Special Day!

Last week we went to Andrew and Heather's church to see Connor dedicated.



Here's Connor beforehand, wearing suspenders and a bow tie.



Cassie sitting with Grandpa before church started,




Connor was crying up there and ended up getting handed back to Heather.  :)






Heather, Andrew, Cassie and Connor after church.




It happened to be my birthday that day, so we went out for lunch after church.





After fussing and crying in church, Connor was full of smiles at the restaurant.


It was a great way to spend my birthday; seeing my grandson dedicated!

Cassie looks like an angel. I’ve seen that happen at church when the children act up, cry or won’t cooperate. It’s amusing for the audience as if to say, “been there”

Conner is how old now? He’s a big baby boy and so cute! Those legs! Reminds me of Navy. He was a chunk with tree trunks for legs. By the time he was 4, he was skinny. Running around, playing soccer. Conner looks so handsome in his suspenders and bow tie. Too cute.

Happy Birthday 🎈🎉🎂

Such a sweet time. He's a handsome little man! We've been fortunate enough to see several of our grands' dedication ceremonies.

He looks so cute in those suspenders! What a great day. And I can already see that he is beginning to look a bit like Cassie.

Hi Mari! What a special birthday seeing that precious grandson of yours dedicated to the Lord! He looks so handsome and I love the picture of your daughter and her family. Wow, there is quite a family resemblance. Your daughter looks just like a younger version of you and you are both beautiful! I hope you have a great week!

Well Happy Birthday! Typical mom/grandma: "It HAPPENED to be my birthday...", when all else is said and done, putting everyone else first. It's a beautiful thing to have family though, those grandchildren are beautiful. I'm glad you had a nice day with them. :)

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!
Your grandson and his sister look so much alike - you can tell they are 'cute' siblings. Beautiful day when a baby gets dedicated. I am so glad. All babies cry don't they? lol

Oh Mari, what a special day for you and the entire family. That outfit of Connor's is adorable and the closeup of Cassie is a prize winner. Happy birthday last Sunday...
I actually giggled out loud when I saw the restaurant photo of Conner. What a cutie pie.

These pictures are precious! Heather looks great and I cannot believe how big my Cassie has grown. And that Connor! What a little heartbreaker! Andrew is a fortunate man and I'm sure he knows it. Congratulations to all and yes what a happy birthday for you! xoxo
