the fourth of july 2017


Such a nice evening with the O'Quinn families!
Hamburgers and hot dogs cooked on the grill.
All the sides you could possibly want.
And this delicious red, white, and blue cake.


Harry had two pieces!


Our numbers were very few this year. but the fellowship was amazing.
Heading over to the golf course to watch the fireworks show.



All lined up to watch the show.



Glow sticks...
they glow in the dark.



Our sweet hostess Liz and Charlotte.

Thankful that God has allowed us to live in this country.
the United States of  America,
where we are free to worship our God, 
do things that are fun,
 speak what we believe.
There is no where else that even comes close.
How very blessed we are!!
Hurray for the USA!!

walt's first 4th of july


Hamburgers, baked beans, and potato chips.
Flags. and red, white, and blue.
Walt is a citizen of the USA!!
He loves it!
Especially the ice cream and brownies.
Second meal with Grammy and Granddaddy.
This time I brought out some of the old baby toys.
He loved the cars and the tools.
He is so adorable.


I got out my red plates...
went in the yard and gathered a small bouquet of flowers
for the the celebration.
What a joy to have everyone gathered around our table.


Walt eating his ice cream and brownie.
He loves to eat!!

Thankful tonight for this child.
Before he came I wondered...
will I love him as much as the others?
The first time I saw him I knew.
There is always enough love to go around.
God's love is bountiful,
pure,
never ending,
complete,
perfect.
You chose Walt for us dear Father.
We are grateful!
