Leslie's Blessing - and other tidbits

Yesterday we were able to bless Leslie - the day was great. The weather was sunny and we had a great time visiting with friends and family.

The cute babe: Josh and I bought the dress in Ecuador almost six years ago while we were down there. We bought it with the intention of blessing our first daughter in it. He blanket was crocheted by my mom.


Adam was not very happy about having to leave play with friends and cousins to come take a family picture. :)

Four Generations:
Great Grandma Tolman, Grandma and Grandpa Tolman, Mom and Dad, Leslie

Great Grandma and Grandpa Adams, Grandma and Grandpa Harris, Mom and Dad, Leslie
Jill's Family

Josh's Family
An attempt to get pictures of all the kids. Twelve kids under the age of five - nine of which are two and younger - what a feat!! For those of you who were there and took pictures of the kids, will you please send it to me.

Jenn and Mike stayed with their girls and helped clean up the aftermath of all those kiddos - they had such a fun time. These pictures were taken after some of the cleaning had already been done - scary.

Saturday night we went to Shawnee and Travis's hotel and let the kids swim. It has been such a long time since we have been swimming. I thought Adam did great in the little floating ring considering it was his first time on his own. I was surprised he was so willing to let go of Josh. Swimming lessons are a definite for this summer.

Tyler - I love that little smile.

We went to Big Jud's last week with Josh's Aunt and Uncle and family. We took a picture of Leslie next to a Big Jud. Here is a picture of Adam with a Big Jud at about the same age.
