Celebrations

Oh, how I love a reason to celebrate.

Because really, isn't that what life is about?! Celebrating traditions, joys and accomplishments. Celebrating holidays, birthdays, special days. Celebrating those we love and those we miss. Whatever the reason or occasion, I love a good celebration.

And this weekend we celebrated it up...big time! We spent the day Saturday at Samish Island celebrating the completion of Auntie and Peter's ah-mazing house and spending time with family. The sunshine was like the homecoming of a long awaited friend...oh how good it felt!

And not to be forgotten, celebrating the first corn on the cob of the season!

Sunday was spent celebrating not only the 4th of July, but also Miss Charlotte's baptism. What a special day we had, surrounded by so many friends and family that love our girl. There is something that touches my heart so deeply to see the people that you love, loving on our little one.

Monday we celebrated the extra day off and the not-so-wonderful-but-atleast-it's-not-raining-weather with a family walk around the lake and relaxing.
