PERFECT weekend!

This weekend was absolutely wonderful!  It was a little warm but BEAUTIFUL!  To say we were busy would be an understatement.  We had cousin Elyn's 2nd birthday party, pictures made with Santa, attended a baby shower and started veggies...squash to be exact. :)  Even amidst all the chaos and fighting a cold, Sawyer was super sweet and just went with the flow.  I guess I should just keep him this busy more often!

This is the Japanese Maple in our back yard.  Sawyer loved the red and just kept grabbing at it...like he does everything (so long "dangly" earrings)!



This is me trying squash for the first time....haha!  Although this initial reaction looks like I hated it I actually ate EVERY SINGLE BITE!!!!

Elyn is 2!!!! Her party was so much fun and a had the cutest theme.  It was pancakes and pajamas.  All the kids looked super cute in their pj's and this mommy will find any excuse to wear pajama pants.

 The table was set up like a bed!

 How cute is this cake!?!?!?

It was so nice getting to visit with Mimi, Earl & DD, Grandaddy & Clara, cousins Jessica & Ever, Aunt Jennifer's family and meeting some new friends.  I can't wait to get back the photos from our visit with Santa and share them with you all.  The Santa & location were perfect! (Jared would probably beg to differ because it was an hour away on a Saturday game day but he'll be glad we did it one day).
