Trip to Sacramento

This past Labor Day weekend we were in Sacramento for Austin's baby blessing. It's always fun to get together with family that you don't get to see often enough. We ate tons of food (thanks Melanie and Jessica), watched BYU beat Oklahoma (we're big cougar fans if you didn't know), celebrated little Austin being blessed, and found some really great sales at the outlets!

Pictured: The Higginbothams:Joel, Melanie (I hope I look as good as her after the baby), Ethan, Megan and Austin. We stayed at Cory and Jessica's house the whole weekend. They were nice enough to put up with us! Brady and Isaiah had a lot of fun playing together. Jessica is quite the baker...and I wouldn't be surprised if my weigh-in on Thurs. doesn't go well. Thanks Jess!
On Monday, on our way to the Folsom Outlets, we stopped by the Sacramento temple for a picture. It is such a beautiful temple. I think the last time we went to it was for the open house.

After we went to the outlets we met up with all of the family for a picnic at the State Capitol. The weather was nice, and the kids had fun running around.

Pictured: The other Higginbothams: Cory, Jessica and Brady. Jessica is due just three weeks after me and is having a girl!

In Old Town Sac they were having Gold Rush Days, where the streets are covered in dirt and people are dressed as back in those days. Isaiah has been into trains a lot lately, so we were looking forward to taking him on the train ride they have. He was amazed the whole time.

It was a fun trip, but I definitely realized that my little guy is coming soon...and that my body just can't handle too much anymore! No more long car rides...and the waddling is beginning!
