Florida

Jason's mom was going to Florida with a couple of families she nannies for and she asked us to join her for a fun weekend getaway. Jason's brother, Timothy also came! It was a whirlwind weekend of flying, driving, eating, playing , swimming, hugging and so much more. Levi did really well on the flights, his first time flying! He didn't sleep and was constant motion but no tears! We got to spend one day at the pool and beach. The hotel Beth (mom) was working at (she was watching a baby girl while the rest of the family went to disney world) was huge and amazing. It had a hawaii theme and so everyone greeted us with Aloha! We got to stay with my good friends Adam and Arissa who lived about an hour away. They have a new little boy, Nehemiah who is just adorable. Levi loved watching him and patting his back.
Levi loved getting to know his grandbeth. He even gave her a kiss before we left! He got all the attention any little boy would want! Thank you Grandbeth for a fun weekend!!
Uncle Tim looking very festive !

Levi giving Time "cheers" with his sippy cup. A favorite trick his grandpa taught him.


Arissa with Nehemiah (10 weeks). Arissa and I have been friends since high school and have always kept in touch. We're hoping they get to move back to Colorado someday...She is a blessing in my life!


Trying to get a group photo, it was late and Levi had had enough. We definitly pushed his limits this weekend but he did great!

It was fun to see palm trees everywhere! something you don't get in Colorado!

Sea gulls were everywhere! They are loud and kind of pesky but fun to take pictures of.

I love it when he sits like this, so cute!

Merry Christmas!!



My mom and dad came and spent a couple of days with us, it was very special.
My bro, jon.


Spencer and Jason being tough! It was nice that Spencer and Becky cam up for christmas eve, even though it is their honeymoon!! We had the whole Jarvis clan up and the new meyers of course too =)
Becky got Levi this funny monkey, his arms and legs can get really long or really short. It's hilarious and Levi loves him!






Levi had the best time just taking the lid of this box on and off and putting the blocks away. He's a very tidy person =)
Jason and Jon put this jungle gym together christmas morning. It has a climbing wall a rope ladder and a slide. Levi is quite the climber and figured it out in no time. now he can work out while mommy does her work outs!








Our happy boy! It was a wonderful Christmas with family and tons of food! Levi enjoyed all of his gifts so thank you everyone! The ornaments are precious grandbeth! can't wait to see you in January!

getting ready for christmas!





Levi did really well at not pulling on the tree. But he did love to look at the presents and take the ornaments off.

Levi and the snowman...

Levi loves to play outside. Nevermind that it takes more time to dress and undress him than it takes him to get cold and want to come in =) We built a snowman, our first one! Well ok, I built it but he liked watching me;)
With so many clothes and big snow boots he doesn't really move when he's in the snow, he just stays where you put him and pats the snow. It's really funny.





Hip hip hooray!

Becky and Spencer's wedding!




Mr & Mrs. Meyer













My Siblings! Becky, Anita, Jon and me

My brother, Jon, finally back from Uganda!! He looked so handsome in his suit.

Becky and my dad having their dance.

The wedding was on monday evening and it was beautiful! Everything came together smoothly and it was a nice intimate ceremony with about 45 guests. It was nice to see old friends again and Levi did so well! He walked down the isle with me and Jason and then stayed in jasons arms for the ceremony. He loved all the attention ! He was so adorable in his little tux!
Becky was stunning in her dress and spencer looked quite proud! Welcome to the family Spence!
