Dedication
On August 28th, we got Justus dedicated at church. We wanted to give him back to the Lord, and make a public statement that we are going to do our best to raise him in a Godly home. Poor Nick woke up that morning with a migraine, but with lots of prayers, he didn't barf on stage and he ended up feeling better! Most of our friends and family came out to support us! Thank you all, and we will continue to need your prayers in raising Justus! It was a crazy-busy time and unfortunately we hardly got any pictures, here are just a couple...
Camping
We took Justus on his 2nd camping trip to Boulder Basin labor day weekend. It was hard but fun. Justus had a TERRIBLE time sleeping 2 of the nights. He would wake up and scream and would only calm down if I fed him. Nick decided to make a new "tent pad" further into our camp site, in hopes Justus wouldn't be so loud for the other campers, and for extra privacy. After a few hours of work...moving logs, digging and evening out the terrain, we were ready for our move. We moved our tent, and the 3rd night, Justus slept amazing. He only woke up once, but then we were woken up by rain @ like 5:00am! We were worried that because Nick moved all this fresh dirt, we would end up in a mud slide. :) We got up, checked things out, cleaned up our site so our things wouldn't get ruined in the rain, and tried to go back to sleep. We couldn't fall back asleep so we ended up just packing up. :) We still had fun though...we went hiking, played some canasta (Nick beat me both times), played smashball, ate s'mores, and relaxed! Nick even took Justus out hiking and let me snag a nap! Oh so wonderful! Justus is kind of at a hard age for camping, he's not quite old enough to walk around and enjoy things, but he wants everything and wants to be mobile.
