Matthew's Blessing

We spur of the moment (well, like a week before) decided that the first week in June would be the only time to bless Matthew and have Ray's parents be able to attend.  So, we did it then even though Ray had a work conference in Cleveland and didn't get home until midnight on Saturday (June 4th)

I wanted to do a dinner/get together the night before so I didn't have to worry about it on Sunday, even thought Ray couldn't come.  I just got sandwiches from Wal-Mart, it is a sweet deal.  For $25.00 you get a 6 foot sub (which really is way bigger than 36 inches), plus lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mayo & mustard all on the side.  It was super easy and we all had a good time. I, of course, didn't take any pictures of the dinner. Tennille and Whit were out of town, so they didn't get to come and my dad had youth conference so my parents skipped out on the dinner and just drove up Sunday morning.


Not the best picture, but you can see how CHUBBY he is getting

I also should of taken pictures with the grandparents, but we were doing good to get this picture and be on time!  We are all so glad to have Matthew in our family.  He is getting SO chubby.  He smiles a lot and we all love him and think he is the cutest baby ever!

If you didn't see my sneaky April, and May posts (I changed the dates for my future blurb book, so they would be in the right month) they are in those months even though I just did the May one today.  Stay tuned for our Disneyland vacation pictures!

All your posts make me wish I was your neighbor still! I love how chubby Matthew is I want to squeeze him. Kara's hair is so long and pretty! I didn't know you felt that sick after the baby was born!? I wish I had helped! Your family looks so huge! The Ray shirt is awesome. And I love Ray's look over his birthday cake, it's so him.
