Spring blog post catch up... here we go! First up - G. Betty's 80th birthday

At the end of April, our family headed to the east side of the state to celebrate my Grandma Betty's 88th birthday, my mom's 60th birthday, and to have a visit with my aunt and uncle who were visiting from Santa Fe! We haven't seen Uncle Paul and Aunt Mary-Margaret since our wedding about 8 years ago. This was their first time meeting Camryn and Taylor, which was extra fun.

Jeff, Jen, Tess, Mem, and our family stayed overnight at a hotel during the visit. We got there on Saturday afternoon, and had lots of time to hang out at Grandma Betty's apartment.


At the hotel the next morning, we had a fantastic breakfast, and time to play in the pool there, too. :)







There was a big celebration brunch midday on Sunday - a whole birthday party planned by my mom and aunt and uncles. My uncle made a CD of songs from the year she was born, there was a trivia game about facts about what life was like in the 1920's (which I did horribly at :)), and cake and presents. :)







After food and fun, we went outside in an attempt at a family picture. After the long day, and no nap for Camryn, it was a little work to get the kids to cooperate for a family picture afterward, but it was still great to capture all of us being together! :)






And on the drive home, Cam fell asleep pretty fast. :) Tuckered out girl from all the fun. :)

It was a great birthday/reunion/family visit! :)
