The Dinosaur is 1!

Jaxson's Birthday this year we where up north at Jensen's parents house for the week and so they where nice enough to let us wreck their house and invite people over and have a party. They also where AWESOME and rented out a blow up slide which was a hit for ages young and old. The kids had so much fun going down the slide, jaxson was a little timid at first but then by the end of it we couldn't get him down it fast enough. We had a pirate themed party for his 1st birthday. It was a lot of fun we where able to have a lot of family and friends and everyone we loved and cared about be there. Thank you everyone for all the gifts he sure did get spoiled. Its just crazy how its been 1 whole year sense he was born. I cant imagine what my life was like before he came into this family he is a wild crazy man that is now starting to get into EVERYTHING!!!!

Oct is a very special month for me, not only is it my favorite holiday of all time but jensen and i meet for the first time on the 7th and we have tons of birthdays. My Niece Taylors is the 9th, Jensen's is the 11, My Brother Asa is the 14, My niece Olivia is the 23, and last but not least the crazy dinosaurs is the 27th. This month too we also got to have Jensen's brother Matt come home from his mission on the 13. I feel like Oct just flew by with everything that we have had going on.

First of all poor Jensen we didn't really celebrate his birthday it kind of got skipped over. I did buy him Madden video game and bake him cupcakes, but other then that poor jensen got a pretty lame birthday. I was able to get off work the rest of the week and we drove up north to highland to get ready to pick up matt. Matt got home from his mission from El Salvador, he flew in Thursday night way late at 11 and of course in true RM fashion he had to be one of the last ones off the plane. It was great seeing him again, but i hate to tell you Matt you look if not exactly the same as when you left. Poor jaxson he had a long night cause after we picked him up at the airport we went to IHOP, and we all know the fun doesn't stop there once we finally got home i put Jr to bed and we all stayed up and got to talk to Matt and receive our awesome salvadorian gifts.
The next morning i still have no idea whose idea it was to get up and do this but we had our family pictures and jaxson's 1 year pictures. Jaxson was fussy, i was just plain old awnry and tired, and well jensen was trying to calm us both down long enough for pictures. :) Thankfully we got some great pictures and we all got to take our nap afterwards too.
