I think this is a first: I am going to post about the weekend before Laura will!

Before I get into what we did this weekend, I want to wish my dad a happy birthday! There are so many things that I could say here about him, but for the sake of time and space, I just want to thank him for being the example that he is to me and the rest of our family. Never once did he complain about having to provide for all of us kids, and we never knew when times were hard. I am truly blessed to have a godly father and Wyatt to have a godly Papa Joe.

We spent the 4th in Blanket with Laura’s family. Most of the time, we were just sitting around, or enjoying the back porch. Friday afternoon, Delbert pulled out some BB and pellet guns that he had found in some pawn shops. As much as Delbert and I may not want to admit it, Hayden definitely gave us a lesson.

Friday night we drove over to Comanche to enjoy the fireworks show. Silly me forgot my tripod, but I tried to get the best picture that I could. Delbert and Brenda picked the perfect spot, as the fireworks were shooting off right next to the moon!

Saturday, Clint, Tonya, and their boys came in. We quickly found out that they were no longer curious as to where Aunt Lala and Uncle Slade were. They were only concerned with where Baby Wyatt was, and what he was doing. Parker was the cutest of all, always wanting to help hold him, or make sure that Wyatt was ok when he was crying.

Finally, we got a picture of all five of the grandons. Wyatt didn’t want to open his eyes, but the rest of them more than made up for it.

Without providing many details, I just wanted to let everyone know that my beautiful wife and I are in our nation’s capitol, Washington, D.C. I am going to leave all the updates to her, as she will be alone while I attend Blackboard training.

As a short preview of what we have done so far, I provide the following picture:

Oh, and for what it matters, I got to shake the hand of Mark Dever, as well as share a brief conversation with Bill Behrens, an elder at Capitol Hill Baptist Church. Too bad Laura had to visit the ladies room, otherwise she could have met them too.
