4th of July weekend

We made the drive down to Hamilton to celebrate the 4th this year. As always, it was fun to see our family, and even more so for Caedmon as he is increasingly aware of what's going on around him. He really had fun with his cousin, Kayla, and took a special interest in what she was doing (and what toy she had!) They were adorable together!


It was too hot to do much outside, but we did squeeze in a quick trip out to feed the catfish in one of the tanks and visit great-uncle Alan and great-aunt Nelda. And, Caedmon learned all about cooking steaks from his Papa! He got to perch in a lawn chair in the backyard and supervise for a little while, and also squeezed in some more play time with Kayla.



Grammy enjoyed time in the house with Caedmon on this trip. They got to play with lots of fun toys on the floor, and loved looking at some new books that she had gotten for him We're thankful that she encourages a love of books...something we hope he carries with him throughout life!
