11th Anniversary and Family Trip

Saturday February 19th was our 11th Anniversary!! I decided that we needed to "Get Away" for a night. We haven't gotten to just be together without the Girls, well....since way before Aspyn was born. We had already planned that weekend to go to St. George to see our families, so I asked my mom if she would watch the Girls for us, she said Yes! So, I booked us a room at the Garden's Bed & Breakfast in Toquerville for Friday night. It was so nice! The room was very cozy, and a pretty good size. It had a fireplace, a huge king size bed, and a HUGE jetted tub! It was decorated very, very nice. It didn't have a TV, so we actually got to just talk. Something we haven't really been able to do for sometime. It had an old record player that we never figured out! It was so relaxing just to be there together! I hope that we'll be able to get away a little more often together this year. We were long overdue!!

11 years seems to have passed very quick! We've had some really high Highs, and some very low Lows, but we are together and we are better than ever! We've definitely changed from the people that we were when we got married, but we have changed together. We've grown together has people, parents, and friends. I'm very glad that we worked through whatever was thrown at us, that tried to pull us apart. Every obstacle has made our relationship stronger! I love you Cody, and Happy 11 years!

 Ashley, Rusti, and Tanner were finally able to meet Aspyn. Rusti was so cute with her. She kept trying to give her the Mimi (binki)! She would give her hugs and kisses and just kept pointing at her and saying "baby"! I couldn't believe how grown up Rusti has gotten since October. She looks so much like Ashley (Gorgeous!), and her personality is so very cute. I miss her so much. Seeing Ashley was so great. She looks amazing being 32 weeks pregnant. I really hate being so far away from my family. Being there this weekend makes me realize just how much I am and will be missing out on. It's sad.

Saturday afternoon we made our way down to Mesquite. Cody's family had never met Aspyn and Cody had never met Jadon. Everyone finally met! Jadon & Aspyn "talked" to each other for about 5 minutes. They were so cute together. Jadon kept trying to grab onto Aspyn. It's funny how much they look alike. They both have this little pin hole thing on their left ear. It's weird, Cody, Jordyn nor Chad have one. Just the two little cousins! It was fun seeing the Survis family again. It has just been way too long! I hope that they will all be able to come over here in the Summer. 

Sunday we spent time with my family at my parents house. Had dinner, just relaxed and visited. I really didn't want to leave!  Monday afternoon we stopped by my Grandma Esmeier's house for a little visit, stopped in to see my Grandpa Taylor for a few minutes and hit the road to go home.

This weekend went way too fast. It was definitely worth the long drive to be able to see both families for such a short time. We miss them all so much, and really wish that we could see them more. I'm hoping that when the Summer is blazing hot there, they will want to come visit us in our cooler town!!

I Love My Families!! Thank you all for the fantastic weekend. Lets do it again soon!!
