Tag's Dedication

We had Tag Wyatt dedicated at our church this past Sunday on Mother's Day! It was a special baby blessing and a time to pray over this sweet child that God has given us. Our whole family got to come up front and have our pastor, our families, and our church family pray for Tag and for us as we raise him up to know God. It was a wonderful day!

Check out Claire's "church panties"... :) Gotta love those monogrammed bloomers.



Aunt Jen and Austin







Gran and six of her grandkids... (Peter and Caroline weren't able to be with us on Sunday! Bran and Nat spend Mother's Day weekend with Nat's sweet parents...)



Mom and her girls



Tag trying to be all big standing up...






Getting Daddy's face....






Some pics of my nephew Austin out in our garden. We are going to miss this little guy!





After church, we had a great lunch together at our house and just all hung out in our backyard around the pool and goofed off. The weather was awesome...it was a perfect Mother's Day!



Reefs...




Walking boy!


Having fun on the swing..




Thank you Lord for the blessing of Tag. He is such a perfect gift from You!

Bugz

Logan was in a 1st and 2nd grade musical last week called Bugz. It was a lot of fun....and he did a super job! Thanks Mom, Austin, Leonard and Liz for coming to see him perform that day...and to Boo and Chris who came that night for the evening performance. He loved seeing you there!





Check out the little girl in the bottom right corner digging for gold.... ha! She would just die if she knew I captured that in this pic. :)

















Baseball

Logan is having fun playing coach pitch baseball this season. Here are a few pics of our big guy at the plate...








Pretty nice swing there, Logan!



And two of his biggest fans cheering him on...

Sillies

Our kids have had a serious case of the sillies lately. Here are some fun pics over the last few weeks...

Beth and her chocolate pudding face...



Loves the toes!


Faith Anna's post-braid hair...


Beth's famous "cock-eyed look"...playing in the bouncehouse at Jessica's birthday party.



Austin and Tag playing at the party too...a little too young for the bounce house. Don't worry, your day will come, boys!



The girls decided to use every barrette and clip they could find in their drawer to do their hair the other morning...





Tag's not so sure about all the barettes... "Who is this holding me?" But he's still sporting that precious little half-smile that he gives us. That's Luke's favorite grin...

Nice side view of Faith's "do" while they were testing a homemade boat to see if it would float in our kitchen sink...


I don't know about you, but I think she has some hair talent! Especially the way it coordinates with Logan's old spider-man jammies...



Silly in the saucer...with that big 'ol dimple just like Beth's...

Let's go to the Huntin' Camp...

We got to go and spend time at my Aunt Tag and Uncle Joe's hunting camp in April...and boy did we have fun! We all enjoyed the gorgeous weather and went fishing, 4-wheeling, and exploring. It was a great time and they are such gracious hosts. We just love spending time with them! And as a bonus, my cousin Tobie and her two kids, Hannah and Haden, got to come out and spend the day with us. We can't wait to go back....

I think Beth looks so grown up in this picture.... and Tag of course loving being held by her.



One of my personal favorite pastimes at camp... swinging.



Logan loved doing anything with Uncle Joe.





And Faith Anna loved doing anything with Auntie...


Beth just loved doing anything...didn't really matter who it was with! :)


Learning how to fix a flat...



Loving on Daddy.


I love this pic. The girls went exploring down one of the trails hand-in-hand...


Hannah and Haden


Tough guy...

Sharing in her Daddy's love for fishing...




While everyone else was fishing, Faith Anna was sporting polka-dot sunglasses while picking flowers and singing at the top of her lungs...



Tobie and her kids... Haden looks worn out. It was pretty hot that day....



Posing for the camera... Beth with her sunglasses and Faith Anna with her newly found treasure that she hunted up out in the woods... a turtle shell!



Tobie loving on the little rock star.



Hannah teaching him how to ride a 4-wheeler...



Look at that sweet grin. Looks like he likes it!






Taking an ice cream break at the end of the trip. Always gotta save time for ice cream...
