Weekend Recap

We had a great family-filled weekend even though it was cold and snowy.

On Friday we hung out with Rich, Tif, the kids and Ken. We went and grabbed dinner and then went back to just talk and play with the kids. We left when it was time for the kids to go to bed and headed home. We watched some tv and then crashed.

On Saturday we were up and out early. We had some breakfast and then headed to the Container Store. We wanted to design and purchase Ethan's custom closet. We met with one of their closet designers and we gave them all of the dimensions and we talked about some of the ideas we had. After about 20 minutes we had the perfect closet designed for our little man. It's going to be really nice and there will be plenty of storage. Here's a look at the design of his closet.

We had to wait a little while for them to pull all of the parts and then we loaded up the car and headed home. Michael's Dad was already at our house working on some nursery construction. Michael and his Dad we're working in the attic to make it possible to use it for storage. We have a huge attic and it seems silly to not use it. Especially since babies and kids come with a lot of stuff! After they worked for a few hours, they called it a day.

Michael and I relaxed for a bit and then we headed over to Rich and Tif's. Tif was baby-sitting Lauren, Liz's daughter and I thought she could use some extra help since she has Jacob and Makayla too. Michael and Rich watched the football games and we watched the kids. We played with them and then we had some dinner. Rich and Tif made some pulled pork and Michael and I brought a sub sandwich. Everything was yummy,we cleaned up the kids and then played some more. The guys went and got some ice cream, which the kids were very excited about. I think Jacob got more on his shirt than in his mouth!

On Sunday we had a very special day. Lily was being baptized and I had the honor of being her Godmother. She was such a good girl. She didn't make a beep the entire service, even when she was having the water poured on her head. After the baptism, Arla and Teddy hosted a really nice luncheon for the family. Here's some pictures from the day.

Being baptized is tough work!
