My BIG weekend!!!

We just finished up a wonderful weekend. Family drove many miles combined and many of our friends showed up to help us celebrate two special events. Grandma Della, Kelly, Aunt Liz, Uncle Pete and Aunt Jane and cousins Trey, Ethan, Whitney, Brandon and Annika came all of the way from Colorado, and Nana, Grandpa Chuck, Aunt Dana, Uncle John and Aunt Samantha came from St Louis.

On Saturday, we had Hudson Andrew baptized. He didn't even cry when the pastor took him and was making the whole congregation giggle with his curious little face with the water coming down his face! Luckily, it didn't get in his eyes since his Aunt/Godmother Dana thought he needed some hair gel to hold up his curls!!!

Then on Sunday, we celebrated the little guy's birthday and boy did we all have fun! We went to a local pizza shop as that is one of his favorite foods. Little did he know he would get to experience his own little cake when he was done. He had a blast digging into his cake and couldn't decide if it was more fun to smash it on his face, eat it, share it with his friends, clap his hands with it, or dump it on the floor! He then had a mini bath in the bathroom sink with Nana and Aunt Sammy and enjoyed it equally as much!!!

We were so lucky to celebrate these milestones with all of our favorite people and family and friends and thank you all so much for making the hike to Kansas City!!! We did learn one thing this weekend though....the house is getting a bit small for the growing family so we put the "sign" up in the yard this weekend. We are sad already about having to leave this community, but look forward to a bit more space, maybe our own garage and bigger closets!!!

Here is a slideshow from the weekend - I couldn't pick just a few cute photos so I thought I could post more this way. Enjoy!!!
