The Wedding

Well, I didn't get very many pictures because my son decided to be AWFUL at the rehearsal and right before the wedding. But the good news is, he was pretty good during the actual service and for the pictures afterward. He walked down the isle wonderfully and then stood at the front for a few seconds before putting the pillow on the floor and standing on it. Then he started throwing the rose petals that were scattered on the floor up in the air, but it was that cute kind of misbehaving, so it was ok. I did have to get him down from the stage when he got right in front of the bride and groom and started throwing the rose petals at them, but he just came quietly with me and sat with me during the service. Overall he really did pretty well. Oh and Jay did too! :)

I guess tuxedos are out for the wedding party these days, but he was still cute!

My handsome boys! Andrew is saying "cheese"....too funny!

This is Kory, one of our youth who went to the wedding with us. Matt (the groom) was his disciple now leader this year.

Summer update

Our summer is off and running. It's a crazy time of year for youth ministers. Jay will be gone a total of 4 weeks in two months! I think this picture summarizes how Jay will feel when it's all said and done.

This next week is VBS and then this coming weekend Jay is doing a wedding for one of our Eastland kids. Oh and Andrew will be the ringbearer in this wedding...hopefully cute cute pictures will be forthcoming. I say hopefully because there is always the chance that he'll turn into the devil and not cooperate. I plan on having some great new toy as an incentive to not do this....great parenting, I know.

Uncle Jerrys' Wedding

My (Christi's) brother got married in May so Andrew and I headed to Carthage. (Jay had to go to a graduation). We got to see Andrew's favorite cousin, Alyson there.

They had cameras on the tables at the reception and Andrew thoroughly enjoyed taking pictures. It was sooo funny...Alyson would pose and Andrew would take her picture. Too cute!

Andrew's last day of school

Andrew did so great in school this year! So great, in fact, that he will be going all day and be in a regular preschool classroom starting next year! I'm fairly anxious about this, but I really believe that he's ready for it. He's speaking so much clearer and has really never really struggled socially...as you can see in the picture below with his friend Jayton.

We will miss Ms. Becky though. She has been so wonderful! Even after being out of school for a few weeks now, he still asks about her several times a week.
