Family is a wonderful thing. Okay, so motherhood has maybe made me a bit cheesy and sentimental, but in all seriousness we just had a delightful weekend surrounded by family and friends, and celebrating the two littlest ones from the Johnston / White / Swensson clan.
(The whole gang)
Max and Maisie were off to the church on a beautiful morning. The plan was to baptize them together, however it was too special of a sacrament to share so Maisie (being the older and more generous one) let Max get his turn first with Reverend Bill and she got baptized after the service with a smaller, more intimate crowd of just family. I know what you're thinking, "Oh, it must have been because getting a 2-year old to stand still in front of a crowd of people is impossible", but no, it was really because Maisie knew what a special moment it was and that they should each have their own. She is smart beyond her years (both of them ;)).

Long blog short, it was a delightful weekend of big, crowded dinners and early mornings with the little ones running around ready to play while the parents hunted for coffee. We also got to spend some time celebrating GrandPop's bday (and why I am featuring him in this blog with his grandkiddies) and really surprised him with Mom's gift!! She is always keeping him on his toes, that one :)
