Nathanael is two now! (or if you ask him, he'll say "I be six") If you keep asking, he'll eventually say "two." We had an adventurous birthday weekend... Gretchen came to visit and we started the weekend with a jazz concert at Currier Park, just down the street from our house. We woke up early the next day and travelled to North Conway, NH to see Thomas! Nathanael had a great time riding on the train and participating in the various other Thomas activities! We had a wonderful picnic lunch and a beautiful drive home through the White Mountains.
On Sunday, the mission team who came for VBS this week cooked NC style barbeque (a noun for all you Vermonters, not a verb!) It was delicious! We brought some home for the week!! :) Monday, Nathanael's actual birthday, we had a few friends over for a Cars themed cake and ice cream. Nathanael even sang happy birthday to himself!! It was really funny! His birthday ended up lasting for a few days as presents came in the mail all the way through Wednesday! This was really exciting for him! We Skyped as we opened CC and Gary and Debbie's gifts and videoed Gram's presents so she can watch how excited he was about everything! It was quite different from last year!! It was definitely a Thomas themed day! Thank you for all who shared with us!
Unfortunately our computer is very low on memory and did not upload all of our pictures from our visit with Gretchen, our Day out with Thomas and our birthday evening properly, so we lost most of them. Here are a few that survived the upload. We are waiting for some from our friend's cameras who were here for Nathanael's cake.
We have a surprise visitor this weekend, Liz Criscione, our friend from OMV/Grace who used to be a Northerner! She will be here until Monday and more friends from OMV/Grace are coming on Saturday! YEAH!! We'll post pictures after her visit and our transfer to a newer and larger hard drive.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY NATHANIEL!! Sounds like great fun.
