This face perfectly describes our weekend - so much fun!!! We were so excited to have both of our families come in town this past weekend for Colt's blessing. Brielle absoultely LOVED seeing her "papas" (grandpas and grandmas), "Dadin", "Tent", and Kate! We have been extremely spoiled since we've moved to California...it doesn't really even feel like we moved that far away because we've seen family every single month since we moved in May. Spoiled much?...I think so! (or just the first to move away on either side of the family :)
We were able to spend the day on Friday with both families at Disneyland. It was nice to have family there because Jake and I were finally able to go on an adult ride together. It's been years since I've been able to enjoy something other than the Dumbo ride because I'm not prego anymore :)
Colt was a little stinker who decided that as a 2 month old, he didn't need any naps that entire day. Let's just say that it was quite the happy day for him... :)
On Saturday we went to a fun swap meet in Costa Mesa, and then headed off to the beach to enjoy the Cali weather and get our families out of the freezing Utah winter.
This is how Brielle started her beach excursion.... and ....
this is how she ended it. Let's just say that she got a little too brave :)
After a fun couple of days together, Sunday was the perfect day for the perfect blessing. We were so grateful that our families showed us the importance of church ordinances by both making the long, but short trip down here to be a part of Colt's blessing. We love them so much, and can't wait until they need another break from the cold ;)
As an answer to my prayers, Colt was actually alert and happy for his blessing. It was a beautiful blessing, and I'm so grateful for a husband who is close to the spirit to be guided as to what he should bless our first son with.
the whole group...except Liz Bratt (Kate's friend) our wonderful photographer!
Proud Dad
