So ... I blogged about segway tours and running the monument 10k ... but that same weekend of April 12th 2013 ... we were lucky enough to have both sets of parents here to be apart of Sydney's baby blessing at church. It was a beautiful sunny day, and Tyson gave Sydney a sweet, loving, blessing filled with hopes, blessings, faith, strength and love. We are so grateful for our moms and dads for coming and being with us. And we know for a fact Brody loved every minute of attention as well. 

We ate yummy food and went downtown to Cary St. Burgers, so good, always a favorite of ours! Brody finish his gymnastics class that he loved, We took family walks, we played and sat around and talked, and were able to also take some time with my mom and dad and go into D.C. for the day and play around. It was a fun filled packed weekend! And believe it or not, I didn't take that many pictures,. I know, right? who am I? but we were just having so much fun. so here are bits and pieces of our blessing weekend.
