Tons of guests and family pics!

We've had a lot of activity at our house over the past few weeks. The weekend of August 13-15, my friend Chrystal and her family headed down for a visit. Chrystal takes wonderful pictures and she came to do Easton's 6 month photos as well as some family portraits on the beach! In addition to Chrystal's family, my parents, brother Bryce, brother Jacob and sister-in-law Ashley also headed down .We had a house full, but it was tons of fun! To see the pictures that Chrystal took, visit http://www.chrystalsimpson.smugmug.com/ and choose the "Daniel/Jones Families" album.

In addition to the photo session, we also had tons of fun! On Friday night we had a delicious seafood dinner at Crabby Mikes. Saturday included some of us visiting the beach, while others relaxed around the house. Before pictures on Saturday night we had a tasty chicken fajita meal. After the photo session we had ice cream sundaes and the adults had some "adult beverages" :-) Sunday included a quick trip to CVS and my Mom and I taught Chrystal all of our couponing tricks. She is definitely my new couponing prodigy!!!


Chrystal has two beautiful daughters, Kinsley and Ava Graye. Easton loved having the girls around and they were so good with him. They played with him, showed him books and entertained him the entire weekend. We were sad to see Chrystal's family leave, but all good things must come to an end, right? We managed to snap some pics before they headed out on Sunday afternoon .... and we're definitely looking forward to their next visit!

My parents took some vacation time and stayed with us through Sunday Aug 22nd. Our week consisted of a lot of good food, relaxing, playing with Easton and of course some coupon shopping! I also had a few doctor appointments throughout the week, so it was nice to have my parents there to take care of Easton. After spending 9 days together it was evident that both my parents and Easton were sad for the visit to come to an end. But thankfully we all live closer now, so the visits are more frequent!

Here's a cute video of Easton entertaining himself (and my Dad & me) - who needs toys when you can have this much fun???? :-) Enjoy!
