Cayden’s Blessing Weekend

Man of the Hour

Cute Little Family

It was nice to only go a few days from when I said goodbye to Mom and Jess before seeing them again! Mom, Jess and little Jayson flew to Colorado Friday evening. I picked them up at the airport around 7:30pm and we went to Jared and Katie’s where we enjoyed a nice meal of ravioli soup (thanks Ro for the recipe!). That evening we found ourselves being entertained by the very slap happy Jayson. Babies are such time wasters!
Mom stayed with Jared and Katie while Jessica and Jayson stayed at my apartment.

Dinner Time

Jess and Jayson

Saturday morning Jared, Katie, Cayden, and Mom came over for breakfast. Then we just enjoyed a really lazy morning playing the Nintendo Wii. We got Jess hooked on bowling- good times! We went to Southlands that afternoon before heading back to my apartment to get dinner together. We had pork chops and stuffing with apples, rolls, and salad. That is three meals in a row that I have cooked- I should have company more often! That night we busted out the s’mores maker and played games.

Golf Anyone?

Sunday morning was the reason Mom and Jess came to Colorado. It was Cayden’s blessing today and Jared did a fabulous job. The meeting was wonderful with Jared, Katie, and Katie’s Dad all sharing their testimonies. Thanks all for making it special. After the meeting everyone headed over to Jared and Katie’s apartment for sandwiches. There was quite the full house with Katie’s family (everyone minus Beth and her husband), the Showell clan (minus Justin and Troy), Jess, Jayson, Mom, Grandma, and I! So, total there were 24 people there- good times. People stayed for quite a while before heading out. Mom and Jess didn’t fly out until 7:45pm, so we left at 5:45 to take them to the airport. It was a long night for them since their plane didn’t even leave until 8:40pm.

Party Time!

Great Grandma and Cayden

It really was a great weekend. I so love hanging with my family. Thanks Jess, Mom and Jayson for spending the weekend with us in Colorado! You are welcome any time!
