Owen's 1st B-Day Celebration in CO...

So last week Owen and I decided to be very courageous and take our first road trip without Brandon to go visit all his family up in Colorado. Luckily a friend of mine let me borrow her DVD player for the car ride. It was a huge life saver, Owen watched his Elmo DVD about 4 times on the trip up and another 4 on the way back. Owen had such a fun time with all his family, although he was getting a little frustrated since most of the houses we stayed at weren't "Owen Proofed" he heard the phrase "No Owen don't touch that" a little too often! While we were there Brandon's very generous family decided to have Owen a first Birthday party since they won't be able to come down for his actual Birthday in a few weeks :(. Owen was very spoiled and got so many fun toys and a much needed new summer wardrobe. The trip was very worth it! Owen is such a lucky little boy to get two 1st Birthday parties! Check back in a couple weeks for his actual 1st Birthday Party!

Best Picture EVER of Owen and Grammy Becky!
Owen loved for me to read his Birthday cards to him since they reminded him of books, which are Owen's favorite things to play with. He has me read to him all day long.
Owen LOVED his new Fire Truck that his Tia Rose gave him.
