baby i's blessing july 6th

**I am catching up on the past month but I will try to spread it out best I can. Oh, Happy Birthday to my SIL Sally and Happy Pioneer Day.

We tried to take a family photo but 2 of my children refused and even were pouting in the group photo, so we took a photo with the son who had no choice. Kim and her family and Bryan's parents already left by the time we got it together to get a photo but there are a few photos of Kim's boys wrestling after lunch. Heather and her family were there too and if you look closely, you can see her kids in the wrestling photos but it is a little difficult to really see anyone in those photos.

It was a great day and Bryan, as usual, made delicious Pulled Pork and Tri-tip. Thanks to everyone that helped with lunch, I think I can throw parties like that more often (I provided nothing but the reason to get together and I support Bryan and his lack of sleep to prepare the meat).

Cute pictures. The meat was great and so was everything else. We were glad we could be there. Why do boys always have to wrestle??? We will probably see you in a few weeks.

Where are Beebe and Dad? For that matter, where are the Righters???
I love that partial family photo of yours - you look fabulous. Way to do your hair on such a photo-op day.

Where am I in that big group photo? I thought I took ones with dad in, which I still have and I was in the ones he took. Am I losing my mind completely? (as opposed to just partially)

And I l-o-v-e, love the shirt!

Beebe was trying to take photos with her camera and Dad took photos with my camera AT THE SAME TIME. And then Beebe got in some but these looked better and I thought Beebe wouldn't want to be online FOREVER not looking fabulous (sorry Beebe, I can add it if you want).
The Righters were in Nor Caro and that is TOO FAR for a baby blessing- they were missed but Heather and her family were a great substitution (sorry Em).
