Jayden's 1st Birthday!

Jayden Turned 1 yesterday! We celebrated her birthday on Sunday! It was lots of fun!
We had church and then we came home and got ready for a BBQ.
We ate and had lots of fun with family! Even Mike, Ann, Jarom, Mitchell and Jimmy were there. My sisters and their families, my parents and brother were also able to come.
After we ate she opened gifts which she got a dress, cute pants and a little baby doll from her Aunt Sheri! Books from her Grandma Collins and her Uncles (Russell, Doug and Benson). Cute outfit from her Aunt Traci, Cute little Dollie that her Aunt Julie made her! It's so cute! You did an awesome job! A carseat from her Grandma & Grandpa Bland and her Mom & Dad. A gift card from her Uncle Chris (We get to go shopping :o) ) Then we also got her a little stuffed animal Monkey.
Thank you to all who came and those who brought gifts! We are so thankful!!!!
I just can't believe that she is 1. Time flies by so fast! She is just as sweet as ever!
She said Uh-Oh yesterday for the 1st time. So cute. She also says Mama where are you? (her cousin Tatelin sayd that, and so she learned that from her. It's sooooo cute!!)
she has 5 teeth and 4 coming in. She is just so sweet.

Javon & Emily's Wedding

We were able to make it to Javon & Emily's wedding. They were married in the Portland Temple and the sealing was amazing. They look so good together and are so happy. Emily made a very beautiful bride!
I only took a couple pictures with my phone, and I didn't get any pictures of Emily :( But here is a pic of Javon with cousins and friends.We were also able to go to their reception it was lots of fun! So fun to see family and friends! Congrats Javon & Emily!

Let's play catch up! :o)

This is little Jayden relaxing in her stroller. She always puts her feet up. She does that in carts at the stores too. She is so adorable.
Wow.. I haven't done a post in a while.. It seems like lots has gone on.. Let me see if I can remember all that has gone on..
We had some changes within our stake, they split 4 wards and made 5. I kept my same primary calling (I teach CTR 6 class, which my niece Denver is in). Denny was the Gospel Doctrine Teacher in our old ward, and now in the new ward he is the Young Men's President. It's fun and we both are loving it.
It's very fun that Jayden gets to see a few cousins everyday. They all make her laugh a lot. It's so cute.
Tatelin and her had some rough beginnings but I believe it's a lot better.
Denver, Tag and Jayden all get along very well.
Denver always asks: "How is Jayden so tan?" It's adorable. :o)
I wish she could be around all of her cousins all the time!
Denny is still looking for a job while he is also working hard on his online marketing. He has been working on getting quite a few websites up to sell supplements. It is coming along well, just a little bit slower than we would like, but at least it's moving! He has put A LOT of hours into this and we know it will pay off!
Today we went to Home Depot and bought a few plants to put in our house, it looks so nice with plants. Jayden loved looking at all of the flowers and plants they had. Of course she enjoyed all the people who smile and wave and say how cute she is. She enjoys the attention.
I hope I didn't miss anything.. I feel like I might be..
