Our Adventure Back East

So... we moved to Landover, Maryland for the summer (Bryce is selling alarms) and we will be here until the end of the summer! It has been really fun getting to know our new place, and it was really fun being able to visit Bryce's sisters/brother on our way out here (we drove... and it is a very long drive:). The part that wasn't so fun was saying goodbye to home, and to our family who we were able to spend so much time with! But we are excited for our little summer adventure here in Maryland!!!

OUR GOODBYES.....

We said goodbye to Bryce's sister Crystal and her family, to Suzanne, and to Katie (we miss you guys!)
Bridger said goodbye to Diamond
We had to say goodbye to our nephews Jordan and Josh- who are both leaving on their missions this summer

They are going to be awesome missionaries!
We said goodbye to my parents and to Whins- we already miss them so much!

My dad was making Bridger laugh so hard!

OUR TRIP BACK EAST....
We traveled for three days- which was really fun!
We ate lots of snacks, drank lots of pop, stayed in some fun hotels,
had fun in the car, talked, laughed, and got SO tired of driving after the third day!
Then we were able to stop in Ohio to see Bryce's sister Camille and her
family, which was really fun!

Bridger loved playing with Taylor
The boys had to fit in a basketball game
Rob and Tara (Bryce's br0) were able to come to Camille's to see us and we had an Easter egg hunt with all of the kids- thanks Tara!
Bridger loved looking for the eggs

We had the yummiest Easter dinner at Camille's house too!

This is how Bridger looked 3/4 of the trip- HE WATCHED SO MANY MOVIES!!!

We were able to visit Bryce's sister Emilee and her kids too!

WE MADE IT!!!
We have been in Maryland for a little over two weeks now... and it has been really fun!
Bryce works so much, so when we get to be with him it is an absolute TREAT!!!

Bridger and Bryce doing push ups!
We built a fort, and watched a movie inside- it was really fun
UNBELIEVABLE
Bridge loves his bubble gun, so I just had to capture the proudness
Bridger grabbed a hat and put it on when I wasn't looking... it looked so funny, so I had to join in!

Bridger's Birthday- 2 Years Old

Bridger's birthday was so much fun this year! He could tell that it was an exciting day (and was so proud all day long)! It was cute because he would say "BIRTHDAY" and acted like he knew what it meant! I think he did, because he walked around like he knew it was his BIG DAY!

We were able to spend some of the day with Bryce's sister Crystal and her family because it was also her twin boy's Birthday- so we had a combined birthday party for all three! It was so much fun... We LOVE being with them!

Bridge and Suzanne- she knew exactly what to get him!

He was so proud all day!

Katie and Grace!

The BIRTHDAY boys! Jordan, Bridger, and Josh (they turned 19)

Crystal made them each their own cake! It was a lot of fun to celebrate the day with them!

SURPRISE BIRTHDAY PARTY! It was the funnest surprise- we went over to my mom and dad's house to open some of Bridger's gifts and eat some cake and everything when to our SURPRISE, we opened the door and they had completely decorated the house with streamers, balloons, the CUTEST cake, presents, hats, plates, EVERYTHING! It was so darling how they had everything decorated and was the funnest surprise ever! They handed us each our party hats and we had such a blast! They definitely made our night- So thank you mom, dad, and Whit for being so thoughtful and making Bridger's birthday so special!


CUTEST LITTLE DECORATIONS AND ELMO CAKE!

Bridger isn't spoiled at all :) Thank you so much for EVERYTHING!

Another cake-from momma (he's been able to make so many wishes)!

Grandma and Grandpa got him the most darling presents! They were UNREAL!





I think Grandma does deserve a kiss!

By the end of the night Bridge was getting so tired, he just kept laying down!

We played a game of BALLOON volleyball with a streamer as the net. And it was Bryce and my mom against Whitney and Me..... and if you can't tell, they won! They called themselves "Osgood United" and were really excited to do their victory dance!

Happy Birthday Bridger! I cannot believe that he is already two years old! I am so grateful for my sweet little boy and for the joy and happiness that he has brought into our life! He is my little angel and can ALWAYS bring a smile to my face! I love him more than words can express!
