Back from Menard

BJ's job is always busy, but it is about to get crazy busy in September as our church initiates a new worship minister and begins a vision finding process.  About a week ago, it occurred to us that if BJ didn't take some time off is August, it just wasn't going to happen this work year, so we headed down to Menard.  It was a wonderful week of relaxing, watching Iron Chef on DVR, passing Lydia around, and playing with Shepherd in Mom and Dad's huge yard.  Here are a few pictures from the week.

Of course, every child has to get a bath in their grandparents' sink.  Lydia suffered through bathtime with minimal screaming and crying, and she finished the bath by looking beautiful in a pink towel.


However, Lydia spent the vast majority of last week on Pap's chest.  She is having a rude awakening today.  When it is just me and Shepherd in the house, she can't be held every moment of the day.


Shepherd spent the week outside with Mamm.  They mowed...


...and went on wagon rides.


He really likes a good wagon ride.

 
All and all, it was a wonderful week.  Thanks Mamm and Pap for a great time!
