ABBY

Daddy and Mommy like to give each of us a "coming of age" book in our 13th birthday year. It is a book that they begin writing from our birth. It is a compilation of life, from girlhood to womanhood to motherhood, even a section of being a Godly grandmother. It is a collection of thoughts from the heart of our parents on what it means to be a Christian, an "O.."(a member of our family), and a vision for our future.
To celebrate Abby's coming of age, we invited the "C" family over to join in the festivities.

Having fun:

Dinner at table 1 (it was so nice to be able to pull 2 big tables into our new dining room!):

William loves Savannah! When we told him the "C" family was coming over, he started yelling, "Nanna! Nanna!"

The men even got a little work done:
