Memorial Weekend

My parents were invited to some friends place close to Erie, Pennsylvania and after completing all the cake orders I was able to go down for a bit. 

Was so nice to just relax, chat, and play a few games! No schedule, no deadlines, unless you count going to bed:) 

 My beautiful mother and the baby, who is growing up TOO quickly!

 Playing a competitive game of "Corn-hole"

 Kick-Ball

 Just handing around

 A purty thing:)

 This adorable little one was running around for a few brief moments in his diaper and stole Faith's sunglasses - had to get a few shots:)

 Chilling

 Another adorable shot!

 This is me - just fooling around on a camera - not a photographer by any means, but love pretending I can see things!

 Lake Erie

Some creatures by the lake

 

 Another creature by the lake! No, this guy willingly drove down to Pittsburgh, PA for a wedding! Lot's of touring, stopping here, stopping there, but was so nice to make the trip with  someone and not alone 

 Driving through a state park - so beautiful

 Driving through the hills in PA

 Congratulations Charity and Ethan! Such a beautiful, God honoring wedding ceremony and an amazing testimony of what you've allowed God to do in your lives and what He will continue to do as you allow Him to lead and direct every step!
So excited to have you living a few more hours!

 So this was us!

 And Class of 2011:) Met Charity through Highschool - we hit off right away and have kept in contact over the years! So thankful for her friendship. Also so good to chat with some of her family again as well. God is so faithful and gives us the courage and strength through different people and circumstances... just when we need it!

Pittsburgh, PA

We drove around, up, down, through - however you'd like to call it - the big city!

Thankful to be able to spend some extra time with my little brother. Those times are few and far between, but thankful for each moment! Thanks Barry for allowing him to come with!
