Life Is Great: ONE BUSY SUMMER!

BEFORE AND AFTER PICTURES ARE FUN..
RODNEY HAD TO HAVE HAND SURGERY.
AS THEY WERE PACKING THEIR STUFF TO MOVE INTO THEIR NEW HOUSE, THE WEEK BEFORE WE LEFT ON TREK, RODNEY SHOT HIMSELF IN THE HAND WITH HIS BEBE GUN. THE SAFETY OBVIOUSLY DOESN'T WORK AND AS HE WAS MOVING IT.
IT WENT OFF AND LODGED A BEBE INTO HIS HAND.
HE IS SMILING BECAUSE HE HASN'T HAD THE SURGERY YET, THIS IS 3 DAYS AFTER BRIELLE WAS BORN SO I TOOK HIM FOR THIS...........................

THIS IS AFTER. NOTICE THE HAND. IT WAS A LITTLE MORE COMPLICATED THEN THEY HAD PREDICTED BECAUSE THE BEBE HAD RUSTED AND THEY HAD TO DO SOME MAJOR CLEANING WHILE THEY WERE IN THERE. HE WAS LOTS OF FUN TO WAKE UP!
HE WAS SO TIRED FROM MOVING, THE BABY BEING BORN AND COVERING FOR US WITH THE BUSINESS WHILE WE WERE ON TREK THAT IT TOOK 2 HOURS TO WAKE HIM UP. I THINK HE COULD HAVE SLEPT ALL DAY.....

WE WELCOMED BRIELLE AUTUMN SMITH INTO OUR FAMILY ON JULY 25, RIGHT AFTER TREK. SHE IS A SUCH A JOY. SHE WAS 8 LBS, 2OZ AND 18 INCHES LONG..

PROUD GRANDPA!

MAY 27, AFTER 2 YEARS OF DATING ELIZA MARRIED TYLER AND HAD THE ONLY NICE DAY, WEATHER WISE, OUT OF THE WHOLE WEEKEND. IT WAS A WONDERFUL TIME AND THEY ARE A BEAUTIFUL COUPLE!

THEY HAD A PHOTO BOOTH THAT ALL THE GUESTS HAD TO GO THROUGH ON THEIR WAY INTO THE BACK YARD, AT THE RECEPTION, AND AFTER THEY HAD THEIR PICTURES TAKEN THEY PUT ONE OF THE PICTURE CLIPS INTO THE GUEST BOOK AND THE OTHER ONE THEY GOT TO KEEP. IT WAS TONS OF FUN!
