celebration

we celebrated matson's baptism a little early (on saturday) to fit everyone's schedule. sunday afternoon just isn't the best for small children or out of town guests. saturday after nap time worked best. it was our first party at our new home and it was so fun! my parents came in town early to help us do some work around the house and get ready. they were a HUGE help. who am i kidding, any extra set(s) of hands we can get is a huge help! my mom and i potted plants and prepared food while matt and my dad took care of putting some furniture together and grilling hambugers and links. we started the morning off right with mimosas!

names on the cups, the tradition lives on! i love the two piece that reese has on. this is the second outfit i have seen on here that ella also has. great minds think alike...or just shop at the same place

sorry to get all technical here, but did you do anything special for the lighting of the picture of your mom and the other lady and the picture of you and your friend outside? they look fantastic!
