Sam's Blessing Day

Sam was blessed on July 4th. We waited a few months so my family could be here. It was a great day in the middle of a great weekend. We came home from the reunion on Saturday, blessed Sam on Sunday and did all of the 4th of July celebrations on Monday (post to come). Wow! Just remembering it makes me tired.

This picture sums up the kids' thoughts on the matter. They were pretty much on overload by this point. Zac was itching to get his Sunday clothes off; Sariah was loving all the family time; Brook did not want her picture taken again; Ally just wanted to get back to playing with cousins. Thanks for your patience, guys.

We are grateful to the family who made an effort to share our special day.





We all crowded into our house for dinner after church. It was quite the party, literally. The tattoo parlor up the street from our house decided to hold an outdoor concert in the parking lot. Our street was lined with cars and we were serenaded (if you can call it that) from about 5-10 pm. Most of the lyrics involved screaming; not my favorite. It was LOUD. I was really worried that it would last all night. Good thing it didn't because we needed to be up bright and early the next morning. We love our Sam and can't imagine our family without him.
