Visit from Grandma Ruth and Hunter & Beckett's baptism

Matt's mom (or "mama Ruf" as the girls like to call her) came for a visit last week/weekend. The girls loved spending time with her! There were multiple walks and trips to the park, a bike ride or two, some cooking lessons and art projects, and lots of story time.

Avery even had some cookies

We got a fire pit for the backyard and used it while Ruth was in town. My parents were also visiting. It was a little chilly, but still fun to sit by the fire.

A little smoky, but you get the idea

Also, last weekend was Hunter and Beckett's baptism. We celebrated at Erin's place with brunch on Sunday morning. It was a gorgeous day, so we played outside in the bouncy house and blew bubbles! The girls were SO exhausted after all that outdoor time!

Avery and Morgan love the bouncy house






Grayson slept through the whole thing

Taking a "snooze" at the park - they thought they were so funny

Sliding with Daddy

Not sure who's having more fun!

Swinging with Papa

Gotta pick our battles - Morgan wanted to sleep in the pack-n-play instead of her crib

Two thumbs up for Strawberry Shortcake (or as Avery calls her Strawberry Cupcake)

Doesn't everyone wear sunglasses inside?

We got a new wagon and Morgan is obsessed with it! She loves riding it and pulling it around everywhere!
