A Special Blessing

Yes, Will is a special blessing to our family, and today was a special day for Will.  We went down to Farmington to go to church with Gran and Popi, and both Will and Audrey received blessings.  Unfortunately I didn't get a picture of the cousins together in their beautiful white outfits, but they were precious.  Both babies did great during the service and didn't make a peep.

Lots of family came over to my parents house afterwards to enjoy lunch.  It turned out to be a beautiful day so we spent much of the afternoon outside.  The dads were playing a little wiffle ball, and Ellie wanted in on the action.  She developed quite a little pitching arm.

Max mostly wanted to play with the new golf clubs Popi picked up for him.  Max was hitting some great shots and impressing everyone, so Jason finally decided to try to get a little video of Max's golf game.  Unfortunately Max was just about ready for a break by the time the camera started rolling, but he had a few nice shots left in him.  I just wish there was better sound with the video, so you could hear Max's frustrated, "Oh, dang it!" or his complimentary, "Nice shot!"

And this is what Will did most of the afternoon.  He loves to be outside...it seems like most babies love to be outside.  I think there is something in the outdoors that is especially calming to babies.
