[BUSY Weekend]

02.01.14

The last little bit has been crazy busy. One of those weekends was at the beginning of February. 

It started off with the girls and I going to a ward baptism while Chris took Alex and Cooper to a family baptism. (Nick was at a merit badge fair) Afterwards we headed to Jordyn and Everett's Wreck it Ralph birthday. I should have taken more pictures because as always Amber went all out and their party was so cute! After the party we ran home and threw a few things in a bag and Chloe, Cooper, Aubrey and I headed to St. George for the night while Chris and the other 2 boys stayed home to paint the kitchen and cabinets. We got there in plenty of time to stop at Swig for some cookies and do a little shopping. We stopped by Chelsea's to hang out for a bit before we headed to our hotel. We were up and out of there early to get to Harper's baby blessing. After sacrament we headed back to the Holt's for lunch and the Superbowl. My plan wasn't to stay so long, but we were all having so much fun hanging out and eating so much yummy food we didn't want to leave!! It was such a great weekend!!

It is kind of tradition that when we go up to Reno for the Jeakin's family Christmas party the guys go snowboarding and the girls (and kids) go shopping. 

So that is exactly what happened. I think the guys definitely get the better deal!

Nick got to go this year for his first time and totally loved it.

Nick LOVES being with Dad, Grandpa, Jordan, and Joey so that was a bonus!
