Sam's recital was Friday night. On Saturday we all gathered at my brother's house. It was a day filled with making memories, cousins, eating, celebrating, munching, visiting, encouraging, laughing, and lots of LOVING!!!
We jumped on the tramp and rode horses.
We played with the puppies.
The Rocket Launch (always a big hit with the cousins)
Introducing...
The Reason for our Big Party - The Graduate, Sam
We all circled around. The men of our group shared memories and gave Sam godly advice as he begins a new journey.
What is a party without sweets?
Both sets of grandparents (my parents on the right)

All of us playing baseball
Just plain ol' cuteness!

The huddle... The Set up...
The Play!
It was a very special day. This is the beginning of a new chapter for our extended family. Our children are becoming adults. Fun!

How great to see a God Honoring blossoming family!
I was able to be a part of a large family when I was growing up just by association and always wanted to have 8 children!
Pray that one day you will be able to start that camp. I look forward to following your blog and getting to know you better.
