Summer vacation!

We have had a BUSY summer so far! Between doctor appointments, vacation bible school, and many, many outings, our summer has gotten off to a hectic start! And now, we are leaving on vacation for the next two weeks. We are heading out west with another family for two weeks of camping, hiking and sightseeing. Our itinerary will include Grand Canyon Nat'l Park, Zion, Bryce Canyon, Grand Teton, Yellowstone, Devils Tower, Mt. Rushmore AND the Badlands. We have created a blog specifically for the trip if you want to follow our daily adventures:

I am sure we will have lots to tell when we get back!

Wedding Weekend

Chris and Kayla were married in Charleston, SC on Saturday, May 9, 2009. We were able to spend the entire weekend in a beautiful beach house and enjoy some time on the beach while all the wedding festivities were taking place. Cate made a gorgeous flower girl while Sam was a very handsome ring bearer. Although we never made it in to town for the shopping and sightseeing, it was definitely a place we would like to visit again very soon!

Cate's 7th Birthday!

Once again, Cate celebrated her birthday with a variety of parties! She chose to have a tea party at Sisters Tea Parlor with five of her closest friends. They played tea party bingo, learned about tea room etiquette, dressed up in hats, enjoyed Lady Hannah tea (Cate's absolute favorite), ate tea room finger foods and concluded the event with a fabulous teapot shaped birthday cake! The girls were such little ladies...so well behaved!

Next, Cate chose to have her birthday dinner at El Acapulco Mexican Restaurant in LaGrange and then had the family over for cake and coffee afterward. She had such a fun day! I'm sure it will be a birthday she will always remember.
