Paige's baptism and family visit 8/20/11

So with a new baby, it's of course hard to keep away friends and family from seeing the new little one(not that we would want to keep them away!). Our parents, sisters, brothers, and nieces all came to visit the weekend of August 18th-21st. We had Paige's baptism on the 20th of August in our church whose air conditioning was broke down! We survived though and then came back to the house for burgers and hot dogs and a nice evening out on the deck. When everyone left on Sunday, we actually felt pretty lonely! One things for sure, our little one was spoiled by all of our family this weekend. So many wonderful gifts!! Thank you everyone again!
