Summer Finale

Uncle (Baby) Zan Get's Married!A day I officially feel old . . . and so happy. Classic words to Janna, his soon to be wife, "you won't cry" but the minute I headed down the aisle and saw beautiful tears in Zan's eyes, I lost it (sorry, Janna!), and for the rest of the ceremony. They are wonderful together. I am so happy, no EXCITED, for them and the memories ahead. Here are pictures from the San Juan Island trip:

The Ferry Ride

Annamarie's smile is infectious. If I got a quarter for every time I heard "she is the perfect baby" we would have bought a vacation home at the islands . . . it's truly amazing- she never cries and is just happy. My cousin Megan made me laugh as she was talking about it and said "Anna was looking at this lady asleep on the ferry and started smiling at her and I thought 'don't waste your smiles on her'" . . . but honestly, she has that many to give. She brightens many random people's days because of it. I had to put two pictures up cause I just couldn't delete one. Infectious.

My aunt tried to bribe with candy all the cousins to be good and take pictures. You can see below how that worked! It was a good effort though and VERY entertaining to see little kids beg.

First Gloves
On Labor Day I asked Travis what he wanted to do. He said "something special." Not long after we were headed to buy the boys their first baseball gloves and head to the ballpark. It was a very cool morning and so fun to sit with Annamarie in the grass and watch the proud father. We took them to one of our neighbors games thi Now they love to talk about is being baseball players. (Carter is in blue/Tyler green)
