Family Fun

Had my mom here all week. The help was very nice. I got to take a nap and/or shower every day! It was fabulous. My mom was extremely helpful. It was great having her company, and she was wonderful with Aaron and the baby.

Today was baby Grant's blessing at church. It was so nice to have family and friends attend church with us for the special occasion. We all gathered at our home afterward for a late lunch - taco salad with a great assortment of desserts: strawberry shortcake, brownies, and brownie cake. The weather cooperated and the kids were able to play outside. Overall, a lovely day! Thanks to all who attended and shared the special day with us. It was great having you!


Just a few shots of the day - pics taken by Amy Webb. Here's Aunt Martha and cousin Madelyn

Looks like lots of fun. Sorry we could not be there. Hey if you would send me some picture of Grant wearing all white that would be great. Like in his blessing outfit. That would be perfect for my project.s Thanks so much. And if you have any of Aron that would be great.
