Here's a pretty good family picture, taken at a wedding recently. Vashti was very excited that we were invited, primarily so she could put Evelyn in this poofy dress. The wedding was at the new building our church recently purchased.

Mushed-up prunes can be dangerous.

time with family

I had a week off between quarters, so we were able to spend some time with my mom's family in Michigan and Vashti's parents and siblings in Tennessee/Georgia, and then my sister and her son drove out from Virginia to be with us this week.

Our first fathers' day together.

Vashti's dad chose a unique approach to baby feeding.

My mother-in-law and me at Luna Falls in Georgia.

Evelyn's first swim. The water was a little chilly at first, but she really enjoyed it, even being splashed by her cousin, Jonah.

I love my cousin THIS much!

it don't mean a thing if...

Somebody in our neighborhood put this kids' swing on the curb, and we were shameless enough to take it. There was already a rope attached to a tree in our backyard all ready to go. The golf shoes I'm wearing are Evelyn's fathers' day gift to me! They haven't done much for my handicap yet...

Our little baby, doing her best Bjorn Borg imitation.


Swinging is so fun!

But it's pretty tiring, too.
