Happy 60th and a baptism too!

Well, we survived the weekend!

We hosted my Mom's 60th birthday party on Saturday (Happy Birthday Mom!) and it was lots of fun. The weather cooperated and we had a beautiful sunny day that wasn't too hot. The kids had a blast playing in the bouncy castle, slip and slide and we even managed to hit the pool and go for a nice swim. The grown-ups had a great time socializing, eating, drinking, eating some more and heading to the beach for a belated sunset. All in all, it was a fantastic day!

On Sunday we had Shannon's baptism, and it went really well. As always Ms. Shannon was a superstar, and didn't even bat an eye when she was doused with the holy water. God-parents Steven and Laura stood by, and all the cousins were as good as gold during the ceremony.

By Sunday afternoon the festivities had wound down, and Chris and I pretty much collapsed. A very busy weekend indeed!!
