Today was a pretty fun day all around.
First up, we were up, eating breakfast and getting ready for the day, bright and early. We were off to church to celebrate Amelia's baptism "birthday". The church she was baptized at does an annual "birthday" party for all of the children baptized the year before. They gave each of the kids a little book, they all got to make a little bag (even the siblings to to make one too, which was nice), they had a special part of the service to honor the baptism babies and some snacks. It was really fun, and it was a nice thing to be a part of. I sure wish that we could get our lives a little less chaotic and a little more in order so that we could start attending church on a regular basis. We really need to make an effort to do that!
After the party, we stopped over to Christian's parents house. Our mom's were chatting one day, his mom mentioned that they were looking to get rid of their kitchen table and chairs, my mom mentioned that she was going to need a new set, so we were commissioned to pick up and drop off the set. So, we did that, then were on our way home for a while.
The girls fell asleep on the way home, took a nice little nap, then woke up just in time to head off to our next event. The girls and I were off to celebrate my Grandma's birthday (while Christian's lazy butt laid around the house). The girls had so much fun running around with all of the other kids...jumping in the leaves, following each other all over the place and just being goofy little kids. It's always nice catching up with the family too.
Finally, the girls were exhausted and ready to head home. We got them in for a quick bath and a little bedtime snack, and everybody was off to bed. Such a busy fun-filled weekend, you just can't ask for much more!
Here are some pics from my Grandma's birthday party.
