Picture From Fiddle Festival 

We spent some time with some dear friends this weekend and enjoyed a relaxing evening of grilling, chatting and general catching up with one another.

Tim did a great job as grill-master!

A.J. concentrated hard as he removed pieces from the Jenga tower. 

Nathaniel was the kiddo's hero, and they followed him around pretty much the whole evening.

Nathan did shockingly well with this game and made it right up to the end!

The girls took the opportunity to get a few pictures, as the weather was so nice outside.

Timothy got an updated picture as well.

The boys took out the plastic practice swords and got pretty intense with their "battle"

We were glad that Rick was able to come along with us for the day!

Luke was pretty sweaty after his sword practice!

Karisse and Lizzy.

One more picture of Nathan that I didn't post with his birthday pics.

My little sister Emily told me she needed a new profile picture and I was happy to oblige!

Our little Nathan turned four a few days ago and let me tell you, time flies!

It seems like yesterday that we were cheering him on as he took his first steps, and learned new words every day.

Now he is our little man that keeps us laughing with his many unique conversations and ideas.

We love you Nathan!

We had a great time playing laser tag with a group of our friends over the Fourth of July weekend.  Even though it was super hot outside, everyone gave it their best shot (no pun intended) and fought with great determination and courage. :o)

Reid, snipes from the hayloft.

Luke, ever watchful as he moves past an opening.

Matthew makes use of the trees as cover.

Is it me, or do they look way to cheerful to be holding sub-machine guns?

Like I said, much too happy. :o)

You guys made great teamwork happen!
