Second... I saw this.... (obviously not this exact picture BUT) this girl was just running her horse through a field and she looked like she was having so much fun. You could just tell. And for a moment, I wished that sometimes I could just get on a horse and RIDE.
And thirdly and definitely the MOST important...
COLSTON MAKES ME HAPPIEST!
A year ago today we were surrounded by our friends and family. A year ago today I made promises to Brandon that I intend to keep forever. A year ago today I thought was the greatest day of my life. A year ago today it WAS the greatest day... but now that a year has gone by with my best friend, I have learned that everyday with him is greater and greater. Come with me as I touch on some of the biggest parts of our first year together as Brandon and Jennifer McCreedy.
1. We went on our honeymoon to Newport, Or
2. We lived in our first apartment with a TINY kitchen
3. We found out we were expecting our first baby... McBaby
4. We celebrated our holidays together as a married couple. (Above: picking our first Christmas Tree) 
5. On Valentine's Day we moved into our very first home after some DEEP cleaning and a fresh paint job. 
6. Colston was born April 7th 2010. We LOVE him so much and he adds so much to our family. 
And I ordered the Halibut breaded with parmasean cheese:
Both were AMAZINGLY delicious. So as we are waiting for our food to come, Brandon says, "Jen there is Haley." I respond without even looking, "Yeah right, whatever." (He likes to joke with me and since he knows she is my favorite and how much I love the show I figured he was again joking) Someone walks passed me and then turns her head to the side. SURE ENOUGH THERE BEFORE ME WAS HALEY JAMES SCOTT. I just about DIED. My face turned BRIGHT red and my eyes got a little teary! I know it's lame but I couldn't even HELP my reaction. Brandon told me I was embarrassing him but I didn't care. We soon realized that we were in the corner of what seemed to be a large family gathering of her family and some friends. It was kind of awkward and I didn't want to even look at her. I SO badly wanted a picture to document this moment in history, but I am not one to pry. After we ate, I couldn't help it any longer. I casually told our waitress about my love for One Tree Hill (not telling her it is more of an obsession) and if Bethany would mind me asking for a picture. She laughed and told me how cute that was and that she would ask her. I then asked if she could just maybe wait til some of her family left so I didn't look like a HUGE idiot! A few minutes later I glance and see the waitress talking to her... about me. Ha. Talk about feeling lame. The waitress made her way to us and let us know that she would be happy to as soon as she finished eating. Brandon and I took that as a resounding no. Oh well I tried. We got dessert and as I was about to take a bite, THERE SHE WAS. "Hi!" she said. "OH MY GOSH. OH MY GOSH. OH MY GOSH. SAY SOMETHING YOU DUMBY!" was what went through my head. We went on to have like a seven minute conversation about our food, the little town of Battle Ground, and OTH. I told her I loved her show. She told me my baby was cute. We met her husband who is from here. And took a picture. She was SUPER SUPER nice and it made me love her even more. It's awesome to see such talented people acting so NORMAL. And she goes by Joy by the way.... ha... it was so amazingly awesome and it made our anniverary dinner that much better! I will NEVER ever forget that night!
Ps... she's whiter than me. Ü
This is our swimmer boy. Despite the fact that yes he is growing bigger, his swim shorts do not yet fit. Ha! Since it's been super warm the last couple of days, I decided to get our little man a pool. He LOVED it!
Colston and Brandon getting ready!
And he's in! Loving it!
He was just standing staring at the water

The sun finally decided to come out and play. My mom was watching Adrienne's kid while she was at Girls Camp. Angela had taken the older kids to the river and that left the youngest Staley girls at mom's. When we stopped by to pick Colston up after work, this is what we found. 
Getting brave and sitting in the COLD hose water!
Colston wanting no part in it.
So he decided to sleep in the shade.
The girls laying on their towels. I love the sunshine and how happy it makes most people. I love the heat, the darkened freckles and the fun that always comes along!
I can NOT even believe this guy is three months old. I can remember when I was three months pregnant. Oh how time is flying. It's really bittersweet because I LOVE watching all the new things he does but miss how little he used to be. He is around eleven pounds and around 23 inches long.
