After The Tenth..... When The Fun Really Begins

I know that the gaps between posts seems to be getting larger and larger, but until I can figure out how to stay home with Macy and then get paid for writing about her, I have to keep my job, which often times keeps me from writing updates. (Bummer) Recently there was a gap that was even larger than normal. It was difficult getting an opportunity to document the day's events since we were on the next leg of the Macy World Tour. Prior to the arrival of the Kupper side of the family, we had a number of "firsts" which included Macy getting to use her Passport.

That's right, I said passport; as in a United States Passport which gives you the ability to travel abroad. When Macy turned the ripe-old age of 4 1/2 months, we schelpped her off to the nearest passport office and submitted her application. The passport picture lady worked really hard to get a great photo of the baby for her documentation and she succeeded. I really wanted to scan it and include in this post, but there are probably at least 13 federal laws against scanning and posting your passport, plus the added identity theft issues, so I passed. If you swing by the house, ask to see it and I'll proudly bust it out.

So where did Macy go? Probably someplace "typical" and close, right? Wrong!
How about Trinidad and Tobago, a mere 7 miles northeast of Venezuela!!!

I have some friends from work who were getting married in Trinidad, and we got invited, so how could we say no???? (The groom is a Trini and the bride is from Sri Lanka) [Next year they are getting married in the bride's hometown; not sure if we will get invited or if we could ask Macy to withstand the 13 flying  hours it takes to get there, but maybe I should start saving up vacation days just in case.] As you'll be able to see below, Macy was a big hit at the wedding, including with the father of the bride.

Here are some photos from the wedding and from our days relaxing on the beautiful island of Tobago.
