Family Renunions

after visiting and enjoying brunch with our family for Lil Miss C's baptism, we headed to our local state park for one of Mr. C's family renunions. We visited with family and enjoyed the beautiful afternoon.

Lil miss with her 3rd cousin, i do believe, he is mr. C's cousin's son.

Lil miss C's baptism

Well we finally did it, only 6 months after you were born we baptised you. We chose J & B to be your godparents. With the exception of it being nap time throughout the entire cemony, you didn't do to bad. A special note is that your Grandma (my mom) made your baptismal gown.

Some snapshots of the ceremony:

After the ceremony we had everyone over for brunch and snaped some pictures on our deck.

Lfrog's Baptism

after CM's shower, I headed home to pick up Mr. C to head to the church for Lfrog's baptism. B&B had asked us along with my sister CJ to be his godparents.

CJ is holding his baptismal candle after the priest had light it from the Easter candle.

After the ceremony we snapped a few pictures of the G Family and Lfrog's godparents.





Lfrog was baptised in the B Family baptismal gown that i do believe has been around for close too if not more than 100 years. All of us in the picture below were baptised in the gown.

We enjoyed diner at B&B's and tried to take a family picture and below is about as successful as we were.

A beautiful end to a beautifully busy day.

Let's all go bananas, won't you come too?

was the theme for my friend CM's baby shower. I helped out by preparing the deserts for the festivities!

I spent last night making monkey cupcakes,

chocolate covered bananas and monkey bread!

The shower was today at noon, so i arrived a little early to help prepare the rest of the food and decorate!

We had quite the spread for 15-20 people, the food was so yummy!! The picture does not do it justice.

After some appetizers before the main meal, C & J opened their presents. They are expecting a lil boy in September and decorating with monkies!

One present she received had this cute mokey and banana on top of it...come to find out that they lady who gave it to them, crocheted it all herself, talk about a precious present.

I wish them both the best of luck and can't wait till the lil man gets here!! I just hope i get to see him before he gets to big since they moved to another state. 

A time for Granny

today me, lil miss, my sister & her 2 boys, my sister JR and my mom went and visited Granny. The was the first time that Granny was getting to meet Lfrog! We had a pleasant visit. We went up to her room on the 3rd floor and stayed in her room for a while and then after DMan started to get antsy we went and sat outside on the patio. After visiting for a while, the kiddos were starting to get cranky as it was nap time so we said our good-byes, but not before snapping some pictures with Great Granny.

It sure is hard to get a good picture with 3 kiddos and a granny!

Matching Mulch

is what lil miss C & I got Mr. C for Father's Day. I had to work this weekend, but I had Thursday and Friday off since lil miss C's sitter was on vacation. So on Friday afternoon after Mr. C got off work, he picked up the dump trailer and we met him at ARS.

We got 2 yards of mulch.

While lil miss was taking her afternoon nap, Mr. C and I got busy in the yard. We mulched the front flower garden.

Then we went around the community well & electric meter.

We then got most of all the trees in the backyard, we really could have used another yard, but we will save that for another time. It already looks so much better!!! After we got done, me and lil miss got ready and headed to H & J's house for a mommy's spa night. Saturday after I got off work we bbq'd at our house with J, H, KBug & BBop. Then Sunday, Sissy watched lil miss C for us so Mr. C could go golfing with his dad and the boys, then after I got off work, we relaxed at home.

Happy Fathers Day Mr. C!!!



Tractoring

Since Mr. C got his tractor, it seems like tractor rides are almost an everyday occurance. He loves to go for rides & do lots of work with his tractor, it breaks his heart anytime he is without it because something has broke on it. This weekend was no exception, on Friday evening he hooked up to our hay wagaon and took us and the neighbors for a ride around the fields. Saturday morning while Mr. C was at work, lil miss C and i went grocery shopping, came home, made baby food and fruit salad and then we headed to Sissy & D's for my mil K's birthday bbq. We had a good evening, visiting with family and good family friends. Then Sunday afternoon, Mr. C decided that he wanted to spray the field corn he has planted for the deer with some weed killer. Well since we don't have a sprayer, he borrowed this thing from his day that he then put on the wood trailer and off we went spraying the corn.

My sis CJ, stopped by & joined us on the ride.

Mr. C spraying the last of the weed killer.

And then.....we were making our last pass through the rows and all of a sudden we hear a loud noise and Mr. C comes flying toward the front of the trailer. Luckily me, CJ, & lil miss were in chairs and Mr. C took the brunt of the force. Somehow the tounge on the trailer broke.

Here is the trailer after it broke away from the tractor. Our friend JS was helping and they pulled the wagon back to our barn with a chain and the tractor.

Never a dull moment around!!!

It had been too long

since I had seen my newest nephew...in fact the only time i have seen him was the day after he was born, so me and lil miss C spent the evening visiting with the G Family, Mr. C was planting pumpkins at home. My mom had DMan all day and showed up a little while after we got there.
