Memorial Day Weekend

This last weekend we had the opportunity to go to Sacramento to see Jeremy's mom, her wife, and his siblings.  We spent time in Sacramento and had a day trip to San Fransisco. Madelynn got to meet her cousins, Landon and Devry, as she was still in the hospital when Landon came to Utah. It was a very pleasant trip, with great memories made.

We arrived in Sacramento late Friday night.  The next day we went over to Gerald and Lisa's to see them, Landon, and our new niece Devry.

On Sunday we made our way to the coast.  Jeremy had been there before, but all I had ever done was cross over the bridge.  I was really excited to see my hippie and homo brethren. We went to Pier 39 to have lunch, browse the shops, and ride the carousel.

And a trip to San Francisco would not be complete without....naked men.

Monday morning it was time to leave.  Madelynn fell asleep right away, and slept for 3/4th of the trip.

The Newest Hurst

Introducing our newest niece, Ms. Devry Mihrea Hurst.

(I am pretty sure that's how you spell her middle name).

Born May 27th at 3:35 AM. Weighing in at just over 8 pounds.

More Ms

Last weekend Grandparents Jones had both of the kids. Mom captured some great moments.

The M and Ms

Matthew and Madelynn love riding in the grocery cart together.  At Macy's the kids were in a truck cart.  They loved "driving" it. 

Sealing Pictures Part Deux

I stole my mother's laptop, and have added more photos from Mom and John's sealing on March 19th.

Popa's Playground

My father has been watching Madelynn for us.  Now that it appears Spring may be here to stay, Dad and Angela have gotten creative in their yard.

With the stroller being at our house, they had to do a make shift stroller.  Yes, I am aware of the hat on my child, and I am not happy about it.  

 Once at the park, Madelynn loved the slide.

The next day was a bit chilly, so Dad, Angela and Madelynn stayed in and made cookies.

Some how  Madelynn has figured out how to turn on the Rhapsody feature of my phone.

Madelynn's Cookie

She doesn't seem that enthused by it, but she really did love the little chips o'hoy cookie Daddy gave her.

Playing in Grandma's Yard

On Saturday we went to celebrate Grandma Myker's birthday.  It was nice, warm, and sunny.  Madelynn had the opportunity to play outside on the swing set.  She seemed to really enjoy it.
