Colorado Trip

Last Saturday, I went down to Colorado with my family. Madison and I flew down early in the morning then Ross drove down to meet us on Wednesday. It was so fun to see my family. All of my siblings were in town because Rachel was getting baptized. 
Madison and I on the plane. She was so great on the plane! She woke up about 3 minutes before we landed.  Most people didn't even notice there was a baby on board.

 My dad, Melodie and Rachel picked us up at the airport. We dropped Melodie off at work on the way then we went home to party! (Actually just pick up the house before John and Cassandra arrived.)

 Then John and Cassandra arrived! I was so excited to see them because it had been awhile. They used to live down the street from us in Rexburg. We always did fun stuff with them until they moved to Texas. I couldn't wait to see them again! Cassandra loved Madison! They were instantly good friends.
I love this picture of Madison and Cassandra!
 John and Josie.
 Another great part of the trip was that Madison finally got to meet her cousin Josie. They enjoyed talking to each other while they were on the blanket.
 Madison and Josie with Opa. I think both of them got a little jealous of each other.
 Ross and Madison during Reagan's birthday party. There was a big water fight before. Luckily Madison was hungry right before it started so we couldn't participate. I wasn't disappointed but it looked like they had fun.
Rachel and Madison 
 We discovered that the best time to enjoy Madison is during the morning. She would get up right before everyone went to work and Rachel went to camp. She would give the biggest smiles. It was adorable.

Will, Julie, Reagan, Lincoln and McKinley got to Colorado when Ross did. We hadn't seen them since Thanksgiving. It was awesome to see them again. I collected awesome pictures of Lincoln the whole trip. He is basically a little stud. I don't know any other 4-year-olds that wear Beats.
 Lincoln was smiling like this (adorable) then Will told him to be tough. The result is below.

I know the rest of the picture is blurry but Lincoln is too cute.

 Emma, John and Cassandra.
 On Friday night we had our sibling dinner. This was my favorite part of the whole trip. We went downtown to Maggiano's. It is an amazing Italian restaurant. We had a blast. Will was learning the basics of Snap Chat and taking interesting pictures to send to everyone of his friends.
 Madison was pretty fussy during the meal. Thanks to Julie and Cassandra for helping us keep her quiet! Ross asked me to take her out and then they told the waitress about my birthday. I was shocked when she came with candles in the lemon Italian cookies. Everyone started singing happy birthday. I felt very loved from my family.
Cassandra, Emma and I found these pants at Burlington Coat Factory. We decided to be triplets for the day.

We had a great time in Colorado. It was so fun with all of the siblings to celebrate Rachel's baptism.
