Tony's Dedication

Things have been quiet over here lately because I was busy preparing for Tony's dedication this weekend.

We had about 25 people over - some driving in from Texas, food to get for BBQ, a Scripture to find, and a million other things that some got done and some didn't.

We didn't get to finish mowing the grass in the oppressive Southern heat on Saturday, so the hubs was up at 6 am yesterday finishing it. We had to wake Auds up and get her ready to go spend the morning with my mothers in their hotel as we had sound check at 8:30. We had just had new microphones installed and needed to make sure they were working before service. So we got her ready, got us ready got Tony brother ready and headed out to church.

Then I drove back and forth between the church and our house to let people bring the cake inside, show people to get to the church, etc., etc.

The day was so crazy that I forgot to get pictures of just Tony, Tony and us, Tony and his nanny and parrain, and Tony and the rest of the family that came in. Yes, mother of the year award goes to me. But, at least, everyone was fed, everyone had fresh squeezed lemonades and limeades, and everyone got to love on the little man.

So, without further ado, here's some pictures from TB's dedication:

Walking up front. I kid you not, Pastor's word's were: "If only y'all could see this baby's legs!"


Talking sweet about Auds who just gave him a kiss.

Running across everyone to go see Granny.

Pastor reading Tony's Scripture. God impressed upon me in prayer that it was to be Jeremiah 1:5, so that's what it was. Auds has Psalm 17:8. It's crazy how different the Scriptures are for our two babies, but yet so entirely fitting.

Tony's nanny and parrain looking on.



Auds watching.

Look at that handsome little man.

How cute is he?

Pastor praying over TB.

Little man looking around.

TB: "Excuse me, Pastor. I'm just gonna slobber all over you and chew on your jacket. "

Pastor: "I think he's leaving me a present there."

Handing TB back to his proud papa.

Praying for us.

More prayer.

It was a hectic day, but a great one. Hopefully we can have some normalcy now. :)
