Fabulous Weekend

This past weekend Rylee, Jackson and I headed to Denver to be there for my nephew, Jacob, blessing. He was born 1 month before Jackson and I was so excited to meet him. Several members of my family came as well so it was fun to be with them too. With everyone spread out through the U.S. the time we get to be together is cherished time.


My flight wasn't suppose to leave until 7:53 p.m. Friday, but it was only because I had my dates screwed up on when Sean would be out of town when I booked it. When I found out I had the wrong dates, we changed my flight to Friday morning so I could spend as much time as possible with my family.
We left early Friday morning so I have to say a huge thank you to Grandma Shayla for staying with Tayler and Jayson all day Friday so that I could leave that early and enjoy my time.
We arrived 15 minutes after Jenny flew in so she was there when we got off the airplane. It was SO awesome to see her standing there as we came up the ramp. I love that girl! After we got our stuff together we headed out to meet Julie. We were all so excited to see her too. My mom flew in at 12:30 so Jared picked her up and then we all met up at Mimi's Cafe for lunch. Hooray- the gang was all there at that point & the party began!

Jared and Cayden

We sat right below a table that said "Jackson Square" so we had to get a picture. Very fitting don't you think?
Grandma & Jackson- such a cute picture!!
After lunch we shopped a little bit and then went back to Jared and Katie's to hang out and see Katie since she had to work Friday.
Sunday was the big day for sweet little Jacob and Jared did such a fabulous job on the blessing.
What a cute little family! Jared, Katie, Cayden and Jacob
My awesome family
Sisters- I love them!
After the blessing we went over to Katie's parents house who put on a delicious spread for everyone. Thank you!

Rylee thought she was funny & adorned Jared with her accessories


The 2 cousins- Jackson and Jacob (my brother Ryan and his wife Marcela had their baby 2 weeks after Jackson was born. That will be so fun at family functions to have 3 so close!)

My cute little traveling buddy

After the blessing and lunch we went over to Annie and Steve's house to visit and play. I love that we were able to see all of them as well while there. They are such an awesome family.
A big shout out to my fabulous husband for letting me go & encouraging me to go- even over Valentine's Day- and being Mr. Mom to my 2 other kiddos. He is terrific and is always so nice to arrange everything so that I can go. Thank you. Love you babe!
