So the weekend before Christmas was an exciting one because it was the first time we did a mini trip with Sammy Jay to visit my family in Michigan. And lucky for us he was a trooper and slept the whole car ride!
The trip consisted of two major events- Sherman's First Birthday party & my Aunt & Uncle's 25th Wedding Anniversary!
(How cute is that cake! And it's more awesome because it was homemade!)
Sherman's birthday was really nice. We got to see some extended family and got to eat a lot of cake and ice cream! This weekend we were pretty much on a sugar high the whole time!
After a short visit, we had to hit the road again so we could make my aunt and uncle's vow renewal ceremony.
The ceremony was fairly short but it was very sweet and full of love! And being that the ceremony was short, we didn't have to wait too long before the fun could get started at the reception!
Sammy Jay got to meet both of his great grandparents on my mom's side of the family!

And no reception with be complete without some dancing! Sammy Jay joined me on the dance floor for my favorite line dance- The Cupid Shuffle!
Now a Michigan trip wouldn't be complete unless I got to visit with my other grandma as well, so before we headed home on Sunday- we met up with my grandma, uncle Dave, and aunt Linda for lunch!
Even though we were very tired from all the festivities, I couldn't have asked for a better time/ way for Sammy Jay to meet the majority of my extended family!
For us, Christmas events were spread over the course of 4 days (24th-27th) so instead of recapping all the days- here are just some pictures of Christmas morning which we hosted at our house for my family!
