A Series of Exciting Events

Most of the events to follow happened because I had family come visit for Baby's blessing day. My mom and step-dad came to stay for an entire week before, and then everyone else came the day before. My sister and family and dad and family stayed a few days after the blessing. Get ready for some serious pictures!

Blessing Day


My aunt made this blessing outfit for Scamper, so we were lucky enough to use it again for Baby. I really love it--my aunt is really talented.





The Hubby's family.
My mom, step-dad, and sisters.

My dad, step-mom, and sisters.


Fathers and Sons Camping Trip


In the tent.


A little "hiking."




Visit From My Best Friend C





We went to a Medieval Fair where we saw some jousting. It was pretty fun and Scamper thought it was just about the coolest thing ever to see the "hit the sticks."
With my friend, C.



Scamper got to feed the farm animals at the petting zoo there.





And the Hubby got the giant turkey leg he always thought looked fun to eat.



This is what Baby did most of the time (when he wasn't sleeping).


Memorial Day Camping Trip & Kayaking


Scamper helping to unload and set up the campsite.


Baby's sleeping arrangements. This was his first camping trip (he is 2 months) and it was really quite successful!

Scamper thought catching marshmallows on fire was the funniest thing ever. After the Hubby did by accident once, he kept wanting him to do it again.

Playing at the lake with friends.


This is what Baby does most of the time.


Kayaking with Grandma.

I can hardly believe you went camping! You are AMAZING. I have yet to take my kids camping, not because I don't want to, but because I am a major wimp. You inspire!

The girls and I loved the video!!! My favorite was the laughing and the "again" part. How special to have so many family members come for the blessing.
