... that Saturday is a special day!

Saturday morning, we ran over to Kell's for breakfast, then got all prettied up and took some family pictures!

It was an ordeal to set up this photo shoot, but who doesn't love beautiful pics of their family?? And in the end, we were all still friends. Even if all of my sisters said they were wearing dresses and then they all changed their minds and didn't tell me AND made fun of me for being the most dressed up.

After the pics, we hurried over to the church for Cutter's baptism!

#welcometodabtown

So proud of Cutter for wanting to be baptized! Love this kid so much!!! Kell planned a huge Cafe Rio dinner at her house after the baptism for everyone and it was delicious! We just hung out for the rest of the night and took it easy.

The next day, we went to church in Kell's ward, then had another big dinner at her house afterward. Mom needed to make some treats for her temple prep class that night, and since I have recently been crowned the queen of orange rolls, she asked me to help her make four dozen of them.

Course they turned out prettier than mine. Whatever.

Everyone else left town that night, but Matt and I had a few more days of fun planned!!!

... that we needed a vacation!

5 days after mom and dad left, we flew to California to see them! Cutter was getting baptized and we wanted to be there to support him! So we sewed up our clothes real quick...

And headed to the airport!

Jas slept the whole flight and Mom picked us up and took us to Mr. Noodle and Diddy Riese for lunch!

That night, everyone went to the bowling alley to hang out, and while bowling is not my favorite, we had a ton of fun!

I was way too tired to go to Rolling Pin with Jake when he got in at midnight that night... and I almost have no regrets. But we had to make sure we were ready for family pictures in the morning!

... that mom and dad came to visit?

Mom and Dad came to visit a week after Jas' birthday for conference weekend! Cue all the food:

Bruges for lunch,

We tagged along to Dad's mission farewell at a Chinese Buffet that was pretty good for dinner,

Beto's breakfast burritos to start conference off right (I had forgotten how much I LOVE them),

Peach cobbler and ice cream as an after priesthood snack,

Breakfast casserole and cinnamon AND orange rolls for breakfast on Sunday.

Visiting the Harrisons is not for the faint of stomach. Also, Mom has decided that my sweet rolls recipe is the best, so #winning

Jas LOVED all the attention with so many visitors around!

Mom and dad also brought Jas a birthday present: a new stroller, since she was growing out of her  infant one! It was a quick weekend, but anytime with Mom and Dad is great! Love you, Na Na and Grampus!

... that I bet you thought I couldn't drag this out for four posts, didn't ya?

Happy Birthday to my baby! You are the light of my life, my greatest joy, the most sweet, happy, perfect baby there ever was. I can't believe I have been a mom for a whole year! It has been everything I imagined it would be, and so much more.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
