What did you do for Labor Day? I bet it didn't involve going across the country.

Call us crazy, but we flew all the way to Alabama and then drove to Georgia to surprise Wes' brother Spencer on our Labor Day weekend.

It was Wes' brother's 30th birthday and his cute wife, Leigh thought it would be fun to surprise him at his birthday party with his two brothers, Wes & Grant and their families. Months and months ago we all booked our flights so we could have a fun weekend together and surprise Spencer. As the departure date got a little closer, Wes & I went back and forth as to whether Nate and I were going to make the treck with Wes but we decided last minute to have us all go. I can't miss out on a party. We had a great time with Wes' family and somehow survived 21 hours of travel in a 60 hour time period with a one year old. I have to say that Nate was a TROOPER. Don't get me wrong, we won't be doing that again for a LONG time but it was worth it to be with all of the Griffeth clan.

Leigh sure knows how to throw a party. Since she and Spencer are HUGE college football fans, she threw him a tailgating football party which was appropriate since Saturday was the college football kick-off day. Everyone wore their favorite team colors.

Enough yummy food to feed a football team.

Spencer & the Griffeth clan are huge Georgia football fans so the party was pretty much all things Georgia Bulldogs. Which I'm sure was tough for Leigh since she's a HUGE Tennessee fan.

Baby Spence.

We really enjoy Wes' entire family and wish we could see everyone more often. It was great to see you all. However, this Griffeth family will be staying on the west coast for a while so feel free to come our way anytime. We'd love to have ya.
