Jaxson's first vacation!!!

The day after Jaxson turned 5 weeks old Mommy, Daddy and Grandma Sandi headed out for his first vacation! It was a LONG one. We started our trip in Ft. Scott, Kansas about 3 hours from Winfield. We were able to get a 4 generation picture with Ryan's family to go along with his 5 generation picture from my side of the family. (Jaxson actually has 15 grandparents, including 5 generations on Mommy's maternal side and 5 generations on Daddy's maternal side, but we haven't been able to capture that yet)

Ryan's church in Ft. Scott threw Jaxson a baby shower while we were there. This blanket is one of the gifts that we received from Ryan's cousin! We absolutely love it and use it all the time!

From Ft. Scott we headed out for Columbus, stopping in St. Louis to visit Great Uncle Dan on the way. In Columbus we were able to visit with a lot of Grandpa Dave's family! Jaxson experienced lots of firsts on this trip including his first smile, his first snow and his first deer!

First meeting with Great Grandma Mary Myser

Mom and Dad got to go to the Ohio State vs. Michigan game. During the game Jaxson stayed with Grandma Sandi and other family members at Great Grandma Mary's apartment near campus. Apparently, he was especially fond of his Great Uncle Chuck...

Jaxson was also sporting his brand new "Coach Tressel Vest" onesie for the game!
It was a great vacation and it was wonderful for Jaxson to get to meet many of the Ohio Myser's while he was so young. We have such a hard time making it back to Ohio on a regular basis so I was so thankful that Jaxson was able to go before he was 3 years old! What a meaningful trip!
