Kelsey's Finished Quilt

Several years later...and several blog posts later...and we have a finished product to show!  Kelsey finally got her quilt!  It probably could have been ready for her at Christmas had Linda worked all night for a week or so to hand stitch the binding, but it didn't happen.  That's all right since the days were colder and she needed a warmer blanket in December.  For now, it's going to work just great through the warmer spring and summer Texas nights.  Enjoy!

John's Baptism

We had a wonderful day with John on the 2nd of February!  Friends and family showed up to support our boy get baptized!  John was super excited!  He could hardly stand still long enough for the pictures.  He wanted to run circles around the church...but he was able to contain his excitement through the brief talks and songs.

Once in the font, his happiness still couldn't be dampened by the bit of chill to the water.  Ah well.  He did get the fun experience of being immersed twice (darn toe poking above the surface). I am told that's just what happened to Daddy.  Oh...like father like son.  It's not a bad thing.

We did think this picture would be kinda fun...maybe a little sacrilegious...but still makes us laugh at the mergers you can get when you position things just right in photos (see the hands on Shawn's head?).  Shows the personalities of our boys.  Congrats, John!
