baptism weekend; part 1

last weekend we were surrounded by lots of family and friends for claires baptism. but instead of just a one day celebration we made a weekend out of it. sorta. it just so happened there was a town parade and some other festivities to participate in so we made the most of it.

the weekend started out with hanging out with claires aunt & uncle & cousins from wisconsin.

miles & emma were very excited to be able to ride some rides. they even convinced their mom & dad to ride with them and even uncle dave (the hubs) joined in too.

the next day we were joined by the hubs' parents and grandparents and cousin. we hung out and watched a parade filled with bands, aztec dancers, bagpipes and a bunch of other clubs, schools and organizations. all of which claire slept thru. after the parade we went to check out the food, the music and the inflatables. this time claire didnt sleep thru it all. 

  

 

 

after that there was swimming in the hotel pool and then everyone headed to our house for a lasagna supper and of course a game or two of sequence :) it was fun to just relax and spend time with family.
