Fox Reception

We decided to make our way out to Colorado for Spencer and Bethany's reception. It was a quick trip.

Cedrik drove out (a 14 hour trip that should be 11) with TF and Donna. Opa and my uncle Joel also rode with them. They all said he did really well. He played the kindle quite a bit from what I heard and even got a fancy ice drink from Starbucks.

Freddie was really disappointed he didn't get to go with them. BUT he did get to eat about 6 cups of raspberries. Jara's raspberries were ripe and she happily kept picking handfuls for Freddie. He couldn't eat them fast enough! It was really nice.

That night we got to watch Grandma and Chari remove 5 bats that had gotten into the fireplace. Pretty funny to watch!

We drove to Colorado and when we got in I helped make salads for the reception and Jordan hung out with the guys in the garage and held Marie.

My grandpa showed up and we were all so happy to see each other. He loves his great-grandkids. We ordered pizza for dinner since it had been a long day for everyone. We woke up early, got ready and mom headed to the reception venue to decorate. She did a wonderful job. The reception was nice and I had fun seeing people I haven't seen in years and introducing Jordan to some family he hasn't met before. I even had a chance to talk to Spencer and Bethany-more than I thought. There's always so many people to talk to at receptions. They also asked me to give a toast and I did get a couple of laughs-I must have said a few funny things.

That night was dinner at Mom and Warren's and more time with family. It was another long day. We left early the next morning and drove to Utah. We played some hilarious games that night and drove home early the next morning. It was a really fast trip. I'm so glad Jordan drove us to Colorado. I love him.
