We got to Grandma and Grandpa Smith Saturday morning. We hung out there for the day and went to our Aunt and Uncles house for "Smithmika". Chloe got to meet a bunch of family and get lots of loving. Then we went back home to open gifts from Grandma and Grandpa. We had a lot of fun doing that.

On Sunday the Uncles and cousins went back home and we just relaxed and watched football. Then the Petersen's came over and got to meet Chloe as well. I look forward to Maddie and Chloe being old enough to play together. That day will probably come too soon.

We headed out for the big drive back to Denver on Monday morning. With a packed truck and love filled hearts we made our way out of IA, through NE and finally back to CO.

We had such great traveling weather and love from our families, we couldn't ask for a better holiday!
Chloe in her car seat on the 10 hour road trip home on Monday. It was also my 30th b-day and spending the day with my family was a gift in itself.
Jackie and her daughter, Maddie 10 months old. Maddie and Chloe are two cute redheads and if you count me, make that three ;)
I think she likes it!
