Jonas' Blessing!

We got to head out to Lovelock, NV a couple weekends ago for the blessing of our handsome nephew, Jonas! 

He was born a month-and-a-half after Sadie, and I LOVE that she has a cousin so close in age!! I seriously love taking pictures of them together. They will have to deal with it for the rest of their lives.

Amanda and Brad let us stay with them, which was awesome. We really like those guys. We drove up Friday night. Sadie was a bit harder on this road trip, just because she is much more aware and gets bored now. She would get so stoked when we got out of the car though.

When we got there, baby Jonas was still up so we got to cuddle him!

Saturday was really fun. We relaxed and laid around doing nothing for a long time, which is my favorite thing to do on Saturdays. But the weather was so nice, we knew we needed to get out. So we headed to the park for a while, then walked to get some ice cream. Their little town is so cute!!

Ummm.. can't handle it

Scout, the best dog! I want her

Look at Sadie eyeing my ice cream haha

Checking out all the love locks in Lovelock!

Brad made us a pretty bomb dinner, and then we hung out until Grandma and Grandpa Merkley and Uncle Jaden came over!

Clark was so sweet. He kept saying, "I'm giving her her toy, and she likes it because she likes me."

Cousin love

I love this picture that Amanda took of my father-in-law. He's such a stud.

I don't think Clark could handle the excitement. He fell asleep like that.

Sunday came and Jonas was looking like a baby model in the cutest little outfit I have ever seen. Brad gave a beautiful blessing! I always get all teary when these wee babies are blessed and I think about the life they have in front of them and how quickly they will grow. It's crazy! I remember Clarky being blessed! And he just turned 6!

Look at that little smirk. I can't handle it.

Some of Brad's family came out too, and we had some lunch and hung out at the Robison's before we had to leave. I always hate leaving. AMANDA WHY DON'T WE LIVE NEXT DOOR TO EACH OTHER?!!

Why are my nephews the coolest?

Again with the smirk, Jonas. He's already a flirt!

Sadie and I both look reeeaallly tired in this picture. It's probably because we were.
