We had a super busy week! We had Camp Awesome at our church on Tues-Thurs, and then on Thursday and left from there to head south to my cousin Emily's wedding. So crazy! But we made it!
Ruby leading the pack at camp.
Miles loved coming back from the nursery for singing time every day.
Ruby stayed for the afternoons and made this beautiful fairy garden.
She's getting to be such a big help! We got a new lighter stroller for our upcoming trip to Disneyland this December. I think we're pretty much done with our big Uppababy Vista, although it makes me sad. It has been such a good stroller for the last 7 1/2 years.
Stand Firm, Take Action activity... seeing what it feels like to carry Jerry cans of water like so many kids around the world have to do every day.
Drawing monsters. The kids both drew really cute ones. I loved being their group leader this year!
Home and all tired out.
Prayer practices. This is Reid's and it was super cute.
Ruby and her friend Kate.
It was a long drive down, but we did it! Miles had fun watering the plants.
On Friday we went to the Yreka museum, which I hadn't been to in such a long time. It was super interesting. And while we were there, Andy got a call from Willamette Christian Church that they wanted to hire him for the software/web developer job he applied for! It was such a surprise that he stumbled on it and then he went for it. He'll work out of Beaverton Christian Church, which is about 15 minutes away! A much better commute. We'll really miss Imago, but it will be so nice to be closer and back in ministry. It ended up being really perfect timing, so obviously orchestrated by God.
The kids all took turns giving sermons in the old church at the outdoor museum.
Prayer time, so sweet.
One shoe off and one shoe on.
During Miles's nap time we went with the big kids and my siblings to Mt. Shasta for a while.
We wandered around the shops (mostly crystal shops) and got coffee. It was lovely.
Miles got super cold and was just sitting in the pool shivering. Almost every afternoon got cloudy/rainy.
So much fun on the trampoline.
Miles LOVES Grand'a's "tawacto."
Morning Grandma snuggles. Saturday morning was super busy, I frosted one of the wedding cakes!
Ruby got this beautiful rose for her hair.
We made it to the wedding! I forgot my phone at my mom and dad's house, so Andy got some photos. Miles and I went to the house to see everyone before hand for a few minutes, and I came back to the field where Reid had fallen in the creek, of course. Thankfully Dana had some extra shorts for him to borrow.
It was a beautiful wedding with Mt. Shasta in the background.
Our little family. <3
Here's the cake mom made and I frosted! It was delicious. We left the reception early and the boys were super tired so we put them right to bed.
Ruby wasn't tired yet so we played Clue. She won!
A bunch of my family members all camped in my parents' yard on Saturday and Sunday night for our annual Sprunger reunion. It was so fun! (We slept in the house though, thanks mom!!)
We all headed to Lake Siskiyou on Sunday, and it ended up being such a perfect day! Ruby had fun in the kid kayak.
Reid had a great time digging and digging.
Reid rowed Miles around for a while, then he and Andy went rowing all over. Reid just loved the kayak!
We all got home exhausted, except for these ones all playing a ball game.
Cutie pie.
With Grandpa on the tractor. He was so happy.
Dad gave us all rides around town in the trailer.
Amelia really had fun with Ruby. I love that our kids have cousins and second cousins that they know well!
The last morning everyone slept in (finally!).
Ruby read to the girls (Beatrix and Amelia).
Cindy's family had left already, but these are most of the second cousins that were there minus the three babies. It was so fun!!
It was such a fun weekend!!! I'm so glad we spent more time together than just the wedding day.
ReplyDeleteTell Ruby her fairy garden is beautiful!
Love you all so much, thanks for sharing these pictures, made happy memories!!
