Jimmy had the 24th and 25th off of work, so we had a 4 day weekend!
Thursday morning we went swimming, it was a little chilly at first. I love how in the above picture, Jimmy and Zeke have the same reaction to the water.
After Zeke’s nap we went up to Jimmy’s grandparents’ cabin in Oakley for a family reunion with our whole family on Jimmy’s side. (We missed Dan, but we’re happy he’s serving in Detroit.) We all piled into a little 2 bedroom, A-frame cabin. It reminded me of a line in the song “Grandma’s Feather Bed”-”…we didn’t get much sleep, but we had a lot of fun…”
Zeke’s first time walking a dog
Zeke sat down and folded his arms during our walk, it was really cute. We think it’s because we have a little baby book about Joseph Smith and how he knelt and prayed in the woods. Zeke has been wanting to read that book a lot lately.

Brothers with their boys.
Zeke started singing to Jimmy while he was falling asleep, it was so sweet.
Saturday evening we went to Uncle Brandon’s (Samantha’s younger brother) missionary call celebration BBQ. He’s going to Riverside, CA! Zeke enjoyed the Cheetos, and pasta. The food was so yummy! Jimmy kept saying, “Wow, that was good!” On the way home, he told me 3 times to get the mango salsa recipe too.
Zeke wanted to share his car sucker with Sam
Zeke konked out within minutes after the BBQ, it was a great weekend!
Love the sitting down with folded arms pictures. Too precious!
You guys look cute and VERY happy. Zeke is so lucky to have you guys in his life. Congrats again!
That sounds like so much fun, I love 4 day weekends. That is such a cute picture of Zeke folding his arms.
Looks like a really fun weekend! That picture of him folding his arms is priceless – how sweet!
I just read/heard the Grandma’s Feather Bed story at Kevin’s Mom’s house. I think those are the best kind of family get togethers–when you’re all piled up on top of each other!
Looks like you guys had a blast last weekend! Zeke is so dang cute! I LOVE his smile and eyes. He is such a happy baby! Can’t wait tell we get together again.
Looks like you guys had an awesome holiday weekend! I love those pictures
