We had a baby dedication at church recently and this is a picture of Grant and I right after we received his very own first Bible (man it's hard to get three month olds to look at the camera :)
These are pictures of a recent baptism we had at church between two young men that we like to affectionately call little Bruno and big Bruno. Big Bruno is Bruno Vargas who has attended church with his family since the beginning of the church here. He's recently taken on a little more responsibility with the youth group and so when little Bruno (son of Maggie who was recently baptized as well) decided to be baptized it was really special that big Bruno was able to do the honors! Little Bruno was so excited to put the Lord on in baptism that every day in the week leading up the Sunday of his baptism he kept telling his mom... I wish today was Sunday! Amen Bruno!

This is our newest I have to be just like Daddy manifestation, Nathan's "gaming glove" oh the joys of boyness that I have to look forward to :)
Nathan's newest found love is singing "Happy Birthday" all over the house and then pretending to blow out the candles :) It's even better for him when it's an actual birthday party, and his daddy's was no exception. In the first picture we had just begun singing to Maggie one of our sisters in Christ who shares Gary's birthday (standing next to Gary) and you can see that Nathan had already assumed the position. When Maggie blew out the candles instead of Gary and Nathan, my little man fell apart. Because little did he know we were going to light them again and sing to Gary as well. The next picture is of him and his daddy moving in for the kill and then in the last picture Nathan made sure his daddy had plenty of help :)
A beautiful sunset off our kitchen balcony! What a marvelous God and Creator we serve!
