our not so typical labor day weekend


we had the most wonderful surprise over the weekend. my sister-in-law, kirstin, and her husband, david, welcomed their first child saturday night. a son, named anderson david hansen. it was so unexpected considering her due date was not for another 10 days! anderson was ready even though my mother-in-law was not! he was born while she was in the air flying from colorado to utah. <so close!> they have been snuggling on him all weekend long, taking in all the wonderful, sweet things newborns bring and daron and i are wishing we could be with them doing the same. anderson is carter's first cousin on daron's side, and i am anxious for the two of them to meet! so this very typical labor day weekend ended up not being very typical at all. how often is it that you welcome new life into the world?

{some pictures of the typical and not so typical activities}
^my dad, throwing out the idaho and bringing in the california-
hangin' out shirtless AND in the water! we loved it.
^cause i think my mom in her casual beach outfit and cute sun hat is stunning...

*i also laid out on my towel under the hot sun like a teenager with no responsibilities {thanks to daron for taking carter home with him, thank you daron!!} it was uhhh-mazing! why do i love things that make me feel 16? 
*practiced my spanish with aaron's date and surprised myself with how much i knew
*got a glimpse of what life is like taking care of 2 tiny humans 
*and because of berlynn, we spent time on the jetty spotting crabs, sea urchins and star fish which i'm pretty sure i haven't done since i was her age and i don't know why.
