My little week old nephew Jude Wilder.

Jude: Praise

Wilder: Wild

May he fulfill his name and be a man of wild praise before the throne of God.

London

July 7, 2017 Bethany Shaw

My parents just moved back to the U.S and are house hunting! So glad to have Nene and Poppi closer to grandbabies, but missing their old digs in the UK! Our trip there a year ago created a yearning for more.

Reminiscing on some memories from our trip there a year ago....

We only had a couple days in the city so we hit a few of the "musts:"

The Tower of London with its blood soaked biscuit Raven connoisseurs

Hampton Court with its great halls, rose gardens, and topiary maze

Borough Market for its meat pies and mushy peas

and of course Big Ben and Changing the Guard.

In 2016 the U.S. National Parks Service celebrated its 100th birthday and in November of the same year my nephew celebrated his 1st! His parents are outdoorsy sorts of folk. The kind who will spend a week camping whilst pregnant and convince their naive six month pregnant sister to do the same. So, a National Parks Service themed birthday was fitting for their little ranger in training. The waffle iron was ket hot all morning serving brunch to hungry "campers." Partygoers explored the yard, challenged to "spot the bird's nest with binoculars" (hidden in a tree) and "find squirrel's stash" (a pile of acorns) as a part of a scavenger hunt. Kids laughed and danced along with a clever puppet show starring Herbie, a young possum on his journey to give a birthday gift to Levi. We devoured delicious s'more cakes and cupcakes and heard rumors of them being the best cupcakes ever tasted! As friends departed they took home a little bag with a medley of gummies, chocolates, and savory snacks from the trail mix bar. Such a fun way to celebrate our little Ranger Levi!
