The Stapletons (Part II)

Our sweet little friend Lavinia was baptized last week.  She is a little angel here on earth, so Christlike and an excellent example.  Her family are from Romania are are some of the sweetest people that we know.  She was so beautiful in her white dress.  She was carried in to the water, and Bruder Egly baptized her.  When it was over, Aaron cried out "She DID it!!"

 It was a beautiful day and we are so happy for Lavinia and her family.

 Scott was gone for work this week, so the boys and I spend one late afternoon hiking.  There is a beautiful little hotel/restaurant at the top of this hill over looking Vaals in the Netherlands.  I was sad to hear that they were closing their doors on Friday, so I decided to go up and have a little something to eat to support them and enjoy the view before they closed.

They didn't have macaroni and cheese, which was a GREAT disappointment to the boys. :)  

We had a delicious Schnitzel with mushroom sauce, Fries and a Salad.

 Preceding our meal, we had had a nice hike, and the boys did great not crying until the last half!  So, I thought that it went pretty well!

In this contraption, you can lay down and listen to the woods.

 Aaron and Timmy liked crawling inside and telling each other Disney stories instead. 

 Nothing like showering, crawling into your jammies, and having a refreshing chocolate milk before bed, after a long day hiking.  Goodnight boys!!!
