I little PREVIEW...

Jack and I are headed to Utah this week! We are going to fly to Utah to meet Grandma & Papa Russ, and then we will be taking the 21 hour drive home with them. Auntie Manda is graduating and we are very excited to see 3 Aunts (2 uncles) & our Cousin Sadie who is going to turn 1 in a week! (CRAZY!)

As a little warm-up for the LONG car ride, we took a little trip to Indiana this weekend. Jack did great on our 4 1/2 hour ride there and just ok on our way back. But our time there was FABULOUS!

Dan's cousin Laura was celebrating her recent marriage! This is Jack and his ________ (second cousin, second cousin once removed, who knows... Dan's cousin, Kevin's baby.) We tried to get the other cousin's kids, but it didn't work so well.

Grandma Diane met us there from North Carolina. Pretty lucky! She surprised Jack with a big kid soccer ball and a big Tonka Truck. Jack especially enjoyed walking on the dance floor and dancing with the bride during her "Dollar Dance." We skipped the swimming pool, but Jack did get to party with Grandma Diane in her room while I took a shower- Dan was still sleeping.

Our Friday before we left was nothing less than exciting! We got haircuts in the morning and playgroup and Grandma & Papa's house. You'll see more pictures of Jack's big kid haircut- but here it is! I LOVE IT!

Seth is walking this weekend, he graduated in Dec. But my parents are coming out here, and we're going to bless Scarlett Sunday too. I know it'll be a crazy, crazy busy weekend... but it'd be cool to see you guys! Seth's parents will be here too, so it really will be crazy.... but just sayin'
