Kylee's visit...

So, Kylee got to choose where we had
lunch and did she make a great choice or what?
Guess what my mother ordered?




We all had a great time at Folly beach...




Even the sky was celebrating Kylee's recovery!!




Kylee and I made the "long" hike to see the Morris Island
lighthouse. I say "long" hike because my mother
and Aunt Dina chose to turn around and go back to the Air
conditioned car before we even got see to the lighthouse!
It was very pretty!

Celebrating Emma's Baptism

Traditions...

The hard part is over for Emma, she has been Baptized.
Now, it is time to celebrate and Emma is ready!
Maybe she is trying to Greek Dance.




It would not be a celebration without a rap from
Uncle Barney, it has become a family tradition!



Emma had to check out the Bling for herself!
Are you taking notes??




Surprisingly, Emma even got to spent some
time with her mother!

More family fun

Teri took about a hundred pictures of Emma
in this chair and I took about fifty!
Here are my two favorites...






Emma, you know musical talent runs in your family.
You are getting an early start!




Is that Woody?



He is in good hands!

Woody Time...

Even Woody came out to celebrate Emma's
Baptism. He has really grown...



Uncle Barney with Woody...6 feet 6 inches vs. 21 inches!!



It was so wonderful to be able to hold Woody this trip...



So Small, So Sweet!!!

It is June 14th...

That means it is Flag Day...
The Army's Birthday...



And...
Mama & Baba's Anniversary!!!



They have been married for 38 LOOOONG years!!
Baba claims he has been married for 76 years
because he gets two for one credit for being
married to my mother!

I think they are very lucky because
they both have wonderful hearts.

Congratulations...I love you!!!

It must be love...

A long, hot day at the Farmer's Market...
What better way to celebrate 38 years of marriage!







After all these years of marriage Mama
still has to help Baba get dressed...



Because if she didn't he would look like
this all the time!



Any questions??

Emma's Baptism

It is Emma's Baptism.
Look at those incredible lips!! She is ready to be the
star for the day!!



Emma and I had some time to spend with each other
in the back of the church before the ceremony started...



She gave me some pointers on how to
decorate a candle because she has heard of
my history with decorating baptismal candles.



Sweet, sweet Emma it is almost time!!

A special moment

Uncle Jeff will you tell me what's going on here...



Thea Chrissy...



Help!!!



I'm okay. It's almost over!!

She did it...

She survived...



and so did her parents!!

Sleeping Beauty!!

Emma had a very long day...




She looks just like a Madame Alexander doll...



She just needed a power nap...



And to be in her mother's arms!!

And the Baptism comes to an end

Emma looks very content being with her Nouna and Nouno



What a wonderful day



Emma with her parents and Godparents
