Outsourcing our parenting

I was going to apologize and explain that I had been busy with May's blessing for the past week, and that's why I didn't blog. But most of you who read this were invited to the blessing, so I figure you understand.

We're still unpacking and settling back in, so I won't post for long other than to thank everyone for their kindness and help. (Special shout-outs to my mom and dad for hosting, Skip for a simple lovely ceremony, and Nikki and Steve for being generically wonderful to our entire family.)

I will, however, take advantage of what Christopher and I call "the outsourcing of our parental duties" and link to the wonderful photos taken by our friend (and personal family photog) Jen Hoberman and Nielsen family friend, Marsha Nordstrom.
