On the road again...

...final destination - New York.  

We cut across Canada and made a little stop at Niagara Falls.

Calleigh took her first swim in a big pool (with Daddy's assistance of course).

The reason for the trip was this happy couple.  We celebrated the marriage of Michele and Greg.  They recently got married in Jamaica (wish we'd been there for that!) and had a reception back in Michele's hometown in New York.  Congrats Michele and Greg!

Memorial Day Weekend

We made the rounds Memorial Day weekend.  Our first stop was the Rupps.  JD just loved Calleigh and was very excited to play with her and watch her.  He told me that we should "move closer because the drive to see eachother is too long.  That way we could just walk to eachother's house."  Oh, how his mama and I would just love that!

Ella playing with Calleigh.

Next stop - Sturgis.  We visited with Grandma and Grandpa Fieberkorn.  On Sunday, we had a Fieberkorn Family BBQ at my cousin, Samantha's.  She had a little kiddie pool set up for the kiddos.  It was incredibly hot that day so Calleigh took a little dip in the pool with second cousins, Jacob (in this pic) and Kayla.  She loved it.  I think she's going to be a little fish!

A quick visit with Great Grandma Weiderman. 

On to Stevensville for a visit with Oma and Opa. 

We all took a carousel ride in St. Joe.  This was our second carousel ride of the weekend.  We also took a ride with Jen, JD, and Ella in Shipshewana.  During that ride Calleigh fell asleep.  She stayed awake for this one and I think she had a pretty good time.

We got our feet a little wet at the fountain in St. Joe.

Our First Picnic

We took Calleigh for her first picnic a couple of weeks ago when it got really hot.  We went to a park down by the river in Marine City.  It was such a pretty evening and it was about 10 degrees cooler by the river.

Calleigh and Daddy watched the boats and freighters go by. 

A Very Happy Mother's Day

Mother's Day sure does feel different when you become a mother.  What a special day it was!  I'm so thankful to have such a sweet, beautiful little girl. 

Happy 95th Birthday, Grandma!

On May 2nd, my Grandma Weiderman turned 95 years old.  Grandma has been through a lot in the last 10 years, including the death of my grandpa, breast cancer, a hip replacement and many bouts with pneumonia, but she's also had many things to celebrate in that time including the births of many great-grandchildren (9 last year alone!) and she's looking better than ever!

I see London, I see France...

I see Calleigh's underpants!

Uh oh!!
