A Very Special Day...

A couple of weeks ago we had the honor of seeing two of our nieces make a committment to Christ and be baptized- it was such a special day for our family!!
Praying over Brylee Grace after her baptism...
Whew, that was cold- but worth it!

Are you ready, Blakely?

Family Happenings

It's been a busy summer around Weskan- lots of happenings within the family...here are a few of the highlights...hope they make you smile!
Our beautiful nieces both lost teeth and are showing off their teeth-missing grins!
Shelly & Tracy celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary in early August- 25 beautiful years together- everyone who knows them can tell right away there is something special about their marriage- we all learn so much by just watching how they love each other and their family! They're surrounded by their kids- Beau & Kari (the newlyweds!), Danica, & Gabe.

Summer isn't summer without a little porch sittin' on a warm summer evening. Eli enjoyed crawling all around Grandpa's feet!

More Wedding Pics

Trinity was so excited to dance the night away...thankfully, her cousin Danica obliged her wish!

That sure is a pretty flower, Grandma...I wonder what it tastes like...

Mommy & her prince.




The Wedding

The wedding party. It was such a beautiful wedding...full of love from family & friends! We're thrilled to welcome Kari into our family!

Eli entertaining Unlces Ty & Tracy before the wedding.
Trinity practiced walking up the aisle with Brennan & Blakely at the rehearsal...she has been so excited for weeks to walk up the aisle at Beau & kari's wedding in her Cinderella dress. When the moment actually came, she got scared...there were way too many people for our princess to walk down the aisle. She may not have made it down the aisle, but she sure did look cute all dressed up!







Rehearsal Dinner

Finally, the weekend arrived for our nephew Beau to marry a wonderful woman, Kari, in Beatrice, NE. We all loaded into cars and headed up north for the blessed event!
Some friends of ours have a little boy, Gage, 2 weeks younger than Eli. It was so funny to see them interact with each other. They'd babble and babble at/to each other as if they knew exactly what the other was saying!
Yummy- Daddy gives me the good stuff! Eli has his first taste of York, Peppermint Patti- needless to say, he liked it!

Eli's Escapdes

Here he is crawling through the maze of chair legs...I really think he enters in and tries to see where he can come out at!
Eli & Papa playing
10 months old...my goodness, I can't believe he's only 8 weeks from being a year old! He can stand by himself...when he wants to...it's quicker for him to crawl...he will give you a beautiful giggle when you play peek-a-boo...and his smile melts your heart!
While the other kids were swimming Eli was swinging...we looked over and he was just about asleep...it'd been a long day!

And, he's out like a light!






Playtime with Trinity

Small, but mighty...the swimming tank at Mimi & Papa's may be small, but it is full of fun for the kids...they'd stay in all day if we let them!
Trinity & Brennan were playing outside- Trinity would pick flowers, hand them to Brennan, and then he's pile them up...they had their own system of what they were doing with them!
No, they're not fighting, they're dancing!
This is one of my favorite pics from the weekend at Mimi & Papa's...Trinity & Mimi saying, "CHEESE!"
