Family

You made your first big road trip when you were only 3 months old. 15 hours in the car, from Chesapeake, VA to Niceville, FL. You weren't too happy on the last leg of that journey! But it was worth the trip...you got to see all of the family that loves you so much. Your Grandpa Purcell and gramma gilda, Grammy and Grampy and ALL of your aunts and uncles...your cousin Caleb, and your great grandma Winn! You and I got to stay in Florida for a whole month. You were loved to pieces by everyone there. We can't wait to go back!

You loved being at Grammy and Grampy's house. There was always someone to play with! You loved talking to Uncle Ben, snuggling with Grammy and listening to Uncle J play piano and guitar. He had a special lullaby he would play for you that always put you right to sleep. You also loved watching basketball with Grampy...

You also went on your first plane ride to get back home to Virginia. You were a good boy on the plane, I think you enjoyed it. Especially the part where mommy walked around the airport while you slept comfortably in your stroller! Everyone that saw you commented on how cute you were. My sweet Julian, you have had an adventurous life so far!

Love,
Mommy
