Mackey family reunion

On Sunday morning, Aaron, Wyatt, and I got up and drove to Des Moines to meet Aaron's parents. From there, we carpooled to Council Bluffs and picked up Aaron's Grandma on our way to the Mackey family reunion in Missouri Valley. While we were there, Aaron's Aunt Becky celebrated Wyatt's first birthday, as you can see below by the balloons!

He got a new little car to drive around - such a big boy!

He also had a birthday cake - Daddy had to blow out the candle. Wyatt was being a little shy at this point. :)
He got over being shy once he tasted the cake!

Here is a picture of all five generations (according to Wyatt): Great-great Grandma Mackey, Great Grandma Brummer, Grandpa Brummer, Daddy, and Wyatt. Wow!! Grandma Mackey is 104 years old!
Another shot - I think Daddy was tickling Wyatt. :)

Chilling with Grandpa...

Wyatt met his second cousin Blair - he really wanted out of the chair until she sat next to him.

I think he likes her. :)

Anyway, it was neat to meet some of Aaron's extended family. It was a lot of driving - I think we agreed that next time we will try to go the night before! :)

Tonight, Aaron and I got the rest of the wallpaper down in the living room. I went back and scrubbed the rest of the glue off. Now my arms are burning!! Maybe tomorrow we will be ambitious again and prime the walls. We'll see!
