Samuel's swings

Nine years ago December 13th my sister and brother - in - law had a baby boy named Samuel. He died in the womb due to a cord death. He was perfect. The whole thing is like nothing I have ever experienced, but I am so thankful for all of it. Their strength has shown so much to me. Shannon and Jerry are awesome. It is so hard to have a child die, but they are the best parents to the three other children that they have and I know Samuel is so happy that they are doing so well . I know that the whole experience touched people's lives in ways nobody knows. They got these swings in memory of him for their church. We had so much fun when we celebrated his 9th birthday and dedicated the swings to him. How awesome!!!

All the cousins had a blast at Samuels swings dedication. We are so thankful to be part of this family!!

More fun at Brewsters. Somehow I always manage to save these backwards. This is Hailey and her friend Brady.

Brook!!! We love her. She is so much fun. Brooke and Brady's dad is in the band.

Henley and her cousin Carley. Henley wasn't going to come, but then found out Carley was coming and decided she needed to be there too. The love to hang out when they can. We should do more with them.

Last Saturday night we went to see Five Card Draw at Brewster Street down town. They are friends and we had a blast.

Bruce and his cousin Darren. We were so glad they came out and we had a blast with he and his family!!!

Getting in the Christmas spirit!

Harley, Henley, Megan and Marin all walked in the Children's Christmas Parade last Saturday. Grandpa took them down there and walked with them. We all had other things to do, but they had a blast with grandpa!

My friend Kim had a Christmas brunch Saturday morning. It was a lot of great food and fun.
