Mackenzie's Baby Blessing and Friends

We had a busy weekend but it was fun--we were able to spend a lot of time with friends and family and best of all, each other! (Travis and Jackie, you can think of Ms. McClellan and say "each other") Friday night we just hung out at home and then went grocery shopping. I'm huge on sales and making sure we get the best deal so we ended up going to 4 grocery stores, loaded up for the whole week for $50. I love finding good deals. At Safeway our first bill rang up to like$46 and then I had some coupons and it took it down to $19.
Anyway, on Saturday we drove out to Buckeye and met up with Steven's younger brother Derek at the Buckeye pool and the boys went swimming for a while but I drove back to Steven's parents. Chris and Kati's boys were there because they were gone for their anniversary so I had fun being entertained by them for a while! Later that evening we met up with some of Steven's friends from high school and had a barbecue and went swimming (sat in the jacuzzi was more like it). It was fun to see Steven with his "guy" friends and great to get out with other people.
Sunday morning we woke up, got ready for church and drove out to Surprise for Mackenzie's baby blessing. Her blessing dress was so stinkin' cute. I held it up to me and it went down to my knees--but it was so cute and girly. After the blessing we had a luncheon and then all of us kids went back to Josh and Trisha's and hung out. Amy was the only one missing because she lives in Utah so we'll excuse her! :o) Love you Amers!

I love being with my family. We have so much fun together and we all get along great! Here are some pictures from the weekend.Mackenzie's hair cracks me up.

Jeremy drove his work truck down from Bagdad and everyone thought it was "so cool". He even entertained the kids and put the crane up. All of the neighbors were probably wondering what we were doing :o)
