Following Oregon we headed to Utah to spend some time with the Brady family. We had a lot of fun spending time with family and visiting friends. The snow was kind enough to follow us from Oregon to Utah. Luckily in Utah they have equipment to remove snow so we were able to get out and about. I know it's cliche but we made the obligatory trips to bajio and cafe rio while we were out there. They just don't know how to do that tex mex here in the dirrrty. Probably one of the biggest highlights of the trip was Gus's baby blessing. As parents it was a special experience. Gus did really well and didn't cry once during the whole blessing and managed to not have a blowout in his little blessing outfit, which was also a plus.
On Monday I had to head back to South Carolina to start school, but we decided that Allice should stay a few more days out west with the fam. As part of my husbandly duty I thought I'd better make a little post about our break and put up a few pictures of the little man. He's getting so big and everyday he does something new. We can't help but love him more and more.

Cute pics you guys. Looks like you had fun with all the fam. I am so jealous of the snow. Gus, as always, is so stinking cute.
He is soo cute! my mom was so excited to see you guys!
I heard about the storms on the west coast. It snowed like 2 feet in Seattle area which never happens! Crazy. How nice that you got to see both families. We blessed Brennan in Utah as well where family was around! I laugh about not having a blow out in the blessing outfit because I was happy about the same thing. I love how Gus is sucking his thumb. Brennan hasn't quite figured it out yet. He sucks his thumb and pointy finger together.
Awe...look at little Gus in his blessing outfit. Too cute. Looks like you might go into shock being back in SC with no snow! I will try to remember to take another baby bump pic before I go into Labor, but I am not making any promises :) Can't wait til we get a visit from you. Love you lots.
Oh, he is so precious you guys! I love the picture of him with his tongue sticking out! Too cute!
Gus' little blessing outfit is so cute. He looks so perfect and peaceful. That picture of Ford cracked me up. Will you please put Gus in a tie for church sometime? So cute.
