After the christening on the way home...

This NEVER happens... my kids fell asleep in the car for the first time ever since before they were a year old...

Michale Hughs Christening

The whole reason we went to Natchez was for my dear dear friend Charlottes baby Michael Hughs christening. It was such a sweet and special day! Her cousin's baby was also christened earlier that day at another church! How special for their whole family to have two babies baptized on one day!

The girls were so cute with our explanation of what a christening is. We pretty much said it was a way to say that god loves them. Now every time we walk into a church she wants to know "where is god?"

Abigail was so excited to get to hold Michael and he was hungry so he was not so happy to be held.

Monkeying around in Natchez

The Mulberry Cottage

While we were in Natchez.... (I know I am still posting the pics, but want to get them all on here. I will be posting twice a day for the next couple of days to catch up on all our fun events!)

We spent one afternoon after naptime playing on our cute porch. The girls played with the bubbles aunt Charlotte had gotten them.

Also the girls got a Fancy Nancy doll (well one that looks like her) while we were shopping in downtown Natchez. We have been reading all the Fancy Nancy books lately and the girls LOVE her. She uses Fancy words and dresses fancy. It's a GREAT alternate to the princesses. (I am a little princessed out right now,so it's nice to hear them talk about someone else too!) It increases the girls vocabulary and their are quite a few of the books. They LOVE their new dolls and they go quite a few places with us now.

Dancing with our Fancy Nancy's!

Thanks Aunt Char for the princess bubbles!

AWWW!

Our Cottage

Here are some pics of the cottage.

This is the long hallway the girls loved running up and down.

Kitchen and breakfast nook.
Living room.

We had a back porch, but this is the only pic I got of it.


Our bedroom.
The girls bedroom. I know I took better pics of their room, but not sure which file it is in this moment. It had two twin size beds we pushed up against the wall and then put their bed rail on it.
