Jared took Friday off and we headed to Salem for the weekend, our first trip since Nora was born. It was a nice long weekend and we saw lots of family.
Jared's family has had a LONG week. He had 2 uncles in the same ICUwith non-related issues. His Uncle David Collier is still very critical in Mt. Vernon with multiple system failures but showing signs of improvement. And his Uncle Edwin Phillips was taken to the hospital last week after suffering a major heart attack. He has since had open heart surgery and is home recovering. Thanks to lots and lots of prayers. More prayers are needed for David and Ed's recovery at home.
Anyway, we had planned this trip to Salem before any of this happened, so it was good to be able to be there, see family and show our support. So, Friday afternoon, we went to the hospital. It was Nora's first introduction to most of the Collier clan and they were happy to meet her. Ethan had fun in the waiting room playing with some of the cousins.

The rest of the weekend, we pretty much just hung out. Libby and her girls, Haley and Katie were also in town. And it was their first time meeting Nora as well. Katie and Nora are 2 1/2 months apart. We are sure they will be best friends!
