Happy Father's Day!

The day before VBS was Nathan's first real Father's Day. Real meaning with Evelyn named and on the outside. Last Father's Day he got a hatchet (that seemed fatherish), but we didn't even know at that point if Evie was a boy or girl! We've decided that these holidays are much more fun once you have a child to share them with. Evie woke up bright and early on Sunday all ready to help Daddy celebrate. Patience doesn't really run in our family so we opened gifts first thing while we were all still in bed. Evelyn loved helping. :)

New speakers for the car weren't quite as exciting as she had hoped... Thankfully Nathan thought they were. ;)

Putting them together though was pretty interesting!

The night before Father's Day we took a picnic out to the James River and enjoyed it with Nathan's parents. It was fun celebrating a double Father's Day! Unfortunately we didn't take any pictures. :( It was a lovely evening though with a nice breeze off the river. The elder Mortiers (;)) brought their canoe which was great and Evie enjoyed wading in the river.

The week of Father's Day we also went to CDR's Fatherhood 365 Father's day picnic with Kizzy, Jason and Bella. Kizzy worked at Ferguson with me and Evie and Bella were born less than a week a part. It was so good to see them again! Look at all of Bella's gorgeous curls. The picnic was nice - good, free food and free Fatherish gifts for the kids (ie a board book on tools, a tools puzzle and a frisbee - Nathan and Evelyn were thrilled! ;)).IMG_0481.JPG
Happy belated Father's Day, Nathan!!!
