We’d do a much better job updating this blog if our computer would quit crashing. Although, this time I believe it’s really dead. The hard drive is shot and the fan is even messed up. It lived a full life. Three years old is, I think, ancient for computers nowadays. It was a grad school graduation present from my Dad and Stepmom and built by his cousin. It will be missed, especially because there’s no way we can afford a replacement right now since we’d like to get a Mac.
Anyway, we had a STUPENDIOUS vacation with Ben’s family. First time Grammy and Grandpa had both their sons home together in two years! Josie just fell in love with her almost two-year-old cousin Henry (as did mom and dad). And I know the feeling is mutual. I jetskied for the first time hanging on with Ben’s daredevil turns and wave jumping. Then with me in the driver’s seat and Ben’s daredevil encouragement from the backseat to push that throttle. I’m glad I listened.
We took a family portrait (first in maybe two decades) that was part of a surprise present for Ben’s parents’ 40th wedding anniversary. We used the same photographer who did our wedding because she absolutely rocks!
This was also Josie’s baptism weekend with Godfather Uncle Sam. (Godmother Kelly sent her love and support from Indiana). Josie looked angelic in her white lace gown and seemed unphased by the new experience. As usual, she was most interested in jumping on mom’s lap, eating her fist and talking to the bright lights on the altar.
Whew…a memorable vacation! Our camera (so far) works great so while we may not post as often as we would like, keep checking out Josie’s photo gallery for updated pics.
