Labor Day Weekend

Tommy and I decided to drive to Sacramento to surprise my mom and sister for the Labor Day weekend. We let my dad in on the secret, along with my brothers. My sister has never met Maya and has been DYING to meet her, my mom has been missing her baby tons. We left Wednesday when Tommy got off work, as you can see Maya is excited about the drive. The plan was to stop in Winnemucca, Nevada for the night but when we got there to gas up Tommy felt good and wanted to keep on going, so we did. Maya did AMAZING in the car there and back. She was happy and slept the majority of the drive. We snuck into my parents' house around 3:30 am without being detected (my mom heard us but thought it was my younger brother). Around 6:00 am grandpa took Maya and laid her in bed with grandma. It was a welcomed surprise! My mom called my sister to come over later that morning and she heard a baby's little cry, she was thrilled to meet Maya.

The weekend was filled with a trip to the Denio's Auction, In N' Out meals, Break the Fast with my dad's singles ward, and many new memories with family and friends.

Here are a snap shots of the fun we had...

Daddy and Maya recovering from the long drive the night before.

Maya with her cousin Payton. Payton even got Maya to fall asleep one night with her on her lap and shaking her legs. Good technique Payt!

The bikers. My family enjoys going on bike rides, we took the Honda and Tommy's bike doesn't fit. Sorry babe!

Sawyer wanted to take Maya along for the ride in his pack.

My friends Jenifer and Tiffany came by to visit and give Maya some loves.

Enjoying some peanuts picked up from the auction. They enjoyed cracking them more than eating them, Payton and Fallyn would crack them and give them to Macye and my dad to eat.

The girls had a nail party while the boys watched the BYU game.
