26th Birthday in Colorado





Last week, I went to visit some friends in Colorado. My first stop was to see this beautiful family, the Solas. I was so excited to see them and couldn't wait to play with the boys. I got there late on Wednesday night after the boys had already gone to sleep. Kristy and I sat on the couch and talked until were both struggling to keep our eyes open. The next morning (on my birthday) I woke up to the sounds of Jaxten and Braylon playing in the living room...even though it was early, I couldn't wait to go downstairs! They were a little shy at first, but after sharing some of my cereal with me, we were best buds! Kristy and I took them to the park and captured some great pictures of them playing! It was so fun to swing with them...I haven't done that in a long time! Later that day, JJ and Kristy took me out to dinner at Chilis for my birthday. It was so funny watching Jaxten try to eat everything in site! After dinner, JJ drove me onto base, so I could see where he worked. It was really pretty!
Later that night, we sat around and watched the boys play and Kristy and I sat on the couch and talked...it was so relaxing! Once the boys were in bed, we made a late night run to Sonic so Kristy could experience Cherry Lime-aids for the first time. I think I got her hooked! The next morning, I had to leave. I was sad to leave them...but I am so glad I was able to spend my birthday with some of my favorite people. I already miss waking up to Braylon and Jaxten's smiling faces...even if it was at 7:00 in the morning.
Love you guys...xoxo
