Happy 6 months, Silas!

Wow, has it really been 6 months? What fun to celebrate two birthdays together!

Thanks, Dana! Wreaths from the Hughlings!

Looking a lot like Christmas!

It may have been Thanksgiving but it was Christmas too! Becca met Silas online...thanks for Skype! April and Brian hosted Thanksgiving in Pinetops and the whole family got in the act! (Well, the ones in town!) Silas got time with greatgrandparents. Thanksgiving bumped into Christmas as we transitioned between the two holidays all in the same day! ( My options for posting seemed to have left me so here are a few to enjoy, till I figure out why it quit loading!) It was " Joy to the World" and to all of us! Blessed we were to enjoy the time together! We got to all go together to pick out our tree before Dana and Dave hit the road. We all got to pat the belly in anticipation of Baby Hughling. Our last look at her/him for a while as we await Mary Wallace Horton in March! Blessings on all the babies and mommies and daddies!

A 60th wedding anniversary , Dave meets Silas, and two mommies to be!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome to the family, Silas!

Great-grandparents, grandparents, mom and dad, aunts and uncles... Silas, you are in our arms and in our hearts!

Out of the oven! The cookie's done!

Blessed are we!

Life in the shadow!

It's just not the same without you girls on the front of the boat..... We're only a shadow of what we once were! Missed you, but tried to fill your places!
