We have returned safely from CA and are back home in Portland. We had a great time visiting with family, and especially enjoyed Bob and Cathy's beautiful wedding. It was a touching ceremony, and both Bob & Cathy appear very happy to be finally wed!
In all, traveling with Sydney was about what I expected. Not easy, but not overly difficult. Just kind of tiring. No more whooping it up at the wedding reception until the wee hours of the morning for Steve & Ana...Sydney was pretty much spent by 7 p.m. every night. But, annoyingly for the rest of us, she'd hang in there and keep her eyelids pried open until we would leave. So, for her little world, Syd partied like a rock star...getting to bed at 10 every night. And then short catnaps during the day. What a fantastic combo! But, in all, she held it together and managed to charm most of those around her. Much to Sydney's dismay, the only one who just would not warm up to her was Little Dog (Cathy's American Eskimo small white fluffy dog).
But, in all, we had a great trip and enjoyed ourselves. It was fun to reconnect with family, see how the little ones are getting so big and play a few rounds of Wii!

Of note, the picture above was taken at the wedding reception. Notice how Sydney is lying horizontal, yet strangely, not sleeping. As you can imagine, we left the party shortly after this.
