Father's Day Flowers

Happy Father's Day Mr. C! We started our morning dropping Mr.C  off at his dad's to go golfing for the day. Then we headed out on our mission to find his present. We had looked on Saturday but had found nothing that we liked and thought would go well in the bed. Alas we finally found something we liked and we got 6 plants for the front flower bed. After some lunch and a Lil Miss C's nap we headed to DMan's birthday party and then met Mr. C back at his dad's and spent the evening visiting and enjoying dinner with the parents and friends.

Adventures at the park and pool

Lil Miss C has been getting to know the local park, we went and played and walked before heading to the new pool. She is still not quite sure about the slides, but loves to swing.

We met my parents, DMan & Lfrog and JR for a swim at the new aquatic center. The pool just opened this summer and this was our first time to visit. The kiddos had a blast.

Enjoying the splash pad!

Having fun with aunt JR!

A weekend at home

It seems like it has been a while since we have spent the weekend at home. I love it when we don't have plans and can do whatever comes up, which is exactly what we did this weekend. We went swimming at the parents pool and helped the neighbor load & unload  hay.

18 months

We went today for 18 month checkup. You weighed in at 22.5 pounds, 31.5 inches tall and your head circumference is 18.5. The doc is happy with your growth, and we don't come back until your 2.

Love you bunches,
Mommy

Mr. & Mrs. B, a rustic elegant affair

This weekend we headed west for Mr. C's sister S's wedding. Mr. C has been working out of town this week so Lil Miss C and I headed up on Friday with Grandma W. We arrived and helped decorate the reception site. After decorating all day, we met up with the wedding party and family for dinner and after dinner went and got settled in at the camper at GPa J's house. He borrowed a camper for the weekend, so that J, H, KBug, BeBop and us could stay with him.

Saurday morning we enjoyed breakfast and visiting and before long the guys were heading to the church, Mr. C & J were ushers. H did KBug's hair as she was the flower girl and sent her with the boys and then her, BeBop, lil miss & I headed with Uncle S to grab some lunch before getting to the church.

Walking his daughter down the aisle and giving her away.

I just love looking at the groom as he watches his bride walk down the aisle.

Saying their vows, I loved how their were able to face "us" to say them.

Unfortunately i didn't get to snap as many pictures as i would have liked to, but that happens when you have a sleeping 18 month old in your arms during and after the ceremony. After pictures at the church we went back to GPa J's house for a little while until it was time to head to the reception.

The reception was held in a barn on a local farm. We spent Friday decorating it and it looked amazing, again i forgot to snap some pictures. But it was an elegant rustic setting. Mason jars with flowers and candles were the centerpieces, pink & orange flowers, toule, lights, etc. It was beautiful.

Lil Miss C had a blast at her first wedding, she loved dancing the night away until she went to bed.

Their first dance as husband and wife.

Congrats Mr. & Mrs. B!! We are so happy for them and had a wonderful weekend celebrating with them.

Lake Bound for Memorial Day weekend

So after spending the afternoon getting us all ready to go, we were lake bound by 4:30PM on Thursday!! Mr. C was going to be working not that far from the cabin on Friday so that is why we got to head up there early and enjoy an extra day at the lake!!

Once we arrived and unpacked a few things...Lil Miss was checking out the golf cart.

On Friday Lil Miss C and i got our boat all cleaned up and ready for the weekend, relaxed and played while waiting for the others to begin arriving for the weekend. She was so close to walking around in daddy's shoes.

Friday evening we set up our tent and enjoyed everyone's company as they arrived for the weekend. Saturday and Sunday we enjoyed lots of swimming, boating and good company. Lil Miss C loved being in the lake water.

and got used to being on the boat. She didn't like it when we first put the boat on and when we would take the boat off the water. But i think that was because she was hot when we put on the water and just tired when we took off the water. None the less she did amazing palying and being on the boat for the weekend!

We left fairly early on Monday morning so we could get home, do laundry, mow grass, and repack Mr. C as he was going back to the cabin to stay and work the rest of the week. After we got some chores done and Lil Miss C had her nap, we wentover to Mr' C's parents pool and enjoyed swimming and bbqing for the evening.

Happy Memorial Day!

Playing at the Park

Lil Miss C's sitter has been on vacation this week, so Grandma Watched her on Monday and Wednesday and I took off the rest of the week. We have had a wonderful week. Lots of time spent at the park. I got to get a 2 mile walk in each day that we went and Lil Miss C got to play as well.

Bouncing on the sea lion.

She loves to swing...it's just hard to get a good picture of her while pushing her.

Thursday we were playing & getting ready to go swimming when Mr. C called us and asked if we wanted to head to the lake that evening. Which we said of course we do!! So instead of swimming we headed to the grocery store and home to get everything packed and ready to leave when he got home.
