Let The Fun Begin!

We had a wonderful week with both sets of grandparents and great grandma. We are so grateful for the support they gave to Kamren and Andrew. It truly was a special weekend.



Sweet Dreams! Andrew at four weeks!



Kamren and Ashleigh had fun going to the driving range with their dad and grandpa Woolwine. The next day Kamren went golfing on an 18 hole course with his dad and grandpas. He loved it!


In all the excitement, Ashleigh lost her first tooth eating watermelon. It was quite the treat.


I made Kamren some prayer pretzels which was part of his eight day count down before his baptism. He loved picking out a scroll each morning and finding out more about baptism.



Everything was so special about Kamren's baptism. We are so grateful for his decision to be baptized.



His cousins from Wisconsin came to support him. He loved every minute with his cousin Aaron.



Kevin had the honor to baptize Kamren.





Grandpa Staples is teaching all of the children how to play the harmonica. Oh, it is so much fun to watch.



Here are the proud grandparents and great grandma of little Andrew. This is his special blessing day.





It was so fun to have so much family here.




We sure enjoyed eating good food. We couldn't have asked for a better week of good weather.



Oh, we love sweet little Andrew.



We had a blast at the Memorial Day parade. The kids loved catching all the candy.



Here's the 3 generations.

Congrats to Kamren on his baptism. It looks like a fabulous weekend. I haven't seen you parents since college...they look great:) You have a beautiful family!

Sonja, I'm glad you had such a special weekend with your family. Nice that you could have both events happen on the same weekend. That would have taken a lot of stress off of me, but Julia would not have wanted to wait 4 months to get baptized. Do you have 3 kids born in April?
