Birthdays!

Last month we celebrated my sister's 27th birthday and my grandmommy's 70th birthday. I love when we have birthdays because our entire family gathers and we have fun talking about old memories and just hanging out together. For Michelle's birthday we (40 of us) went to dinner then headed to the Miller Outdoor Theater to "watch" cats. After dad and grant drew whiskers on their face, I knew it was a lost cause and that we should head to the parking lot to beat the crowd. It was a good idea but probably not so good for the guys.

Harper is changing every day. She is doing an army crawl, sitting up with no support, drinking through a straw and eating baby food. Her favorite so far seems to be sweet potatoes - just like her mama.

My Beautiful Sister, Michelle

Baby Dedication

We had Harper’s baby dedication a couple Sundays ago and it was such a nice day. About 15 parents and newborns participated in the parent/child commitment ceremony at Second Baptist Church. This was an opportunity for Grant and me to commit ourselves to raise Harper in the discipline and instruction of our Lord. It also provides an opportunity for our church to commit to partner with our parents and assist us in laying a strong spiritual foundation for her. Everything turned out perfect for that day. The weather, her dress and of course excellent company. Here are a few pictures of Harper’s special day.
