Five Boys & a Girl: A visit from family!

We were so excited to have my sister Toni, her husband Scott, and their adorable baby Cambria come and visit! The boys malled Cambria. They wanted to be around her constantly and she was so great to let them hold her and love her! She has such a great personality and is such a good baby. This was the first time that we got to see her (she is almost 5 months old!) and it was so much fun! One of the days that they were her we hit a splash park that the boys loved! Cambria got in her swimming suit for the first time, so cute.

We went out to Plymouth on Friday. Saturday brought Taede's t-ball game.

He did great and was super excited that Scott and Toni were there to watch.

We went later that day to a Strawberry Festival in a little town called Topsfiled. Taede said "That was the funnest thing ever". It was a lot of fun. It just reconfirms Spencer and I's longing to live in a small town! The local high school had tickets that you could purchase and old fashioned games to play. We chowed down on some strawberry shortcakes and meandered through the display booths. Another thrilling part of

the Strawberry Fest was that the local library was having a book sale. Hard bound books for 50 cents and paperback books for 25 cents. We loaded up on some great books and I only spent 12 dollars!! The boys are so excited that we don't have to take these books back to the library! Of course when we have any special event we have to go to Chuck E. Cheese, and this visit was no exception. On Monday we stopped at a few sites before the Shelton family headed home. We saw the U.S.S. Constitution (the first commissioned battle ship in the United States) and went aboard the U.S.S. Cassin Young.

The Cassin Young was built in the 1950's and used in WWII. It was pretty cool and of course...the boys loved it. It was fun to have our family out to visit. Taede cried, more like sobbed when it came time for them to leave.
