Bennet is given a name and a Blessing

We recently had the opportunity to give Bennet his baby blessing at church.  We are so grateful for the uncles, aunts, and cousins who came to share this special day with us.


Forth of July weekend and the Beach

This year for the Forth of July, we spent the day at Uncle Brent's house with Evan and Bennet's cousins. Uncle Jeff and Aunt Michelle along with Uncle Scott and soon to be Aunt Elizabeth were there too. We all had a great time together laughing, playing and Eating. Bennet had a great time being held by his aunts. Evan went through 3 pairs of clothes between the food and the water fight. He also wore him self out so much jumping on their trampoline that he was too tired to wake up for fireworks. With tears streaming down his face he told us that he just wanted to go home to his bed and blankies. Even though we missed the fireworks, it was a great day with family. 
on Saturday, all the Uncles, Aunts and cousins went to the "beach".  Gunpowder Falls State park has sandy beaches along the water with shallow water for the little kids to swim in. Although Evan loves to swim when I take him to the pool, all he wanted to do on this particular day was play in the sand.
Bennet enjoyed the water splashing on his toes. 
Best buds playing in the sand.
