Getting to see EVERYONE in one weekend!!!!! Amazing!!!!

Whew!!!!!!! What a weekend!!!!!! It was one of those weekends where everyone was having so much fun that the time just flew by!!!!!! We started in Lafayette Saturday evening for Cowboys Against Cancer--an event organized by our very own Uncle Joey!!!!!!! Gwen loved the rodeo; even with the rain! It was hard to tell what her favorite part was...
"Yee Haw!!!!"
Riding Charlie 5 times!
(Every pony was named Charlie according to Gwen and Ashley Beth--you are one dedicated Aunt to walk in the rain with her! Thanks!)
Getting to be a cowgirl!
Being Poppy's #1 buddy!
Seeing Uncle Joey ride a bull!!!!!! And in person!!!!!
Hanging out with all the Tempel gang!!!!!!!


Shooting match before hitting the road! Love the giggles!
Charlie and Gwen--a match made in heaven!!!!!
Joey and the bull!

After a fun filled Saturday night, we had an early start Sunday to make it to another big event...Lilly's baptism! Gwen had a wonderful nap during the whole ceremony (which was so nice!) and Lilly was a perfect angel! Brad and I are so honored to be Lilly's Godparents and Gwen is so excited to be the Godcousin! The whole day was wonderful and we just loved getting to spend time with all our family!
Lilly's big day!
"No party is complete without cake!"
"I'll help you, Lilly. I know exactly what to do with these."

Gwen was wonderful the whole trip; we just wish it could have been longer with everyone! Once home we set out on a walk to stretch and Gwen put herself to bed :-) Now we are back to our usual business, but I had to add one more picture...Gwen has named it:
"Daddy's toy"
Brad's new to him motorcycle
