California. Utah. 1st Birthday. Boating

In July we were able to go to California with my family for my cousin's wedding party. It was the first time that my family has been all together since my brother has been home from his mission. We had so much fun going to TK and Bethany's wedding reception - Hawaiian style! Congrats you two! You are such a great couple!

Me and Jordan and my brothers went to six flags magic mountain while in Cali and had a ton of fun (well, they did. Let's just say I will NEVER go back!)

Claire reading to Jadyn at the hotel. What a nice cousin!

After California I was able to go to Utah for a week and a half. Unfortunately Jordan had to go back to Ohio for school. It was good to see family and hang out with everyone - it always goes by way to fast.

I went to Olive Garden for my Birthday with my Aunts, sister, mom, and Grandparents

While in Utah we also did a little Birthday Party for Jadyn so all our family could celebrate her turning ONE!

Of course we had to do a party in Ohio for Jadyn's Birthday so her Dad could see her eat cake. My Friend Ellen volunteered to take pictures of the party and I happily accepted. Here are just a few! ( and I mean a few, she took like 400!)


She did this with her cake in Utah too, it was so funny!




One last thing to squeeze in this post... last weekend we went and did one of Jordan's most favorite things in the world - Boating! We had a lot of fun, thanks Chad and Kate for letting us come!


She thought she was so big steering the boat




One year pictures and stats are soon to come so stay tuned!

Crazy-Jadyn is 1?! She's such a cutie. That picture of her with cake all over her face is adorabe! I'm glad you got to come enjoy SoCal! We live like 45 min from 6 flags-and I agree with you, I won't go back there! :) I'm glad you got to spend time w/ family in Utah!
