Busy, busy weekend


Why do I do this to myself? I seem to cram too much into weekends from time to time. This past weekend was one of these times. Friday was our anniversary, Saturday and Sunday were the Johnny Appleseed Festival, Sunday was Maya's (Todd's cousin's daughter) baptism, and Sunday was also Emma's birthday. Somehow, someway, in our family if your birthday is on a weekend we end up celebrating all weekend.

Emma had a friend spend the night Friday night. Todd and I went out with friends to celebrate our anniversary. Saturday morning Todd and Cameron had to be at the park for the Johnny Appleseed Festival at 6 am. They worked until 6:30 pm. Cameron went back for more work on Sunday. The Boy Scout Troop makes cinnamon caramel corn and presses apple cider. The boys earn money for their scout accounts by working at festivals.

The caramel corn is made over open fire and the cider is pressed by hand.
I took Emma and her friend to the festival and we walked around for a couple of hours. The girls ate and played in the children's area.

Sunday was Emma's 8th birthday and also the baptism of Todd's cousin's daughter. Emma will get her own post.

Todd's cousin Lonnie and his wife Barb wanted Don to baptize their daughter... in the lake. Parents, Godparents, Pastor, and baby Maya all got in the water.
