We went to Jamaica last week to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. It was wonderful and I'm looking forward to a few more vacations without the kids (and a few more with the kids) in the coming years.
I really dislike this picture. Probably because I wasn't too excited to take it. The snorkeling was fun.
We came back to South Bend to find my parents and Melissa's mom waiting for us. Since they were all here we decided to celebrate Spencer's 8th birthday. We went to IHOP of course then the kids got to ride go-carts. Jessi and Kristian didn't even make it one time around the track before they broke down crying, but Spencer had a ball in the track all to himself.
On Saturday Spencer was baptized. After his baptism while he and I were in the changing room he told me that his birthday party was fun, but this was probably the best day of his life. It was a very emotional day for me and I'm so proud of Spencer for his choices and example. Spencer got a new suit for the occasion and was very excited to wear it.
