It was a beautiful weekend, so we spent lots of time outside. Brian also took this opportunity to clean the roof off the house, with Nathan, Grand Dad and Pawpaw providing the supervision!
Sarah was still pretty teetery walking around the yard back then, but she loved jumping on the lawn chairs...
...going for piggy back rides...
... and most fun of all, playing kick with the "giant" soccer ball!
After dinner came one of the best parts of the weekend - cake, candles, singing and presents!
After having a little trouble blowing out the candles the regular way, he got a straw to direct the airflow more accurately!
Then it was Sarah's turn!
Nathan graciously offered to help blow her candle out!
Sarah testing out the cake and icing, making sure its fit to eat...
And, yes, she loved it!
Unfortunately, this is my only photo documentation of Aunt Karen's presence that weekend (Aunt Karen - we must remember to pose for photos during your next visit. Our fridge photo of you and Nathan is well over a year old!). She brought a wonderful array of dinosaur presents for Nathan - his special favorite being the dino pillow pet! He carries it all around the house during the day, but it must be in his bed at nap time and night time!
It was a wonderful weekend, surrounded by lots of family that we love. And they all adore our two children, who adore them right back!
It Was a Very Good Time wasn't it? Thanks for sharing pictures and memories. Gran
ReplyDeleteFrom Aunt Karen: When in doubt - leave the picture out! That's a horrible picture of me. Or I should say I look horrible as I know cameras do not lie. Yikes! I would not have been offended if you had left me out. Believe me. The other pictures are wonderful. Can't wait to see all of you in a couple of weeks. Love to all.
