Ryan 5 Months Old

Derek the Bobcat

Derek received his Bobcat award in Cub Scouts. He's been very excited to get his patch. We are very proud of the work he put into it. The tradition stands that when the scout pins his mother he is to give her a kiss and hug afterward. He was too embarrassed to do that in front of the crowd, so I grabbed him, dipped him, and gave him a big wet one on his cheek. Dave then grabbed him and did the same. Now he truly understands the meaning of embarrassed. Just doin' our job. :)

Surprisingly...

...We didn't run out of frosting.

Ryan is a Blessing

Ryan's blessing day came one day after Derek's baptism on Sunday, September 5, 2010. Sadly I really couldn't hear most of the blessing. Two little girls were talking so loud behind me and then the microphone wasn't up close enough to Dave's mouth. I'm sure it was a great blessing though. :( I did hear that Ryan is blessed with a great sense of humor, that he would be a missionary, and that he is blessed with health and strength. The sense of humor I can already see!

Ryan and Grandpa David and Grandma Judy. (Sadly, I forgot to take a picture of him with my parents.)

My mom crocheted this blanket for our family when Derek was a baby.

Candid. Not posed..we aren't THAT sappy around here. :)

The audience. Watching what? You might ask...

I love the men in their Sunday get-up.
