanted to hold her. Marin is patting her and telling her it's ok because she was crying. It was great to see you Marin and Finley, we love you!!!

  1. Hi, Shannon and Kole! Payton is a real cutie. Thanks for reminding me about the fun times in the mountains and lining up the kids on the tree root! I sure miss Granny too... Love, Uncle TX Mike
