This past weekend we had lots of family come into town to celebrate the 4th of July and to be here for Nicole's baby blessing. My parents were here, my oldest brother Dan, his wife, Ashley, and their three boys, Josh, Jake, and Ben, and my sister, Megan, and her boyfriend, Andrew.
We kept really busy and had a blast! On the 4th of July we headed out to Gettysburg to watch a live reenactment. I highly recommend this as the way to see Gettysburg! There was the battle going on and a festival/fair, and then they have an awesome new visitor's center. Alex and I bought the audio tour on cd, so if any of you ever want to borrow it, you're welcome to!
On Saturday we went into the city and toured Independence Hall. We were part of a lucky group that got to go up to the 2nd floor of the building - none of us had ever done that before. We also went to Reading Terminal Market for some good eats, and then up to the Museum of Art to run up the stairs like Rocky!
And last but not least, Nicole had her blessing on Sunday. It was a beautiful blessing, and we feel so lucky to have had so many family and friends there. Nicole was an angel all through sacrament meeting and we are so proud of her!

What a fun weekend you must have had!!! Can't believe how tiny Nicole looks on that pink blanket photo... just love her cute face and all that hair!!! We are so glad to have been to her blessing. She was a silent little angel during the whole thing.
Congrats on Nicole's blessing! She looked absolutely beautiful! You guys are such a cute family!
We had a cd tour of gettysburg also. We loved it! I'm glad you were able to spend some time with your family.
How's your new house treating you? I'm sure you guys are loving it!
Nicole seems to get prettier every day! I love her blessing dress. I'm sure it was so wonderful to have so much family in town for her blessing day!
What a special day. That's great that your family could be there.
Gettysburg looks cool. I love historical places like that. I went to a civil war battleground with no enactment and it was such an awesome experience.
