Good things still happen!

Sydney
Last Saturday Sydney was baptized and all our family came to support her. And it was 4th of July weekend. We tired to get to Sand Harbor Friday morning before the parking lot filled up, but we were too late. My family was bummed. We turned around and went to Bower's Mansion and went swimming. That was a good time but chilly. The water was cool and the wind was blowing. Kelsey enjoyed that better than the beach since she does not like the sand. She spends her time on top of the cooler when we go to the Lake. It is nice for me so I don't have to chase her around, but I am sure that will not last long. Anyway - - after swimming we came home and BBQ hamburgers with both mine and Jason's family. We were so excited that so many people came, my mom and dad, Julie and Sam, Becky, Nathan, and Marlayna, Jason's mom and dad, and Leanna, Duane, D'Artagnan, and Alexis. We had a great time. Then after food, we went to watch the fireworks at Rancho San Rafael. They were big and fun, but on the way home we saw the tail end of the Sparks fireworks and we have decided those are better and we will get closer to those next year. It was a good time.

Then on Saturday we got up and went to Virginia City and road the V&T Railroad. That was also fun. All the same people again having a good time. We had a picnic lunch and then walked through the town for a little while and got an ice cream. It was hot so the ice cream was nice. Kelsey and I got toasted- bad mom, poor baby. And we made it back in time to frost cup cakes and get us to the church to baptize Sydney. What a great time!!

Congratulations Sydney!

How wonderful to have your entire family there to help celebrate! Sounds like you had a really good visit. We missed you up at Sand Harbor though, maybe next year.
